Answer:

3.43 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force is equal to mass times acceleration. (F=ma). You can use inverse operations to get the formula for acceleration, which is acceleration is equal to force divided by mass. (a=F/m). Since there are two forces here, the force friction (55 N), and the force applied (175 N), we must solve for the net force. To solve for the net force, you take the applied force (175 N) and subtract the frictional force from it (55 N). Thus, the net force is 120 N. With this done, we can now solve for our acceleration.

Using the equation for acceleration, we take the force and divide it by mass.

120/35

Answer: 3.43* m/s^2**

*Note: This is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the full answer is: 3.42857143

**Note: In case you're confused, this is meters per second squared.

The sensor in the torso of a crash test dummy records the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the dummy.If the du
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions

As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.

So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors

so we can say

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}

here given that

F_1 = 130.0 N

F_2 = 4500.0 N

now we will plug in all data in the above equation

F_{net} = \sqrt{4500^2 + 130^}

F_{net} = 4501.9 N

so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
pickupchik [31]

We don't know what kind of graph it is.

For example, it might be a graph of the pendulum's distance from center,

angle from center, speed, acceleration, total distance swung since it was

started, mass, weight, temperature, etc.


If the graph shows the pendulum's distance from center, angle from center,

speed, or acceleration, then the graph will look like a wave, with the period

of the wave being the period of the pendulum's oscillation. If the pendulum

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased,

and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.


If it was a graph of total distance the pendulum swung since it was started,

the graph wouldn't look like a wave, just a steadily rising wiggle line. If the

pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, the wiggles in the line

would be farther apart, and the average slope of any large section of the

line would be less.


If it was a graph of the pendulum's mass, weight, temperature, cost, etc.,

then the graph would be a horizontal line, and nothing that might change

the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph.

Why silicon have large forward current as compared to germanium?​
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The structure of Germanium crystals will be destroyed at higher temperature. However, Silicon crystals are not easily damaged by excess heat. Peak Inverse Voltage ratings of Silicon diodes are greater than Germanium diodes. Si is less expensive due to the greater abundance of element.
