Answer: 4.7m/s²

Explanation:

According to newton's first law,

Force = mass × acceleration

Since we are given more the one force, we will take the resultant of the two vectors.

Mass = 2.0kg

F1+F2 = (3i-8j)+(5i+3j)

Adding component wise, we have;

F1+F2 = 3i+5i-8j+3j

F1+F2 = 8i-5j

Resultant of the sum of the forces will be;

R² = (8i)²+(-5j)²

Since i.i = j.j = 1

R² = 8²+5²

R² = 64+25

R² = 89

R = √89

R = 9.4N

Our resultant force = 9.4N

Substituting in the formula

F = ma

9.4 = 2a

a = 9.4/2

a = 4.7m/s²

Therefore, magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 4.7m/s²

A car is driving east at 120. km/h from Toronto to Ottawa. The distance between the two cities is 425.5 km, how long will it tak
Ket [755]

Answer:

The time it will take for the driver to reach Ottawa is 3 hours 32 minutes and 45 seconds

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Speed of the car = 120 km/h

Distance from Toronto to Ottawa = 425.5 km

The formula for speed is given as follows;

Speed = Distance/Time

Therefore, to find the time duration it takes from Toronto to Ottawa, we have;

Time duration = Distance from Toronto to Ottawa/(Speed of the car)

The time duration = 425.5/120 = 3.54583 hours = 212.75 min = 12765 seconds

The time it takes from Toronto to Ottawa while driving at 425.5 km/h = 12765 seconds.

Calculate the average kinetic energy of molecules of a gas at a temperature of 18 ° C
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

6.0×10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

KE = 3/2 kT,

where KE is average kinetic energy per molecule,

k is the Boltzmann constant,

and T is absolute temperature.

KE = 3/2 (1.38×10⁻²³ J/K) (18 + 273.15) K

KE = 6.0×10⁻²¹ J
