<span>At bedtime last night, I had to make a serious and tough decision:
I could either sleep on the couch, under the pile of dogs who act
as if they own the place, or else I had to defy gravity and raise my
mass upward to the second floor of my house, where my bedroom
is located. I decided to sleep in my own bed, and I overcame the
force of gravity and lifted my entire mass up the stairs to the second
floor. I used my leg muscles to do the job.

An object has an acceleration of 6.0 m/s/s. If the net force was doubled and the mass was one-third the original value, then the

Hahahahaha. Okay.

So basically , force is equal to mass into acceleration.

F=ma

so when F=ma , we get acceleration=6m/s/s

Force is doubled.

Mass is 1/3 times original.

2F=1/3ma

Now , we rearrange , and we get 6F=ma

So , now for 6 times the original force , we get 6 times the initial acceleration.

So new acceleration = 6*6= 36m/s/s

When an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for

uysha [10]

Answer:

F=5449 N

Explanation:

Work done is a product of force and displacement ie

Work done, W, = Force*Displacement

Power, P, is Work done/Time

$P=\frac {W}{t}=\frac {FS}{t}$ where P is power, W is work done, F is force, S is displacement and t is time

In this case, F is the frictional force. Converting the power from hp to W, we multiply by 746 hence P=746*168=125328 W

Since displacement/time is velocity, then

P=FV where V is velocity in m/s

Making F the subject

$F=\frac {P}{V}$

$F=\frac {125328}{23}=5449.043478 N$

F=5449 N

A 4.0 m length of gold wire is connected to a 1.5 V battery, and a current of 4.0 mA flows through it. What is the diameter of t

sladkih [1.3K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of gold wire, l = 4 m

Voltage of battery, V = 1.5 V

Current, I = 4 mA

The resistivity of gold, $\rho=2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

Resistance in terms of resistivity is given by :

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Also, V = IR

So,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

A is area of wire,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi r^2}$ , r is radius, r = d/2 (diameter=d)

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi (d/2)^2}\\\\\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{4\rho l}{\pi d^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{V\pi}} \\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 4\times 4\times 10^{-3}}{1.5\times \pi}} \\\\d=18.2\ \mu m$
