Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that when a certain force is acted on an object then it is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration a of the object.

Mathematically, the relation is as follows.

F = m × a

Thus, we can conclude that when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force then the object will start to accelerate.

Please help me quickly!!!

Hey! So referring to the data the thing we can clearly see is that in a vacuum, everything, regardless of its mass, falls at the same speed.

Acceleration is often confused with speed, or velocity, but the difference is, acceleration by definition is the rate of which an object falls with respect to its mass and time.

Every single thing in the world falls at the same acceleration, this is because of gravity. The difference is the speed of which it falls. In space, there is not any gravity, and so, the objects are able to fall at the same speed regardless of their mass.

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub

aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse ( $F \times t$ ). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Here, u is initial velocity which is zero.

$s= \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }$ .

Thus, impulse

$= F \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }$

From Newton`s second law,

$F =mg$

Therefore, impulse

$= mg \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} } = m \sqrt{2gs}$

Given, $m = 7.3 kg$ and $s = 2.0 m$

Substituting these values, we get

Change in momentum = impulse

$= 7.3 \ kg \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.0 \ m } = 45 .7 \ Ns$ .

(1 point) A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 hour and 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the

kati45 [8]

Answer:

The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position

Explanation:

Since the pilot is traveling at a constant speed of 635 mph, the total distance traveled can be easily found as follows:

$1stleg: d_{1} = 1.5*635 = 952.5 mi\\2ndleg: d_{2} = 2*635 = 1270 mi$

There was a 10 degrees deviation, so the angle between the trajectory of both legs is 170 degrees.

The distance we need to find is that from the start of the first leg to the end of the second leg, those three distances form a triangle and since the side we're interested in is opposite to the 170 degrees angle, we can determine its length by the law of cosines:

$d_{3}^{2} =d_{1}^{2} + d_{2}^{2} -2*d_{1}*d_{2}*cos(170)\\d_{3}^{2} =952.5^{2} + 1270^{2} -2*952.5*1270*cos(170)\\d_{3}=2214.22mi$

The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position

Calculate delta g for the reaction if the partial pressures of the initial mixture are pcl5 = .0029 atm, pcl3 = .27 atm, and pcl

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: equation for the reaction is given below

PCL2+PCL3=PCL5

Where pcl2=0.40atm,pcl3=0.27atm

Pcl5=0.0029atm

Using ∆G=-RTin(PCL5/PCl2*PCL3)

Where R=8.314J/K/mol and T=298K

∆G=-8.314*298in(0.0029/0.40*.27)

∆G=8962.6J/mol
