A net force of magnitude 36 N gives an object of mass m1 an acceleration of 6.0 m/s^2. The same net force gives m1 and another o

bject of mass m2 fastened together an acceleration of 2.0 m/s^2. What acceleration will m2 experience if the same net force acts on it alone?

This is a beautiful problem to test whether a student actually understands
Newton's 2nd law of motion . . . Force = (mass) x (acceleration). 

That simple law is all you need to solve this problem, but you need to
use it a few times.

m₁ alone:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = ( m₁ ) x  (6 m/s²)

                         m₁ = (36 N) / (6 m/s²)   

                         m₁  =  6 kilograms .

m₁ and m₂ glued together:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = (6 kg + m₂) x (2 m/s²)

                     6 kg + m₂  =  (36 N) / (2 m/s²)  =  18 kilograms

                               m₂  =  12 kilograms .

m₂ alone:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = (12 kg) x (acceleration)

                     Acceleration = (36 N) / (12 kg)

                     Acceleration  =   3 m/s²

(a) A small object with mass 3.75 kg moves counterclockwise with constant speed 1.55 rad/s in a circle of radius 2.55 m centered
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:3.95 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of object m=3.75 kg

\omega =1.55 rad/s

radius of circle =2.55 m

initial Position r=2.55 \hat{i}

angular displacement \theta _0=8.95 rad

8.95 radian can be written as

1.42 (2\pi )

i.e. Particle is at first quadrant with \theta =0.4242\pi \times \frac{180}{\pi }

\theta =76.36^{\circ}

(c)velocity is v=\omgea \times r

v=1.55\times 2.55=3.95 m/s

I’m NC the wind is blowing from the north. If the wind changes direction and begins to blow from the south, what will most likel
MrMuchimi

NC means North Carolina.

Answer:

The temperatures will increase.

Explanation:

What will happen is that the temperature will increase. This is because, in wind direction and weather forecasting, a wind that shifts from the south means that warmer air/temperatures are approaching whereas a wind shift from the north implies that cooler air/temperatures are approaching.

Unpolarized light passes through three polarizing filters. The first one is oriented with a horizontal transmission axis, the se
Xelga [282]

Answer:

10.028%

Explanation:

\theta = Angle between polarizer

The polarized light after passing through first polarizer

I=\frac{I_0}{2}

The polarized light after passing through second polarizer

I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^231.8\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.36115I_0

The polarized light after passing through third polarizer

I_3=I_2cos^2(90-31.8)\\\Rightarrow I_3=0.36115I_0cos^2(90-31.8)\\\Rightarrow I_3=0.10028I_0

\frac{I_3}{I_0}\times 100=\frac{0.10028I_0}{I_0}\times 100\\ =10.028\ \%

The percent of the light gets through this combination of filters is 10.028%

Suppose that the process were repeated, except that in step 3 a neutral acrylic rod instead of a finger is used to touch the ele
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

b) True Only if the finger is isolated from ground

c) True. The total charge does not change since the system is isolated

Explanation:

When the electroscope is touched with an acrylic rod, some charges are transferred from the electroscope to the rod, until the charge in both is equal.

In the case it know when the electroscope is touched with a finger, two things can happen.

- The body is isolated from the ground, the efective charge is redistributed between the two bodies. Case similar to insulating rod

- The body is connected to ground, the charge is transferred to the finger and from here to the ground until the total charge is transferred and the Earth and the final charge of the electroscope is zero.

Let's review the final statements

a) False, when part of the load is touched, it passes to the rod, so when it separates it does not return to the initial load

b) True Only if the finger is isolated from ground

c) True. The total load does not change since the system is isolated

d) False. The value of the load changes =, but its sign does not
