Answer:136.8N

Explanation:

Work=260joules

Distance=1.9m force=?

Force=work/distance

Force=260/1.9

Force=136.8N

Two metra trains approach each other on separate but parallel tracks. one has a speed of 90 km/hr, the other 80 km/hr. initially

Gennadij [26K]

The trains take <u>57.4 s</u> to pass each other.

Two trains A and B move towards each other. Let A move along the positive x axis and B along the negative x axis.

therefore,

$v_A=90 km/h\\ v_B=-80 km/h$

The relative velocity of the train A with respect to B is given by,

$v_A_B=v_A-v_B\\ =(90km/h)-(-80km/h)\\ =170km/h$

If the train B is assumed to be at rest, the train A would appear to move towards it with a speed of 170 km/h.

The trains are a distance d = 2.71 km apart.

Since speed is the distance traveled per unit time, the time taken by the trains to cross each other is given by,

$t= \frac{d}{v_A_B}$

Substitute 2.71 km for d and 170 km/h for $v_A_B$

$t= \frac{d}{v_A_B}\\ =\frac{2.71 km}{170 km/h} \\ =0.01594 h$

Express the time in seconds.

$t=(0.01594h)(3600s/h)=57.39s$

Thus, the trains cross each other in <u>57.4 s</u>.

A sinusoidal wave has period 0.20 s and wavelength 2.0 m. What is the wave speed?

il63 [147K]

Answer:10m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed ,v=for

Where π= wavelength=2m

Period =1/f f=frequency of wave

F=1/period

=1/0.2=5Hz

So speed of waves,v=5×2=10m/s

1. Define weight

andrezito [222]

1. Weight is the gravitational pull with which the earth attracts the body towards the center of the earth. The S.I unit is Newton (N)

2. The weight of an object is related to its mass with the below equation.

W = mg

Where W = weight, m = mass and g = acceleration due to gravity

3. The mass m = 50 kg and g = 9.8 m/ $s^{2}$

Substitute the parameters in the equation above.

W = 50 x 9.8

W = 490 N

4. An object is accelerating when it speeds up. If the object slows down, it means it is decelerating. The correct answer is option A

5. Newton's second law of motion is:

F = ma

Where F = force applied, m = mass and a = acceleration

Therefore, Newton's second law of motion relates an object's acceleration to its net force acting on it. The correct answer is option C

6. According to Newton's second law of motion which relates an object's acceleration to its mass, doubling the net force acting on an object a doubles its acceleration. Because mass is always constant.

7. Since the weight of an object is related to its mass with the equation.

W = mg, If the mass of an object doubles, its weight will also doubles. Option A is the correct answer.

8. If you know the mass of an object, you can calculate its weight with the formula F = mX when X = 9.8m/ $s^{2}$

9. Force is expressed in unit as Newton (N)

10. The parameters given are :

mass m = 20kg

Force F = 40N

To calculate acceleration, use the formula F = ma

Substitute all the parameters into the equation.

40 = 20a

a = 40/20

a = 2m/ $s^{2}$

The correct option is D
