Answer:5.35N

Explanation:

Force is defined as the product of mass of an object and its acceleration.

Acceleration is the change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

Acceleration = velocity/ time = 6.5/0.17 = 38.2m/s²

since F = ma and mass is 140g

140g to kg will be 140/1000 = 0.14kg

F = 0.14× 38.2

F = 5.35N

magnitude of the average force is 5.35N

Sliva [168]

Answer:

B.  0.50 meters/second^2

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of table (m) = 10.0 kg
  • Eli's force (F1) = 120 N
  • Andy's force (F2) = -125 N

Arranging Formulas and Substituting Values, Part 1:

  • F = F1 + F2
  • F = 120 + (-125)
  • F = -5 N
  • The -5 means that the table will move along the direction of the force applied by Andy.

Arranging Formulas and Substituting Values, Part 2:

  • m * a = F
  • a = F / M
  • a = -5 / 10.0 kg
  • a = -0.5 m/s^2

A 4.15-volt battery is connected across a parallel-plate capacitor. Illuminating the plates with ultraviolet light causes electr
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a ) 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) 1.28 X 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

When electrons are repelled by negative plates and attracted by positive plates , it will increase their kinetic energy.

Increase in their energy = 4.15 eV

= 4.5 X 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Initial kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv²

= 1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x ( 1.76 x 10⁶)²

= 14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹ J

Total energy

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹+14.09 X 10⁻¹⁹

= 20.73 x 10⁻¹⁹

If V be the increased velocity

1/2 m V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

.5 X 9.1 X 10⁻³¹ V² = 20.73 X 10⁻¹⁹

V = 2.13 X 10⁶ m/s .

b ) When electrons are released from positive plate , their speed are reduced because of attraction between electrons and positively charge plates.

Initial kinetic energy

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹ J (see above )

reduction in kinetic energy  

= 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J ( See above )

Total energy with electron -

= 14.09 x 10⁻¹⁹  - 6.64 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

If V be the energy of electrons reaching the negative plate,

1/2 m V² =7. 45 x 10⁻¹⁹

V = 1.28 X 10⁶ ms⁻¹

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

<span>KE = 1/2mv^2 = (1/2)(2000)(2^2) = 4000 J This must equal the net work acting on the car. W=Fd The net force is 1140-950= 190N. so, d=W/F = 4000/190 = 21.05 m</span>
