What are forces that two objects apply on each other
liq [111]
Answer: Whenever two objects are touching, they usually exert forces on each other. The force of gravity, on the other hand, is an example of a force that exists between objects without them having to be in contact. Objects with mass exert forces on each other via the force of gravity.

A 58.5 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 4.40 m/s2. What is the net external force on him?
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

External force on him = 257.40 N

Equation is; F = ma (where 'f' is force, 'm' is mass and 'a' is acceleration)

Explanation:

The mass of the sprinter is 58.5 kg

His acceleration is 4.40 m/s²

According to Newton's second law of motion; F = ma

External force on the sprinter = 58.5 kg × 4.40 m/s² = 257.40 N

The following best describes how an anthropogenic activity can increase ocean acidification?<br>​
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Emissions from power plants that burn fossil fuels increase atmospheric carbon dioxide, which is absorbed by the ocean.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are burnt in power plants in order to produce energy. These fossil fuels contain carbon. Combustion of these fossil fuels emits oxides of carbon into the atmosphere. The oxides of carbon are carbon II oxide and carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide can be absorbed by the ocean to form carbonic acid according to the reaction equation;

CO2(aq) + H2O(l) ------> H2CO3(aq)

This is an anthropogenic activity which increases ocean acidification.

You buy a plastic dart gun, and being a clever physics student you decide to do a quick calculation to find its maximum horizont
Scilla [17]

Answer:

R_{max} = 51.84 m

Explanation:

When we shoot the dart upwards the time taken by the dart to go straight up and again come back is given as

t = 4.6 s

here we can say

\Delta y = 0 = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0 = v_i t - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

put t = 4.6 s then we have

v_i = 22.54 s

Now in order to find the maximum range we can say

R = \frac{v^2 sin2\theta}{g}

so in order to have maximum range we can say

\theta = 45 degree

R_{max} = \frac{v^2}{g}

R_{max} = \frac{22.54^2}{9.8}

R_{max} = 51.84 m

During a collision, a 63.9-kilogram driver of a car moving at 24 m/s is brought to rest by an inflating airbag in 1.2 seconds. W
kaheart [24]

Hi there!

We can use impulse for this situation:

I = Δp = mΔv

Impulse = Force × time, so:

I = 63.9(24) = 1533.6 Ns

Find force by dividing by time:

I/t = 1533.6/1.2 = 1278 N
