Using Newton's law that  F = ma.

The force here is the net force.  The forces acting in opposite direction are the weight and the air resistance. The weight of course is acting downwards and the air  resistance is pushing upwards.

Therefore:

W -  AR  = ma                    W = Weight = mg,  AR = Air Resistance = 150.
                                           g = 10 m/s2
mg  - AR  = ma

60(10) - 150 = 60a
600  -  150   = 60a
450 = 60a
60a = 450
a = 450/60
a = 7.5 m/s2

Cheers.

Elements that easily transmit electricity and heat display the property known as conductivity.
Musya8 [376]


True.

Conductivity is the ability to transmit heat, electricity or sound. Conductivity is a physical property.

A physical property is one which can be measured  or observed without changing the composition or identity of a the substance.

Conductivity is a physical property because the composition of the substance does not change.

A copper wire is still  a copper wire when it is conducting electricity. Like wise, an aluminum rod is still an aluminum rod when heated. It is conducting heat but the heat does not change it, it is still  an aluminum rod during the whole process.

Similarities and differences between<br> distance Time graph and velocity time<br> graph?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Similarity: >>Time is independent variable and such is on the x-axis. ... >>Distance time graph tells you how much distance you have travelled, while velocity time graph tells you your acceleration.  The difference between them is that the velocity-time graph reveals the speed of an object (and whether it is slowing down or speeding up), while the position-time graph describes the motion of an object over a period of time.

Student pushes a 50 N block across the floor for a distance of 15 m how much work was done to move the block
Talja [164]

Answer:

750 J

Explanation:

We have a student that pushes a 50N block  across the floor for a distance of 15m. The question is asking how much work was done to move the block.

To solve this, we must know that we are looking for a certain thing called joules. And to get the answer, we must follow the formula of W = FS

F being the force and S being the distance.

W = FS

W = (50)(15)

W = 750

Therefore, 750 joules is our answer.
