Two spaceships that have different masses but rocket engines of identical force are at rest in space. if they fire their rockets
NISA [10]
Force is calculated F=m×a.
If both ships speed up with the same force, but have a different mass, This means that a also has to be different. If F is the same but ship a has a bigger mass(m) than ship b, then the acceleration(a) of ship b has to be bigger so F of each ship is the same. So the ship with the smaller mass will speed up faster.

A boy pulls a sled of mass 5.0 kg with a rope that makes a 60.0° angle with respect to the horizontal surface of a frozen pond.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

μk = 0.124

Explanation:

Known data

m=5.0 kg : mass of the sled

T= 10 N   : force with which the boy pulls the rope

θ =60.0°  :angle of the rope with respect to the horizontal direction

g = 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

Newton's second law to the sled :

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Forces acting on the sled

W: Weight of the sled : In vertical and downward direction

N : Normal force : In vertical and upwards direction

f : Friction force: parallel to the movement of the sled and in the opposite direction to the movement

T:Rope tension : forming angle 60.0° of  of the rope with respect to the horizontal direction

Calculated of the W  of the sled

W= m*g

W=  5.0 kg* 9.8 m/s² = 49 N

x-y  components  of the tension of the rope  T

Tx= 10*cos60°= 5 N

Ty=  10*sin60° = 8.66 N

Calculated of the N

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay    ay = 0

N+Ty -W = 0

N = 49 N  -  8.66 N

N = 40.34 N

Calculated of the f

f = μk* N

f = μk* 40.34 Equation (1)

We apply the formula (1) to calculated f

∑Fx = m*ax  the sled moves with constant velocity, then ax=0

∑Fx = 0

Tx-f = 0

5 - f = 0

f =  5N

We replace f in the equation (1)

5 = μk* 40.34

μk = 5 / 40.34

μk = 0.124

Does distance from modem affect internet speed
7nadin3 [17]
It shouldn't, but to be honest, it kind of does.
The further you are away from the modem,
the less connectivity you have.
Because you can't connect really well, your internet slows down.

So... yes?
