Force = mass x acceleration. What is the correct unit of force?

The only thing in that messy list of choices that can be a unit of force is the <em>Newton.</em>

But this is not to say that choice-A is entirely correct ... "kgm/second/second" is pretty meaningless, and is NOT the same thing as a Newton.

1 Newton = 1 kgm-<u><em>meter</em></u>/second/second

choice-B . . . . . unit of speed

choice-C . . . . . rate of change of mass; no name

choice-D . . . . . unit of acceleration

Answer:

A. kgm/second/second or Newton

Explanation:

Force is measured in Newton's or (N)

A 1,500 kg car’s speed changes from 30 m/s to 15 m/s after the brakes are applied. Calculate the work done onto the car from the
HACTEHA [7]

The work done onto the car is 506,250 J

The work done on a system implies an increase in the internal energy of the system as a result of some forces acting on the system from the outside.

From the parameters given:

  • The mass of the car = 1500 kg
  • The initial speed = 30 m/s
  • The final speed = 15 m/s

The work done onto the car refers to the change in the kinetic energy (i.e. ΔK.E)

\mathbf{=\dfrac{1}{2} mv_1^2 -\dfrac{1}{2} mv_2^2}

\mathbf{=\dfrac{1}{2} m(v_1^2 - v_2^2)}

\mathbf{=\dfrac{1}{2} \times 1500 \times (30^2 - 15^2)}

= 506,250 J

Therefore, we can conclude that the work done on the car is 506,250 J

A vertical spring with a spring constant of 310 N/m is mounted on the floor. From directly above the spring, which is unstrained
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

7.3cm above the compressed spring.

Explanation:

We can use the conservation energy theorem to solve this problem:

U_{1}+K_1=U_e+U_2+K_2\\m*g*h+0=\frac{1}{2}k*x^2+0+0\\\\h=\frac{k*x^2}{2*m*g}\\\\h=\frac{310N/m*(3.6*10^{-2})^2}{2*0.28kg*9.8m/s^2}\\\\h=0.073m

The block was dropped 7.3cm above the compressed spring.

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion. Which o
Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.  

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.

A force of 9.00 newtons acts at an angle of 19.0° to the horizontal. What is its component in the horizontal direction?
g100num [7]
It would be helpful if you draw the figure of the problem. You will see that a right triangle would be constructed by the problem where 19.0 is the angle between the hypotenuse and the base of the triangle. It is said that the force acting is said to be 9.0 N  at the said angle to the horizontal. Using trigonometric relations,

cos 19 = adjacent / hypotenuse = horizontal component / 9
horizontal component = 8.51 N
