F = mass * acceleration
F = 80kg * 2m/s^2
F = 160N

A 2kg object initially going 4m/s to the right is later going 8m/s. whats the change in velocity?
Nezavi [6.7K]

The change in velocity is +4 m/s to the right (or -4 m/s to the left).

The object's mass is irrelevant.

At a distance of 0.208 cm from the center of a charged conducting sphere with radius 0.100cm, the electric field is 485 n/c . wh
Anna35 [415]

We have the equation for electric field E = kQ/d^{2}

Where k is a constant, Q is the charge of source and d is the distance from center.

In this case E is inversely proportional to d^{2}

So, \frac{E_{1} }{E_{2}} = \frac{d_{2}^{2}}{d_{1}^{2}}

E_{1} = 485 N/C

d_{1} = 0.208 cm

d_{2} = 0.620 cm

E_{2} = ?

\frac{485 }{E_{2}} = \frac{0.620^{2}}{0.208^{2}}

E_{2} = \frac{485*0.208^{2}}{0.628^{2}}

E_{2} = 53.20 N/C

A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does
AysviL [449]

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

A rocket blasts off from the Earth's surface. During the initial phase of flight, the engine of the rocket burns fuel at a rate
Katen [24]

Answer:

αβ = Ma

Explanation:

By Newton's 2nd Law, the equation governing the motion of the rocket while the rocket is burning fuel is

αβ = Ma where  α = rocket's fuel burning rate, β = relative to the velocity of the rocket, M = instantaneous mass of the rocket and a = acceleration of rocket.
