Superman throws a boulder of weight 3800 n at an adversary on the surface of the earth, where the magnitude of the acceleration

due to gravity, g = 9.80 m/s2 . what horizontal force must superman apply to the boulder to give it a horizontal acceleration of 12.8 m/s2 ?

The weight of the boulder is 3800 N, therefore its mass i s
3800/9.8 = 387.755 kg

If the horizontal acceleration is 12.8 m/s², then the horizontal force applied is
F = (387.755 kg)*(12.8 m/s²) = 4.963 x 10³ n = 4.963 kN

Answer: 4.963 kN

Answer:

Before sled starts to move it has a potential energy due to the elevation...and then that potential energy converted to kinetic energy due to presence of a velocity...the sled will continue to move if their is no resesive force...but however friction force is presence that cause the sled to stop....

A body accelerates uniformly from rest at 2m/s square. calculate it's velocity after traveling 9m.​
Talja [164]

Answer:

6m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Acceleration  = 2m/s²

Distance  = 9m

Unknown:

Final velocity = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

         v²  = u²  + 2as

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

        v²   = 0² + (2 x 2 x 9) = 36

        v  = 6m/s

A child whirls a 3.00 kg ball on a string .50 m from the axis of rotation in a horizontal circle. The ball makes 1 revolution in
melamori03 [73]

Answers:

a) 0.5 m/s^{2}

b) 1.5 N

Explanation:

a) The centripetal acceleration a_{c} of an object moving in a uniform circular motion is given by the following equation:  

a_{c}=\omega^{2} r  

Where:

\omega=1 \frac{rev}{s} is the angular velocity of the ball

r=0.5 m is the radius of the circular motion, which is equal to the length of the string

Then:

a_{c}=(1 \frac{rev}{s})^{2} 0.5 m  

a_{c}=0.5 m/s^{2} This is the centripetal acceleration of the ball

b) On the other hand, in this circular motion there is a force (centripetal force F) that is directed towards the center and is equal to the tension (T) in the string:

F=T=m. a_{c}

Where m=3 kg is the mass of the ball

Hence:

T=(3 kg)(0.5 m/s^{2})

T=1.5 N This is the tension in the string
