Whenever the net force on a moving object is zero its acceleration is

Physics

adell [148]3 years ago

We only need to look at Newton's 2nd law of motion:

Net force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the net force on an object is zero, then either its mass or its acceleration must be zero.  If it's called an "object", then its mass isn't zero, so its acceleration is zero.

Which can do work faster-a 700 watt gasoline engine or a 300 watt electric motor
iogann1982 [59]

"700 watts" means 700 joules of work per second.

"300 watts" means 300 joules of work per second.

If the labels on both machines are true, and both machines
are loaded to their full capacity, then the 700-watt engine
is doing work faster than the 300-watt one.

A force of 20 newtons is exerted on a chair from its right and a force of 12 newtons is applied from its left. What is the net f
jeka94
The net force is the sum of the forces acting on an object ( chair ).
F net = F 1 + F 2
F 1 = 20 N, F 2 = - 12 N
F net = 20 N + ( - 12 N ) = 8 N
The chair will tend to move to the left.

the velocity of sound on a particular day outside is 331 meter/sound. what is the frequency of a tone if it has a wavelength 0.6
nataly862011 [7]
The frequency (f) in hertz (1/s) of the sound waves is the quotient when its speed (S) is divided by the wavelength (n). This is mathematically expressed, 
 
                      f = S / n      ;    f = (331 m/s) / (0.6 m)    =   551.67 / s  

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 551.67 Hz.

A weightlifter works out at the gym each day. Part of her routine is to lie on her back and lift a 43 kg barbell straight up fro
Tasya [4]

Answer:

A. 231.77 J

B. 5330.71 J

C. 46 donuts

Explanation:

A. To lift the barbell once, she will have to extend it the full length of her arm. The work done will then be:

W = F * d

Where the force is the weight of the barbell.

F = m * g

Hence, the work done in lifting the barbell is:

W = m * g * d

W = 43 * 9.8 * 0.55

W = 231.77 J

B. If she does 23 repetitions, the total energy she expend will be equal to the Potential energy when the barbell is lifted multiplied by 23:

E = 23 * m * g * d

E = 23 * 231.77

E = 5330.71 J

C. 1 Joule = 4.184 calories

5330.71 Joules = 5330.71 * 4.184 = 22303.69

If 1 donut contains 490 calories, the number of donuts she will need will be:

N = 22303.69/490 = 45.5 donuts or 46 donuts
