According to Newton`s  law. Force exerted by car,

F = m a = 1100 kg \times 2 m/s^2 = 2200 \ N

After adding an additional 400 kg of mass, the force will be same therefore the acceleration

F = 2200 \ N = (1100 \ kg + 400 \ kg)  a \\\\ a = \frac{2200 \ N}{1500 \ kg} = 1.47 \ m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration after adding the masses is 1.47 \ m/s^2.

Gas and oil from the dead creatures, the gas, and oil are trapped under layers of rock
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Gas is on top of oil

Explanation:

Gas is less dense ( smaller density ) than oil which is more dense. Since density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume, gas will occupy a larger space than oil.

The larger space occupied is the space above the mixture of oil and gas, hence gas is above oil

How do you determine true displacement value of an object that has moved?
WITCHER [35]
Diceplacement is the distance an object has traveled in a certain direction
for example, if you were to walk North for 20m, then east for 40m, the <u>distance</u> you have traveled is 60m however your displacement is the distance between your starting position and your end position;
sqrt(20^2+40^2) = 44.7m
and because displacement is a vector, there needs to be a direction;
sin(theta)=40/44.7
theta=63.4 degrees East of North

therefore the true displacement is 44.7m at 63.4 degrees East of North

A plastic box has an initial volume of 2.00 m 3 . It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Volume strain is 0.02

Explanation:

Volume strain is defined as the change in volume to the original volume.

It is given that,

Initial volume of the plastic box is 2 m³

It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to 1.96 m³

We need to find the volume strain on the box. It is defined as the change in volume divided by the original volume. So,

\delta V=\dfrac{V_f-V_i}{V_i}\\\\\delta V=\dfrac{1.96-2}{2}\\\\\delta V=0.02

So, the volume strain on the box is 0.02.

If 2.0 x 10^-4 C charge passes a point in 5.0 x 10^-5 s, what is the rate of current flow?
insens350 [35]
Current is defined as the rate of charge flowing a point every second. Having a current of 1 Ampere signifies 1 Coulomb is flowing in a circuit every second. It is measured by the use of an ammeter which is positioned in series to the component to be measured. The current in the problem is calculated as follows:

I = 2.0 x 10^-4 C / 5.0 x 10^-5 s
<span>I = 4 A or 4.0 x 10^0 A</span>
