Which term is defined as the force applied to the object divided by the mass of the object?

Physics
1 answer:
Leokris [45]3 years ago

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

A baseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. A catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. Find the magnit
Sidana [21]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

v_0 = Initial velocity

y_0 = initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

v = \frac{x}{t}

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

t = \frac{18.6}{34}

t = 0.547s

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2+0+0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

y = \frac{1}{2} 9.8*0.547^2

y = 1.46m

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

A 34-kg child on an 18-kg swing set swings back and forth through small angles. If the length of the very light supporting cable
kompoz [17]

Answer:

4.44s

Explanation:

A 34-kg child on an 18-kg swing set swings back and forth through small angles. If the length of the very light supporting cables for the swing is 4.9 m, how long does it take for each complete back-and-forth swing? Assume that the child and swing set are very small compared to the length of the cables

since the mass of the child and that of the swing is negligible, the masses wont be involved in the calculation

T=2π√L/g

g=acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81m/s2

the length of the supporting cable is 4.9m

T the period

period is the time required to make a complete oscillation

T=2*π√4.9/9.81

T=2*π*0.706

T=4.44s

4.44s
