What is the acceleration of a 1500 kg truck with a net force of 7500 N

Acceleration is 5ms⁻²

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Given -

Mass = 1500kg

Force = 7500N

Acceleration = ?

We know,

Force = mass X acceleration

7500N = 1500kg X a

a = 7500/ 1500 ms⁻²

a = 5ms⁻²

Therefore, acceleration is 5ms⁻²

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is 5 m/s^{2}.

Explanation:

From the Newton's second law we can add an equation as:

                                            F= ma.........................................1

        where, f= force

                    m= mass of object

                    a= acceleration of object

We are given net force as 7500 N, mass as 1500 kg so insert the value in equation 1, we get

                                    7500 N = 1500 × a

                              or, a= \frac{7500}{1500}

                              or, a=  5 m/s^{2}

Hence the acceleration of the truck is 5 meter per second square.

Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

 K_a = 8,111 J

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before dropping the particles

          p₀ = 0

final moment

          p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

          p₀ = p_f

          0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

tells us that

          m_a = 8 m_b

         

           0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b

           v_b = - 8 v_a                    (1)

indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved

starting point

           Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J

final point. After separating the body

          Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²

           K₀ = K_f

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)

           

we substitute equation 1

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)

           73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)

           73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a

            K_a = 8,111 J

A 0.02kg dart is loaded into a toy spring gun by compressing the spring 6cm. If the spring has a constant of 20 N/m, find… a. Th
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

a) 0.036 J b) 0.036J c) 0.036 d) 1.9m/s e) 0.18 m

Explanation:

Mass of the dart = 0.02kg, the spring was compressed to 6cm

Work needed to compress the spring = 1/2*k*x ^2 where k is the force constant of the spring in N/m, x is the distance it was compressed in m

Work needed to compress the spring = 0.5 * 20* 0.06^2 since 6cm = 6 / 100 = 0.06 m

Work needed to compress the spring = 0.036J

b) the total energy stored in the spring = the work done to compress the spring = 0.036J

c) kinetic energy of the dart as it leaves the the spring = elastic potential energy stored in the spring = the work done in compressing the = 0.036J using the law of conservation of energy; energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another.

d) 1/2mv^2 = 0.036

mv^2 = 0.036*2

v^2 = 0.036*2 / 0.02 = 3.6

v = √3.6 = 1.897 approx 1.9m/s

e) kinetic energy of the dart = work done against gravity to get the body to height h

Work done against gravity = potential energy conserved at height = -mgh g is negative because the motion is upward while gravity acts downward

0.036 = 0.02 * 9.81 * h

0.036 / ( 0.02*9.81) = h

h = 0.18 m

What happens to the boiling point of water as you climb higher up a mountain?
Maksim231197 [3]
The higher the pressure, the higher boiling point of water. At lower the pressure, the boiling point of water comes down. So, the lower pressure inreases the boiling resulting more evaporation. As we go higher in altitude, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This results in decreasing the boiling point at higher altitude and increase in boiling of water. In fact, at the sea level ,the the sea water boils at 100 degree C where atmospheric pressre is normal. However , the boiling takes place at a lower temperature at the top of a mountain due to low pressure. In other words the boling is faster at the top of a mountain than that at its foot.

If spring has a spring constant of 500 N/m and is stretched .50 meters,how much energy is stored in the spring ((show work for f
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The energy stored is: 62.5 Joules

Explanation:

Given

k = 500N/m --- spring constant

x = 0.5m --- stretch

Required

The amount of energy

This is calculated as:

U = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

U = \frac{1}{2} * 500N/m * (0.5m)^2

U = 250N/m * (0.5m)^2

U = 62.5\ J
