A=5m/s
F=15N
by the formula, F = m × a
15N = m × 5m/s
m = \frac{15}{5} 
             
By simplification(division), 
m = 3
Thus, mass of the Encyclopedia will be 3kgs.

All the Best. :D

What will happen to the period of a ball-on-a-spring if the ball is replaced by a smaller one with half the mass
Murrr4er [49]

When the ball on a spring is replaced by a smaller ball with half the mass :  The period decrease by 29%

<h3>Calculate the Period </h3>

We will apply the formula below to calculate period

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k } }

 where :

T₁ / T₂ = \sqrt{\frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} } }    where m₂ = m₁ / 2

Therefore :

T₂ = \frac{T_{1} }{\sqrt{2} }   = 0.71 T

Hence we can conclude that the period will decrease by 29% ( i.e 100 - 71 ).

A sports car has an average acceleration of 5.81 m/s2. How long does it take for the car to reach 60.0 mi/h, if it starts from r
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

  4.617 s

Explanation:

The speed of 60 mi/h can be converted to m/s:

  (60 mi/h) × (1609.344 m/mi) × (1 h)/(3600 s) = 26.8244 m/s

The relationship between speed and acceleration is ...

  v = at

  t = v/a = (26.8244 m/s)/(5.81 m/s²) ≈ 4.617 s

It will take the car 4.617 seconds to reach 60 mi/h starting from rest.
