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

julsineya [31]

Explanation:

Yes,  evidently, the process is consistent with the scientific process because in scientific process falsification and modification are two very important traits. So this new concept have modified the existing theories.

Through the modification a theory is adjusted without undermining other discovering made through the theory's prediction.

There are many other evidences that prove this fact for example Einstien's Theory of relativity also changes the existing concepts.

Lerok [7]
Answer:

Explanation:
Kinematics equation for first Object:

but:
The initial velocity is zero

it reach the water at in instant, t1, y(t)=0:


Kinematics equation for the second Object:
The initial velocity is zero

but:

it reach the water at in instant, t2, y(t)=0. If the second object is thrown 1s later, t2=t1-1=1.02s


The velocity is negative, because the object is thrown downwards
