What is the force of an object with a mass of 30 kg that is free falling?

Physics
1 answer:
disa [49]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

F = 294.3 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. It is this particular case the acceleration is due to the gravitational acceleration since the body is in free fall.

Therefore we have:

F = m*g

where:

F  = force [N]

m = mass = 30 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]

F = 30*9.81

F = 294.3 [N]

A steel bridge is 1000 m long at -20°C in winter. What is the change in length when the temperature rises to 40°C in summer? The
xenn [34]

Answer:

ΔL = 0.66 m

Explanation:

The change in length on an object due to rise in temperature is given by the following equation of linear thermal expansion:

ΔL = αLΔT

where,

ΔL = Change in Length of the bridge = ?

α = Coefficient of linear thermal expansion = 11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

L = Original Length of the Bridge = 1000 m

ΔT = Change in Temperature =  Final Temperature - Initial Temperature

ΔT = 40°C - (-20°C) = 60°C

Therefore,

ΔL = (11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(1000 m)(60°C)

<u>ΔL = 0.66 m</u>

The current through a 10 ohm resistor is 1.2 amperes.What is the potential difference across the resistor?
Natalija [7]

<u>Answer</u>: The potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the potential difference cross the resistor, we use Ohm's Law. This law states that the potential difference across two wires is directly proportional to the current flowing through that wire.

Mathematically,

V\propto I\\V=IR

Where,

V = potential difference = ?V

I = Current flowing = 1.2 A

R = Resistor = 10\Omega

Putting values in above equation, we get:

V=1.2\times 10=12V

Hence, the potential difference across the resistor is 12 volts

the car starts from a stop to travel 1100 meters in 14 seconds. it is clocked at 65 m/s at point k. find its average speed and a
inysia [295]

Answer:

The average velocity of the car is, V = 74.04 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial velocity of the car, u = 0 m/s

The displacement of the ca, S = 1100 m

The time period of travel, t = 14 s

The velocity of the car at point k, v = 65 m/s

Using the II equation of motion,

                      S = ut + ½  at²

Substituting the given values,

                      1100 = 0 + ½ x a x 14²

                          a = 11.22 m/s²

Using the III equation of motion

                         v² = u² + 2 as

                          v = √(2as)              (∵ u = 0)

Substituting,

                           v = √(2 x 11.22 x 1100)

                              = 157.11 m/s

The average speed of the car,

                        V=\frac{0+65+157.11}{3}

                        V = 74.04 m/s

Hence, the average velocity of the car is, V = 74.04 m/s

Will the velocity of the book change as it moves across the surface with NO friction? Explain your answer.
MakcuM [25]

No velocity will not be changed

Why?

According to Newtons 1st law the velocity of a moving object remains unchanged unless a external force affect that.
