An unbalanced force of 500 N is applied to a 75 kg object. What is the acceleration of the object?

Physics

Answer:

Acceleration, a=6.66\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the object, F = 500 N

Mass of the object, m = 75 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the object. The force acting on the object is given by :

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{500\ N}{75\ kg}

a=6.66\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the object is 6.66\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

1. Define Newtons second law of motion (this will help put things into perspective)

2.Get the mass of the object (in this case 75 kg)

3.The net force acting on the object...find it (in this case 500 N)

4.Change the equation to F=ma (500=75a)

5.Divide both sides by 75 and that is the acceleration.

A circular wooden loop of mass m and radius R rest on a flat horizontal friction less surface. A bullet, also of mass m, and mov
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

w = vR/3

Explanation:

The centre of mass of the loop to bullet system is given by D / 4 from centre of loop, which is equivalent to R / 2 from its centre.

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum , we have

m*v = 2*m* Vcm

Where v = velocity of bullet, Vcm = velocity of wood

Hence, we have  

Vcm = v2

Also, from the conservation of angular momentum about the centre of mass.

M*V*(R/2) = Ic*w - equation (I)

where Ic = moment of inertia and w = angular velocity

Ic for a ring is given by mr^2 + m(r/2)^2

Ic of a bullet is given by m(r/2)^2

Hence, the moment of inertia of the system  is given by the summation of the two moments of inertia Ic(ring) + Ic(bullet) which gives

Ic(system) = 3*m*R^2/2

Substituting back into equation (I), we have

m*v*R^2=3*m*R^2*w/2

Hence, we obtain w =vR/3

w=v3R

Does the lattice energy of an ionic solid increase or decrease as the charges or sizes of the ions increase?
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Lattice energy is the energy required to separate one mole of an ionic solid compound into its components gaseous cations and anions.

Due to increase in size of the ions, the lattice energy decreases while the lattice energy increases as the charge of the ions increases.

When the size increase, the distance between the nuclei also increase leading a decrease the force of attraction between the nuclei

What net force would be necessary to cause a block of wood with a mass of 2.5 kg to accelerate at a rate of 3.0 m/s2
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

<h2>7.5 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 2.5 kg

acceleration = 3.0 m/s²

We have

force = 2.5 × 3.0 = 7.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.5 N</h3>

Light does not pass through some materials. What do you think happens
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon)

A photon is a quantum of EM radiation. Its energy is given by E = hf and is related to the frequency f and wavelength λ of the radiation by. E=hf=hcλ(energy of a photon) E = h f = h c λ (energy of a photon) , where E is the energy of a single photon and c is the speed of light.

Help meee please fill in the blanks !!
Ratling [72]

The atomic number is the simply the number of protons in the atom. So in the first row with atomic number 2, the number of protons is 2.

If the atom has no charge, which I think you can assume for all of these, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So the number of electrons is also 2.

The number of neutrons (which are the particles with no charge in the nucleus) is simply the mass number minus the atomic number i.e. 4 - 2 = 2.

The isotopic symbol is the symbol which is found on the periodic table of elements. There are 2 numbers associated which each element on the table. The larger is the mass number and the smaller is the atomic number. The atomic number or number of protons is what identifies the element. Looking at the periodic table ( https://sciencenotes.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/PeriodicTableOfTheElementsBW.pdf or https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(big) ), it can be seen that the element on the first row above with an atomic number of 2 is Helium with a symbol He. The number that is included with the name is simply the mass number which is 4 in this case, which tells us that this type of helium has 2 neutrons.

Another type (or isotope) of helium is Helium-3 which has one neutron.

Try the next row and post back if you have trouble with it
