Newton’s Second Law establishes the relationship between mass, net applied force, and acceleration given by F=ma. Consider a 4 k

g box of holiday candy on a horizontal surface such as a table. There is a 10N applied force to the right and a 2N force to the left. The box accelerates with a magnitude of _________?

Answer:

a= 2 m/s^2

Explanation:

take to the right as positive

let Ftot be the total forces acting on the box , m be the mass of the box and a be the acceleration of the box.

Ftot = 10 - 2 = 8 N

and,

Ftot = ma

   a = Ftot/m

      = 8/4

      = 2 m/s^2

therefore, the acceleration of the box is of magnitude of 2 m/s^2.

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

16.5 kwh and 59400 kJ.

Explanation:

kWh is a measure of energy that is equivalent to the power in kw times the number of hours the device worked.

In this case, it would be equal to:

E_{kwh}=5.5kw*3h=16.5kwh

1 kw also means 1kj of energy spent per second. With this, we calculate the amount of energy in kJ spent by the resistance:

E_{kJ}=5.5\frac{kJ}{s}*3h*\frac{3600s}{1h} = 59400 kJ

just olya [345]

Explanation:

When you run, your body has a kinetic energy  and when you fall while running, the friction between the carpet and your foot, transforms the kinetic energy into thermal energy or heat energy. This can even cause, real burn if the skin were too hot.

Which solid state component allows a mobile phone to store data even if the battery is removed
Talja [164]

Answer:

Capacitor

Explanation:

Capacitor ; A capacitor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that can store energy in an electric field electrostatically. It works as a small rechargeable battery that stores electricity. However, unlike a battery, it can charge and discharge in the split of a second. Capacitors are widely used to build different types of electronic circuits.
