Using Newton's second law;

F = ma, where m = mass, a = acceleration or deceleration

a = Δv/t = (v-u)/t, but v= 0, u = 10 m/s, t = 1.
Then,
a = (0-10)1 = -10 m/s^2

Substituting;
F = ma = 10*-10 = -100 N

The  mattress exerts 100 N to stop the ball.

A support crossbeam on a high speed train is made from a titanium rod that has a length of 0.650m when measured by an observer o
Vilka [71]

Answer:

A) The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the height appears contracted.

Explanation:

The observer on the train and the beam are in the same reference frame. That means observer on the train will measure the proper length of the beam not the contracted length . the observer is outside and the plank is in the moving system,it will appear to be moving.

two electrons are an angstrom (1x10^-10m) apart. What electrostatic force do they exert on one another?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁸ N if the two electrons are in a vacuum.

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the size of the electrostatic force F between two charged objects:

\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}},

where

  • k is coulomb's constant. k = 8.99\times 10^{8}\;\text{N}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\cdot\text{C}^{-2} in vacuum.
  • q_1 and q_2 are the signed charge of the objects.
  • r is the distance between the two objects.

For the two electrons:

  • q_1 = q_2 = 1.60\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C}.
  • r = 1\times 10^{-10}\;\text{m}.
  • \displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}} = -\frac{8.99\times 10^{8}\times (1.60\times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-10})^{2}} = 2.30\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}.

The sign of F is negative. In other words, the two electrons repel each other since the signs of their charges are the same.

What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?
Nataliya [291]

What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?

Answer:

1.59 kg

Explanation:

The formula is:

<u>F = G((Mm)/r2) </u>

F is the gravitational force between two objects,

G is the Gravitational Constant (6.674×10-11 Newtons x meters2 / kilograms2),

M is the planet's mass (kg),

m is your mass (kg), and

r is the distance (m) between the centers of the two masses (the planet's radius).

Hope this helps
