Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F = ma

Given that m = 4 kg and a = 8 m/s²:

F = (4 kg) (8 m/s²)

F = 32 N

If m is reduced to 1 kg and F stays at 32 N:

32 N = (1 kg) a

a = 32 m/s²

So the acceleration increases by a factor of 4.

Answer:

When the polythene rod is rubbed with the woolen cloth, static electric charges move from the cloth and into the rod. The rod becomes negatively charged as negative charges move from the cloth and into the rod leaving the cloth positively charged as well.

An 11.0 -W energy-efficient fluorescent lightbulb is designed to produce the same illumination as a conventional 40.0-W incandes
yarga [219]

The amount or cost that the user of the energy-efficient bulb save during 100h of use will be $0.319.

<h3>How to calculate the cost?</h3>

For the 11.0W bulb, it should be noted that the value will be:

= 11.0 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.121

The 40W bulb will be:

= 40 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.44

Therefore, the amount that will be saved will be:

= $0.44 - $0.121

= $0.319
