Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

The mosquito will have a speed of 6 m/s.

if the speed of the mosquito and breeze was in opposite direction, we will subtracted them from each other and the result will be the speed of mosquito moving in the direction of the higher speed (between the breeze and mosquito). while if they are both moving in the same direction the speed of the mosquito will be the sum of both the speed of the mosquito and breeze thus the mosquito and breeze are moving in the same direction so we just sum it up (3m/s + 3m/s = 6m/s).

Answer:

10000N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1000kg

Acceleration = 3m/s²

g = 10m/s²

Unknown:

Weight of the car = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we must understand that weight is the vertical gravitational force that acts on a body.

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

So;

Weight = 1000 x 10 = 10000N

An astronaut drops a rock on the surface of an asteroid.The rock is released from rest at a height of 0.86 m above the ground, a

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

$a_y=0.92m/s^2$

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the formula for accelerated motion:

$y=y_0+v_{y0}t+\frac{a_yt^2}{2}$

We will take the initial position as our reference ( $y_0=0m$ ) and the downward direction as positive. Since the rock departs from rest we have:

$y=\frac{a_yt^2}{2}$

Which means our acceleration would be:

$a_y=\frac{2y}{t^2}$

Using our values:

$a_y=\frac{2(0.86m)}{(1.37s)^2}=0.92m/s^2$

Ruby is out with her friends. Misfortune occurs and

The work done is $2.35\cdot 10^5 J$

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have

F = 1080 N is the force applied on the car

d = 218 m is the displacement of the car

And assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the car, $\theta=0^{\circ}$ , and so the work done is

$W=(1080)(218)(cos 0^{\circ})=2.35\cdot 10^5 J$

if the user exerts a 14 n force on the upper handle, estimate the force on the clove. express your answer with the appropriate u

Marizza181 [45]

The force on the clove will have the same magnitude but a negative sign with it that is F = - 14 N

<h3>What is force and how do we calculate it ?</h3>

The definition of force is: The pushing or pulling on a massed object changes its velocity. Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's resting or moving condition.

It has a size and a movement.

Newton's second law of motion defines the force formula as follows:

A force is equal to an object's mass times its acceleration, or F = m a. You must use SI units when applying this formula: kilograms for mass, meters per second squared for acceleration, and newtons for force.
