Which three quantities can be used to calculate acceleration?

1 answer:

4 0

D is the correct answer, assuming that this is the special case of classical kinematics at constant acceleration. You can use the equation V = Vo + at, where Vo is the initial velocity, V is the final velocity, and t is the time elapsed. In D, all three of these values are given, so you simply solve for a, the acceleration.
A and C are clearly incorrect, as mass and force (in terms of projectile motion) have no effect on an object's motion. B is incorrect because it is not useful to know the position or distance traveled, unless it will help you find displacement. Even then, you would not have enough information to use a kinematics equation to find a.

When an oxygen atom forms an ion, it gains two electrons

kirill [66]

Note the atom of the Oxygen is electrically neutral, meaning it has equal numbers of electrons and protons.

So if it gains 2 electrons, it would have excess of 2 electrons, hence its charge would be -2.

Option B.

A cylinder 0.170 m in diameter rotates in a lathe at 530 rpm . what is the tangential speed of the surface of the cylinder?

Ad libitum [116K]

Diameter = 0.170 meter
Circumference = 0.170 π meters

530 rpm = 530 circumferences / minute

   = (530 x 0.170 π meters) / minute

   =    283.06 meter.minute

   =    4.72 meters/second

The maximum force that a grocery bag can withstand without ripping is 250 n. Suppose that the bag is filled with 20 kg of grocer

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Groceries stay in the bag.

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum force = 250 N

Bag filled with = 20 kg

Lifted acceleration = $5.0\ m/s^2$

Solution:

We need to calculate the exerted force on the grocery bag by using Newton's second law.

$F = ma$

Where:

F = Exerted force on the object.

m = Mass of the object in kg

a = Acceleration of the object in $m/s^2$

Now, we substitute m = 20 kg and a = $5.0\ m/s^2$ in Newton's second law,

$F = 20\times 5.0$

$F = 100\ m/s^2$

Since, the exerted force on the bag is less than 250 N, the groceries will stay in the bag.

The aorta is the main artery from the heart. a typical aorta has an inside diameter of 1.8 cm and carries blood at speeds of up

defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume per unit time flowing will be conserved

a₁v₁ = a₂ v₂

π r₁² x v₁ = π r₂² x v₂

(0.9 x 10⁻²)² x .35 = ( .45 x 10⁻² )² x v₂

v₂ = 1.4 m / s

How do you know that forces are balanced when static friction acts on an object?

lyudmila [28]

By looking at the acceleration of the object.
In fact, Netwon's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass m of the object and its acceleration:
$\sum F = ma$

So, when static friction is acting on the object, if the object is still not moving we know that all the forces are balanced: in fact, since the object is stationary, its acceleration is zero, and so the resultant of the forces (left term in the formula) must be zero as well (i.e. the forces are balanced).
