A car generates 2,552 N and weighs 2,250 pounds. what is the rate of acceleration

1 answer:

6 0

Ans: a = 2.50 m/s^2

Explanation:
First convert the mass in its standard unit i.e. kilogram(kg):
2250 lbs = 1020.583kg

Next use Newton's Second law:
F = ma

Where F = 2552N
m = 1020.583kg

=> a = (2552/1020.583)
a = 2.50 m/s^2

Answer:

(E) Second law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics can be understood according to Clausius' words: In an isolated system, no process can occur if a decrease in the total entropy of the system is associated with it. These processes are associated with energy transformations, in which a variable is introduced, called entropy that indicates the notion of disorder. Therefore, in any isolated process, the disorder can only grow.

butalik [34]

Answer:

$u=34cm$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Far point is $V=34 cm$

Near point is $u=17 cm$

Therefore

Focal Length

$f=-34cm$

Generally the equation for the Lens is mathematically given by

$\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{v}$

$\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{-34}-\frac{1}{-17}$

$u=34cm$

cupoosta [38]

Explanation:

As light is an electromagnetic wave that causes sensation of sight.

Every electromagnetic wave has electrical and magnetic components in it which are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

The electrical and magnetic components are mutually perpendicular to each other in an electromagnetic wave.

The speed of light in vacuum is c=3\times 10^{8}\ m.s^{-1}, which decreases when it passes through a matter (precisely a transparent medium) which allows the passage of light through it. When the light passes through some transparent matter then its speed decreases as compared to the speed of light in vacuum.
