Answer:

An object accelerates in the same direction as that of the force applied.

Explanation:

As we know that as per Newton's II law

Rate of change in momentum of the object is proportional to its net force

so here we have

\vec F = \frac{d\vec P}{dt}

now we know that

momentum is product of mass and velocity

\vec F = \frac{d m\vec v}{dt}

\vec F = m \frac{d\vec v}{dt}

\vec F = m\vec a

so here from above equation we can say that force vector and acceleration vector must be along same direction and hence object must have to accelerate in the direction of applied force.

A 15 kg block is on a ramp which is inclined at 20o above the horizontal. It is connected by a string to a 19 kg mass which hang
12345 [234]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the 19 kg block is 1.414 m/s²

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion;

F_{Net} = ma

where;

m is the mass of the objects involved, kg

a is the acceleration of the object, m/s²

different forces on the block and string

⇒force due to 15 kg block

=mgcosθ = 15×9.8×cos20 = 15×9.8×0.9396

= 138.12 N

⇒Tensional Force on 19 kg mass:

T = mg = 19×9.8 = 186.2 N

F_{Net} = T-mg = a(m_1+m_2)

186.2 - 138.12 = a(15+19)

48.08 =  a(34)

a = 48.08/34

a = 1.414 m/s²

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the 19 kg block is 1.414 m/s²

a car traveling at 24 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 6 seconds what is its acceleration?
Irina18 [472]
We can solve for the acceleration by using a kinematic equation. First we should identify what we know so we can choose the  correct equation.

We are given an original velocity of 24 m/s, a final velocity of 0 m/s, and a time  of 6 s. We and looking for acceleration (a) in m/s^2.

The following equation has everything we need:

v_f=v_i + at

So plug in the known values and solve for a:

0 = 24 + 6a

-24 = 6a

a = -4 m/s^2

Can someone help with these/
mafiozo [28]

One

If you use the right hand rule for these problems, you usually make your fingers and thumb sit at right angles to each other. What each of the two fingers means and that related to the thumb is a different story.  All you have to understand at this point is that all three are mutually perpendicular.

That makes C the answer.

All the other choices don't make that clear.

Two

This is a straight definition question. The definition says exactly what D says.

mr. tolman believes that our universe is expanding, but with all of the gravitational force from the celestial bodies of space,
marishachu [46]
Based on the description, it will be most likely that he believes in Oscillating model (also known as Cyclic model) of the universe

Based on this model, the gravitational force will prevent further expansion by pulling back the matters and undergo a bounce
