An airplane with a mass of 5,000 kg needs to accelerate 5 m/s2 to take off before it reaches the end of the runway. How much for
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

<h2>25000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 5000 × 5

We have the final answer as

<h3>25000 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.

Newton began his academic career in 1667. For how long was he a working scientist? Was he a very productive scientist?
rjkz [21]
Newton's 3 laws are...

inertia: things tend to continue to do what they are doing.

Change: to make something change you need a force to change it. the force needed = the mass times its acceleration

<span> Resistance: When you push on something, it pushes back.

A 60 kg person sits in a chair. How much does the earth pull on the person? (Acceleration due to gravity is -10m/s2) F = mxa → F
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

<em>600N(downwards)</em>

Explanations

<em>600N(downwards)</em>

Mas of the person = 60kg

Acceleration due to gravity = -10m/s²

To get the earths pull on the person, we will use the Newton second law of motion;

Force = mass * acceleration;

Force = 60 * -10

Force- -600N

<em>Hence the earth gravitational pull on the person is 600N(downwards). It is downwards due to the negative sign.</em>
