Answer:

24 m/s

Explanation:

force = mass ×acceleration

acceleration = force / mass

acceleration = 4/0.50

acceleration = 8.0 m/s^2

acceleration = change in velocity /time

hence

change in velocity = acceleration × time

change in velocity = 8×3

change in velocity = 24 m/s

The binding of acetylcholine to its receptor at the neuromuscular junction causes the opening of a

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: opening of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels.

Explanation:

Neuromuscular junction is a special junction formed between a motor neurone and a muscle fibre. The junction is fortified with nerves and receptors that helps in the transmission of signals from the motor neurone to the muscle fibre in order to bring about the desired voluntary movements through muscular contraction.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor are activated through the binding of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This action leads to influx of sodium ions to accomplish endplate potential.

A 92kg astronaut and a 1200kg satellite are at rest relative to the space shuttle. The astronaut pushes on the satellite, giving

Harman [31]

Answer:

13.7m

Explanation:

Since there's no external force acting on the astronaut or the satellite, the momentum must be conserved before and after the push. Since both are at rest before, momentum is 0.

After the push

$m_av_a + m_sv_s = 0$

Where $m_a = 92kg$ is the mass of the astronaut, $m_s = 1200kg$ is the mass of the satellite, $v_s = 0.14 m/s$ is the speed of the satellite. We can calculate the speed $v_a$ of the astronaut:

$v_a = \frac{-m_sv_s}{m_a} = \frac{-1200*0.14}{92} = -1.83 m/s$

So the astronaut has a opposite direction with the satellite motion, which is further away from the shuttle. Since it takes 7.5 s for the astronaut to make contact with the shuttle, the distance would be

d = vt = 1.83 * 7.5 = 13.7 m

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 6 ft from the path and is kept fo

BARSIC [14]

We are given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 4ft/s$

We need to find $\frac{d\theta}{dt}$ when $x=8ft$

The equation that relates x and $\theta$ can be written as,

$\frac{x}{6} tan\theta$

$x = 6tan\theta$

Differentiating each side with respect to t, we get,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx}{d\theta} \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{dx}{dt} = (6sec^2\theta)\cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6sec^2\theta} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}$

Replacing the value of the velocity

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6} cos^2\theta (4)^2$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} cos^2\theta$

The value of $cos \theta$ could be found if we know the length of the beam. With this value the equation can be approximated to the relationship between the sides of the triangle that is being formed in order to obtain the numerical value. If this relation is known for the value of x = 6ft, the mathematical relation is obtained. I will add a numerical example (although the answer would end in the previous point) If the length of the beam was 10, then we would have to

$cos\theta = \frac{6}{10}$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} (\frac{6}{10})^2$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{24}{25}$

Search light is rotating at a rate of 0.96rad/s

A 400-kg object has a 100-Newton rightward net force being applied to it. What is the magnitude of the rightward acceleration on

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 0.25 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass = m = 400 kg

Force = F = 100 N

acceleration = a = ? m/s²

Process

To solve this problem use Newton's second law that states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass of the body times its acceleration.

Formula

F = ma

solve for a

a = $\frac{F}{m}$

Substitution

$a = \frac{100}{400}$

Simplification and result

a = 0.25 m/s²
