Answer: 2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}


According to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion (in the specific case when the mass m <u>is constant</u>) the acceleration a that a body acquires is directly proportional to the exerted force F on the body.

As shown in the following equation:


F=ma    (1)


We already know the value of the mass of the car and the force excerted on it. So, we need to find the value of the acceleration from equation (1):


a=\frac{F}{m}     (2)


And substitute the known values:


a=\frac{3000N}{1200kg}    


At this point, note that 1N=1kg\frac{m}{s^{2}}


Taking this into account, the acceleration of the car is:


a=2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Oceans being joined together helps me understand the impact of a river being dried up because rivers lead to the ocean, once a river is dried up not only does that cut off a stream to the ocean it also affects animals. There’s many animals who live by water or live in water, and without it they wouldn’t be able to thrive. For example, some animals might stay near water to catch fish to eat and survive. Without the water, there are no fish.. but without the fish, that animal that was reliant on the fish wouldn’t be able to survive. A river drying up could also affect humans who live by water, and who use the stream as a water source. It could affect fisherman’s businesses and even food source if there’s no water. Oceans being conjoined together also help me understand the impact because if the Pacific Ocean just randomly dried up, it would affect the rest. The same as a river, if too many dry up it could eventually effect the ocean itself.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Latitude lines, which run horizontally around the Earth, allow mariners and pilots to know how far north or south they are from the equator, while longitude lines, which run vertically between the two poles, tell travelers how far east or west they are from the prime meridian.

7. According to the theory of isostasy, which statement must be true?
baherus [9]

Answer:

A. The astenosphere is denser than the lithosphere

Explanation:

The theory of isostasy is a theory that suggest that the layers of Earth are arranged in accordance to their density. It is a theory that usually refers to the mantle and crust. The mantle (astenosphere) is denser than the crust (lithosphere), so the crust floats on top of it, depending on its density, with he continental crust being higher, while the oceanic crust being lower. The two forces that are responsible for this are the gravity and buoyancy.
