Answer:

acceleration

Explanation:

From the question: "FORCE... divided by the MASS..." is translated to a math equation as "F / m", where "F" is the force and "m" is the mass.

Now, the second Newton's law says "F = m . a ", where a is acceleration.

If you move m to the left side, clearly you have "F / m", and "a" is alone to the right. Math equation:

a = F / m

acceleration = force / mass

An athlete performing a long jump leaves the ground at a 32.9 ∘ angle and lands 7.78 m away.part a )what was the takeoff speed ?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Inclination $\theta =32.9^{\circ}$

Distance of landing point $R=7.78\ m$

Considering athlete to be an Projectile

range of projectile is given by

$R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}$

where u=launch velocity

$7.78=\frac{u^2\sin (2\times 32.9)}{9.8}$

$u^2=83.58$

$u=\sqrt{83.58}$

$u=9.142\ m/s$

(b)If u is increased by 8% then

new velocity is $u'=9.87\ m/s$

$R'=\frac{u'^2\sin 2\theta }{g}$

$R'=9.07\ m$

A ships initial position is 25 km east of the origin. What is the ship’s final position if it sails at a constant velocity of 42

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

88km E

Explanation:

25 km is added already

then if we take the formula of speed(V)

V=d/t

and rearrange it to subject d (distance)

d= V x t

we get

d= 42km/h x 1.5hrs

we get

63 km

now if we add the already travelled 25 km to this additional distance

63km + 25km = 88km

Thus the final distance traversed by the ship from its origin is

88km E

Landslides are primarily caused by -

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational pull

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is an attractive force exerted between all objects having mass. Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between electrically charged object. It can be either attractive ore repulsive. Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force responsible for holding protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of the atoms. It is attractive and acts only on a very short scale.

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for certain nuclear decay processes (radioactivity).

In this problem, landslides occur when certain masses of terrain are attracted towards the ground - they are attracted because of the gravitational force.

So, the correct answer is

gravitational pull
