A 6kg sled sliding on an icy surface experiences a 6-N frictional force exerted by the ice and the air resistive force of 0.6 N.

What is the Net force on the sled?
Physics

The net force on the sled is 6.6 N pointing backwards, opposite to the direction it's sliding. That's why it's slowing down, and will eventually stop.

1. Calculate the total heat content of 10 kg of ice at -23°C.?
vesna_86 [32]

To solve the problem, we must know the heat capacity of ice and water.

For Cp = 2090 J/kg C

H = mCpT

H = (10 kg) ( 2090 J/ Kg C) ( -23 C)

H = - 480700 J

For water Cp = 4180 j/kg C

H = (100 kg) ( 4180 J/kg C) ( 60 C)

<span>H = 2508000 J</span>

Raul wants to study how pot size affects the growth of plants. To do this, he intends to purchase three different pots of varyin
hram777 [196]

Answer: The answer position may vary. But the correct answer is D. No; Raul changes more than one variable so the results will be invalid.

Explanation:

Raul's experimental set-up will not produce valid results because he intends to change more than one variable.

One variable that Raul will change is the pot size. According to the description, however, Raul will also change one other variable—the type of flower that is planted. Even though Raul plans on using flowers only, he should use the same type of flower in each pot, not different types.

Valid results are only produced when only one variable is changed at a time.

World-class sprinters can accelerate out of the starting blocks with an acceleration that is nearly horizontal and has magnitude
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

A. The force exerted by the sprinter must be  9.6 × 10² N.

B. The force that propels the sprinter is exerted by the blocks.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Let´s begin with part B:

The sprinter exerts a force on the blocks and, as a reaction, the blocks exert a force on the sprinter that is of equal magnitude but opposite direction (Newton´s third law). This reaction of the blocks causes the acceleration of the sprinter.

Part A

The force exerted by the blocks can be calculated using Newton´s second law:

F = m · a

Where:

F = exerted force.

m = mass of the object being accelerated.

a = acceleration of the object after applying the force on the object.

F = m · a

F = 64 kg · 15 m/s²

F = 9.6 × 10² N

A train moves moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 sec . what is its acceleration
spayn [35]
A = Delta v/Delta t
Delta v = 25 - 0 = 25
Delta t = 30
25/30 = 5/6 = 1.66 repeating
