when an object drops it accelerates at 9.8 mps so at 3 seconds the equation would be 9.8x3 which equals 29.4

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .  That means that a falling object
is always falling 9.8 m/s faster than it was falling 1 second earlier.

If an object is not slowed by air resistance, and has far enough to go
so that it's still falling after three whole seconds, then at the end of
three seconds it's falling at

           (9.8 m/s²) x (3 sec)  =  29.4 m/s

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below (in t
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x = 1474.9 [m]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

We must understand that when forces are applied on the body, they tend to slow the body down to stop it.

So as the body continues to move to the left, it is slowing down. Therefore we must calculate this deceleration value using Newton's second law. We must perform a sum of forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration. With leftward movement as negative and rightward forces as positive.

ΣF = m*a

10 +12*sin(60)= - 6*a\\a = - 3.39[m/s^{2}]

Now using the following equation of kinematics, we can calculate the distance of the block, before stopping completely. The initial speed must be 100 [m/s].

v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2}-2*a*x

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (the block stops)

Vo = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]

a = - 3.39 [m/s²]

x = displacement [m]

0 = 100^{2}-2*3.39*x\\x=\frac{10000}{2*3.39}\\x=1474.9[m]

Ethanethiol (; also called ethyl mercaptan) is commonly added to natural gas to provide the ""rotten egg"" smell of a gas leak.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

S = 27500J / 308.15molK

Explanation:

Entropy measures the degree of disorganization of a system. It is measured in the entropy change that is equal to the heat exchanged divided by the temperature at which the process occurs.

S2-S1 = Q / T

S = entropy

Q = heat = 27.5 kJ / mol * 1000J / 1KJ = 27500J / mol

T = temperature = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15K

units = J / molK

S = 27500J / 308.15molK

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.
Sidana [21]
This B: False, because the definition is lacking.  

Force is when two objects interact with one another causing it to either move or not move. In our daily lives there are a lot of times force is exerted upon us, rather force is everywhere and here are the evidences:  

*Pushing a cart
*Pushing a wall
*Hitting a baseball bat
*Apple falling down from a tree.
*Balls hitting one another
*A swinging pendulum
*Throwing a paper with stone above it
*Breaking of glass in the floor
*Falling of leaves on the grass <span> </span>
