Answer:

Force = 20N

acceleration (a) = 1.5 m/s²

Mass of object (m) = ?

From Newtons II law

F = m. a N

m = F/a

m = 20/1.5

m = 13.34 Kg

Mass of an object is 13.34 Kg

Sharp claws in wild animals is an example of which type of adaptation?

Sati [7]

Answer:

Structural adaptation

Explanation:

When any physical body part of an organism helps it in surviving, then this mechanism of survival is called a structural adaptation. For example short tail of penguins helps them in balancing on their heels and tails due to which they are able to reduce heat released from their feet. Thus, any physical parts of an organism that helps them in coping with the surrounding physical environment /predators are refereed to as a mode of structural adaptation.

A speed skater moving across frictionless ice at 8.4 m/s hits a 5.7 m -wide patch of rough ice. She slows steadily, then continu

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=-2.48\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Initial speed of the skater, u = 8.4 m/s

Final speed of the skater, v = 6.5 m/s

It hits a 5.7 m wide patch of rough ice, s = 5.7 m

We need to find the acceleration on the rough ice. The third equation of motion gives the relationship between the speed and the distance covered. Mathematically, it is given by :

$v^2-u^2=2as$
