In order to find the force (F), you would have to use the formula for it:
F=ma
where m is mass and a is acceleration.
In the problem, the mass is 2.85kg and the acceleration is 4.9m/s^2.
Therefore,
F=2.85kg(4.9m/s^2)
F=13.965kg(m/s^2)
Since N=kg(m/s^2)
F=13.965N
And because the problem requires that we use only 2 significant figures,
F=13N
Therefore, the student must exert 13N of force.

Which best describes a characteristic of an adiabatic process?
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

<h3>Can you please provide the choices? For now this is all I can give you.</h3>

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, an adiabatic process is a type of thermodynamic process which occurs without transferring heat or mass between the system and its surroundings.Unlike an isothermal process, an adiabatic process transfers energy to the surroundings only as work. It also conceptually supports the theory used to explain the first law of thermodynamics and is therefore a key thermodynamic concept.

Human beings are pulled off course as a result of the invisible forces of the <u>unconscious.</u>

According to Leverrier, he stated that an invisible planet was pulling the planet Uranus off its predicted course around the sun.

In such a way, human beings are pulled off course by the invisible forces of their unconscious minds. The unconscious minds of people control the thoughts of people.

The potential energy of a particle as a function of position will be given as U(x) = A x2 + B x + C, where U will be in joules w
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

F = - 2 A x - B

Explanation:

The force and potential energy are related by the expression

      F = - dU / dx i ^ -dU / dy j ^ - dU / dz k ^

Where i ^, j ^, k ^ are the unit vectors on the x and z axis

The potential they give us is

     U (x) = A x² + B x + C

Let's calculate the derivatives

    dU / dx = A 2x + B + 0

The other derivatives are zero because the potential does not depend on these variables.

Let's calculate the strength

      F = - 2 A x - B

Suppose a soccer player kicks the ball from a distance 29 m toward the goal. find the initial speed of the ball if it just passe
Rudik [331]

The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by v\sin39^\circ, where v here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving

\left(0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(v\sin39^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm m)

\implies v=11\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}
