Answer:

a=2m/s^2

Explanation:

If a cart of 4 kg mass has a force of 8 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration

first foremost, we define basic terms

Mass=is the quantity of matter in a body ,kg

Acceleration= change in velocity per time(m/s^2)

Force= Is that which tends to change a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line.

It is also the pull or push on a body.

From newton's second law of motion which states that rate of change in momentum is proportional to the force applied. Where k=1

Fαm(v/t)

F=km(v/t)

K=1

f=ma

Since v/t= acceleration

velocity/time=accel

8=4a

a=8/4

a=2m/s^2

Two objects 5 kg and 7 kg are attached to the end of inextensible string which passes over frictionless pulley
Bumek [7]

Answer:

ans:

tenson(T) = 20 N

acceleration (a) = 2.86 m/s

Explanation:

T + mg = Mg

T = Mg - mg

T = g( M - m )

T = 10× ( 7-5 )

T = 20 N

again;

T = 20

Ma = 20

a = 20 / 7

= 2.86 m/s

How is a projectile different from an object in free fall
aksik [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Projectile Motion. Projectile motion is different than free fall: it involves two dimensions instead of one. ... Balls traveling in two dimensions, only one of which experiences acceleration, require two sets of equations: one set for the x-direction and the other for the y-direction.

The histogram below shows the number of downloads of a song over time.
Allisa [31]

Given data:

  • It is a graphical display where the data is grouped in to ranges
  • A diagram consists rectangles, whose area is proportional to frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.
  • It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data.

<em>From Figure:</em>  

        Each box in the graph (small rectangle box) is assumed to be one download. So, in the graph the time between 8 p.m to 9 p.m, the number of downloads are 8.75 approximately (because the last box is incomplete, therefore 8 complete boxes and 9th is more than half).

<em>So, We conclude that the total number of downloads are approximately 9 in the time span of 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.</em>

URGENTTT PLEASE HELPPPP. You put m1 = 1 kg of ice cooled to -20°C into mass m2 = 1 kg of water at 2°C. Both are in a thermally i
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Explanation:

heat lost by water will be used to increase the temperature of  ice

heat gained by ice

= mass x specific heat  x rise in temperature

1 x 2090 x t

heat lost by water in cooling to 0° C

= mcΔt  where m is mass of water , s is specific heat of water and Δt is fall in temperature .

= 1 x 2 x 4186  

8372

heat lost = heat gained

1 x 2090 x t  = 8372

t = 4°C

There will be a rise of  4 degree in the temperature of ice.

suppose you are walking home after school. The distance from school to your home is five kilometers. on foot you can get home in
agasfer [191]
If it takes ten minutes to travel 5 km, then it'll take 60 minutes to travel thirty, making your biking speed 30 kilometers per hour. 25 minutes divided by ten is 2.5. multiply 5 by 2.5 to get 12.5, your average walking speed.
