What two factors affect the rate of acceleration of an object?

1 answer:

5 0

For help with this answer, we look to Newton's second law of motion:

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Since the question seems to focus on acceleration, let's get
'acceleration' all alone on one side of the equation, so we can
really see what's going on.

Here's the equation again:

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by 'mass',
and we have: Acceleration = (force) / (mass) .

Now the answer jumps out at us: The rate of acceleration of an object
is determined by the object's mass and by the strength of the net force
acting on the object.

A diver rises quickly to the surface from a 5.0 m depth. If she did not exhale the gas from her lunds before rising, by what fac

Inessa [10]

Answer:

1.5 times

Explanation:

$h$ = depth of the diver initially = 5 m

$\rho$ = density of seawater = 1030 kg m⁻³

$P_{i}$ = Initial pressure at the depth

$P_{f}$ = final pressure after rising = 101325 Pa

Initial pressure at the depth is given as

$P_{i} = P_{f} + \rho gh\\P_{i} = 101325 + (1030) (9.8) (5)\\P_{i} = 151795 Pa$

$V_{i}$ = Initial volume at the depth

$V_{f}$ = Final volume after rising

Since the temperature remains constant, we have

$P_{f} V_{f} = P_{i} V_{i}\\(101325) V_{f} = (151795) V_{i}\\V_{f} = 1.5 V_{i}$

A wheel moves in the xy plane in such a way that the location of its center is given by the equations xo = 12t3 and yo = R = 2,

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s is $P = 104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}$

Explanation:

The free-body diagram below shows the interpretation of the question; from the diagram , the wheel that is rolling in a clockwise directio will have two velocities at point P;

the peripheral velocity that is directed downward $(-V_y)$ along the y-axis

the linear velocity $(V_x)$ that is directed along the x-axis

Now;

$V_x = \frac{d}{dt}(12t^3+2) = 36 t^2$

$V_x = 36(1.7)^2\\\\V_x = 104.04\ ft/s$

Also,

$-V_y = R* \omega$

where $\omega$ (angular velocity) = $\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(8t^4)$

$-V_y = 2*32t^3)\\\\\\-V_y = 2*32(1.7^3)\\\\-V_y = 314.432 \ ft/s$

∴ the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s is $P = 104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}$

On the graph of voltage versus current, which line represents a 2.0 Ω resistor?

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to ohm's law V = IR where;

V i sthe supply voltage (in volts)

I = supply current (in amperes)

R = resistance (in ohms)

In order to calculate the line that is equal to 2ohms, we need to calculate the slope of each line using the formula.

For line B, R = ΔV/ΔI

R = V₂-V₁/I₂-I₁

R = 14.0-4.0/7.0-2.0

R = 10.0/5.0

R = 2.0ohms

Since the slope of line B is equal to 2 ohms, this shows that the line B is the one that represents the 2ohms resistor.

Write down the (real) electric and magnetic fields for a monochromatic plane wave of amplitude E0 , frequency w, and phase angle

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) the oscillation of this field is in phase, when the magnetic field goes in the negative direction of y, the elective field goes in the positive direction of the z axis

b) the direction of the magnetic field perpendicular to this electric field and the speed in the negative x the magnetic field goes in the x direction and in the direction (1, - 1.1)

Explanation:

a) the polarization the determined wave oscillates the electric field, which is the z axis

As the wave travels on the negative x-axis and the magnetic field is perpendicular, this field goes on the positive y-axis

the oscillation of this field is in phase, when the magnetic field goes in the negative direction of y, the elective field goes in the positive direction of the z axis

be) in the case of a polarization in the xi plane the magnetic field must go in the direction of the magnetic field perpendicular to this electric field and the speed in the negative x the magnetic field goes in the x direction and in the direction (1, - 1.1)

which of the following statements best explains how consumers determine growth in technological areas

Mrac [35]

If these were the missing choices:

a) Consumers fill out questionnaires concerning their need for new products.

b) Consumers vote for politicians who decide which kind of research to support

c) Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy

d) Consumers influence the decisions of private foundations by deciding where to donate money.

My answer would be: c) <span>Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy</span>

Every growth is based on the demand of the people. If a good or service is needed then its demand will increase. If a good or service is not needed then its demand will decrease until such time that said good or service will be eliminated.
