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

A pulley with a radius of 3.0 cm and a rotational inertia of 4.5 x 10–3 kg∙m2 is suspended from the ceiling. A rope passes over
vekshin1

Answer:

22J

Explanation:

Given :

radius 'r'= 3cm

rotational inertia 'I'=4.5 x 10^{-3} kgm²

mass on one side of rope 'm_{1'= 2kg

mass on other side of rope'm_{2' =4kg

velocity'v' of mass m_{2' = 2m/s

Angular velocity of the pulley is given by

‎ω = v /r => 2/ 3x 10^{-2

‎ω = 66.67 rad/s

For the rotating body, we have

KE = \frac{1}{2} I ω²

KE_p = \frac{1}{2} (4.5 *10^{-3} )(66.67^{2} )

KE_p = 10J

Next is to calculate kinetic energy of the blocks :

KE_{b} = \frac{1}{2} (m_1 + m_2).v^2\\KE_b= \frac{1}{2} (2+4).2^2

KE_b=12J

Therefore, the total kinetic energy will be

KE = KE_p + KE_b =10 + 12

KE= 22J

What is the relationship between the electric force and each one of the charges?
Bess [88]

Explanation: Electrostatic force is directly related to the charge of each object. So if the charge of one object is doubled, then the force will become two times greater.

Which of the following changes would make a heat engine waste more energy as heat
Komok [63]
A decrease in it's operating temperature would make a heat engine less efficient. This is because in order to operate, a heat engine needs to be hot and maintain that temperature.
