The kilogram is the SI unit of mass and it is the almost universally used standard mass unit. The associated SI unit of force and weight is the Newton, with 1 kilogram weighing 9.8 Newtons under standard conditions on the Earth's surface.

In which changes of state do atoms lose energy

Anika [276]

Yeah, it's every state. Atoms need a certain quanta of energy to jump to each state of energy, and therefore change state depending on how much energy is absorbed and/or released. This applies to all states of matter.

Why does your hand feel cool if you spill some alcohol on it?

son4ous [18]

<span>It takes heat to make something evaporate, so it takes heat from your arm. Alcohol easily evaporates at room temperature, so it feels cool. This is also why you feel cool when getting out of the pool. The water on your skin evaporates.

A 6.5 x 104 W engine exerts a constant force on of 5.5 x 103 N on a car, the resulting velocity is?

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

12m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power = 6.5 x 10⁴W

Force = 5.5 x 10³N

Unknown:

The resulting velocity = ?

Solution:

The velocity of a body is related to force and power using the expression below;

Power = Force x velocity

Insert the parameters and solve for velocity

6.5 x 10⁴ = 5.5 x 10³ x velocity

velocity = $\frac{6.5 x 10^{4} }{5.5 x 10^{3} }$ = 12m/s

Use Newton's second law of motion and a free-body diagram to...

timurjin [86]

Using the formula F = m*a. where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration you can use it for each. As long as there are no other forces towards the body in both cases :
F = m*a
F = 50*3
F = 150 N
