A water skier has a mass of 79.0 kg and accelerates at 1.40 m/s2. What is the net force acting on him? F = ___ N
marysya [2.9K]
The answer is 111.

Using Newton's Second Law, F=ma, plugging known values in we get:

F = (79kg)(1.4m/s^2) = 110.6N ≈ 111N

Find the value of 15.0 N in pounds. Use the conversions 1slug=14.59kg and 1ft=0.3048m. Express your answer in pounds to three si
kotykmax [81]

Given the equivalent value to convert the units from kilograms to slug and feet to meters, we will proceed to define the equivalence of the 'Newton' in simplified units, that is,

1N=1kg\cdot m\cdot s^{-2}

Then,

15.0N=15.0kg\cdot m\cdot s^{-2}

Converting this value to British units we have that

15N = 15.0kg\cdot m\cdot s^{-2} (\frac{1slug}{14.59kg})(\frac{1ft}{0.3048m})

15N = 3.37 slug \cdot ft \cdot s^{-2} (\frac{1 lb \cdot ft^{-1}}{1slug})

15N =3.37lb

Therefore the value of 15.0 N in pounds is 3.37 lb.

**100 points** PLEASE ANSWER IN 3 PARAGRAPHS
Deffense [45]

Answer:

In the previous section, we defined circular motion. The simplest case of circular motion is uniform circular motion, where an object travels a circular path at a constant speed. Note that, unlike speed, the linear velocity of an object in circular motion is constantly changing because it is always changing direction. We know from kinematics that acceleration is a change in velocity, either in magnitude or in direction or both. Therefore, an object undergoing uniform circular motion is always accelerating, even though the magnitude of its velocity is constant.

You experience this acceleration yourself every time you ride in a car while it turns a corner. If you hold the steering wheel steady during the turn and move at a constant speed, you are executing uniform circular motion. What you notice is a feeling of sliding (or being flung, depending on the speed) away from the center of the turn. This isn’t an actual force that is acting on you—it only happens because your body wants to continue moving in a straight line (as per Newton’s first law) whereas the car is turning off this straight-line path. Inside the car it appears as if you are forced away from the center of the turn. This fictitious force is known as the centrifugal force. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this effect becomes.

Figure 6.7 shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous tangential velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity; in this case it points roughly toward the center of rotation. (The center of rotation is at the center of the circular path). If we imagine Δs becoming smaller and smaller, then the acceleration would point exactly toward the center of rotation, but this case is hard to draw. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion the centripetal acceleration ac because centripetal means center seeking.

hope it helps! stay safe and tell me if im wrong pls :D

(brainliest if you want, or if its right pls) :)
