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

A car with a mass of 710 kg is traveling at 37 km/hr. It accelerates to a speed of 120 km/hr in 12.6 seconds. What is the net fo
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: The net force acting on the car 1,299.3 N.

Explanation:

Mass of the car = 710 kg

Initial velocity of the car of the ,u= 37 km/h= 10.27 m/s (1km\h=\frac{5}{18} m/s)

Final velocity of the car,v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

time taken b y car = 12.6 sec

v-u=at

33.33m/s-10.27m/s=23.06 m/s=a(12.6 sec)

a = 1.83 m/s^2

Force=mass\times acceleration

Force=710 kg\times 1.83 m/s^2

Force=1,299.3 N

The net force acting on the car 1,299.3 N.

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.

7nadin3 [17]
Answer: 1.88

Explanation

Applying Snell’s Law, sin(1)/sin(2) = n(2)/n(1), where n is the index of refraction and sin 1 and 2 being of incidence and refracted respectively.

1) sin35/sin24 = n(2)/1.33
2) 1.41 = n(2)/1.33
3) n(2) = 1.41 x 1.33
4) n(2) = 1.88

Hope this helps :)
