Answer: The object acceleration also doubles.

Explanation:

Force is a product of mass of an object and its acceleration.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

Let assume for an object

Force applied = ? (unknown value)

Mass of object = K

Acceleration = N

Then, Force = Mass x Acceleration

Force = K x N

Force = KN

However, if the net force is doubled (i.e Force becomes 2KN from 2 x KN), find acceleration

Again, Force = Mass x Acceleration

2KN = K x ?

? = 2KN/K

? = 2N

Now, acceleration is 2N which indicates that it has also doubled. (since it was N before)

Thus, if the net force acting on an object doubles, the object acceleration also doubles.

Whats is the definition of Parallel Circuit

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

A parallel circuit is one in which there's a place where the flow of current
can split up and follow different paths.

An example might be:
Two lamps plugged into the same outlet and both turned on.

Current that comes out of the outlet splits up, and parts of it flow
through each lamp.

Higher Current = ________ Moving Electric Charges (Electrons) *

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Higher current is normally achieved by faster moving electrons.

Explanation:

Current is solely not the speed of the electric charges, but speed of the electrons is one of the factors that current depends on.

Current is the net charge flowing per unit time.

Current can be represented by:

I=v×e×N×A

where,

I= current

e= electric charge

v= speed of electrons

N=no. of free electric charges per volume

The unit of current is Ampere, represented by A. It is flow of 1 coulomb of charge in 1 second.

A car rolls backward from -2 to -10 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the acceleration. PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

pashok25 [27]

$\bf \underline{Given : }$

Initial velocity,u = -2 m/s

Final velocity,v = -10 m/s

Time taken, t = 4 seconds

$\bf \underline{To \: find \: out : }$

Find the acceleration ( a ) .

$\bf \underline{Solution : }$

We know that,

$\sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{v - u}{t}$

Substituting the values in the above formula, we get

$\implies \sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{ - 10 - ( - 2)}{4}$

$\implies\sf \: Acceleration = \dfrac{ - 10 + 2}{4}$

$\implies \sf \: Acceleration = \cancel \dfrac{ - 8}{4}$

$\implies\sf \: Acceleration = - 2 \: ms {}^{ - 2}$

Hence,the acceleration of a body is -2 m/s².

2. A student becomes so excited by the whole idea of black holes that he decides to jump into one. It has a mass 10 times the ma

LiRa [457]

Answer:

*Disclaimer you can't actually do that, or at least not yet because the nearest black hole is at least 1,000 light years away. But if we could...

His journy would be pretty fast and horrific. For him, he would slowly be streched apart or spegetified into a string of atoms as he nears the event horizoin. But for an outside observer he would apear to go slower and slower and would never actualy reach the event horizion. This is becuase of einstines general relativity, massive objects slow time down. He would also apear to become red as the lights wavelength is streched out due to the entense gravity of the black hole.
