A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an

Physics
1 answer:
Ymorist [56]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F=  20N   and  a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

Which is a characteristic that makes electromagnetic waves and water waves different
Paraphin [41]
We know that a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space There are two main types of waves: Mechanical and Electromagnetic. Water waves are mechanical. A mechanical wave is an oscillation of matter to transfers energy, but you always need a medium (substance such as: solid, liquid, gas, plasma) to transport it. The medium for water waves is, in fact, the water. For example, ripple in water is a surface wave. On the other hand, electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to transport, they can do it through the empty space. Then, this is the major characteristic that makes these two types of waves different.

How does the gravity which pulls the moon and earth toward each other also affect the ocean?
slamgirl [31]
Gravity is what holds the planets in orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.

A kangaroo jumps straight up to a vertical height of 1.45 m. How long was it in the air before returning to Earth?
dexar [7]

Answer:

1.08 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) reached = 1.45 m

Time of flight (T) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the kangaroo to return from the height of 1.45 m. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 1.45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1.45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1.45 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1.45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1.45/4.9)

t = 0.54 s

Note: the time taken to fall from the height(1.45m) is the same as the time taken for the kangaroo to get to the height(1.45 m).

Finally, we shall determine the total time spent by the kangaroo before returning to the earth. This can be obtained as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the height = 0.54 s

Time of flight (T) =?

T = 2t

T = 2 × 0.54

T = 1.08 s

Therefore, it will take the kangaroo 1.08 s to return to the earth.

Suppose a rock is dropped off a cliff with an initial speed of 0m/s. What is the rocks speed after 5 secounds, in m/s, if it enc
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.

Explanation:

A rock is dropped off a cliff.

It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Speed after 5 seconds = V

We know that acceleration = average speed/time

In our case,

g = ((0+V)/2)/5

9.8*5 = V/2

=> V = 2*9.8*5

V = 98 m/s
