Answer:

The acceleration of the refrigerator is a= 0.056 ms^{-2}

Explanation:

The expression of the equation of the net force acting on the refrigerator is as follows;

F-f= ma

Here, F is the applied force, f is the force of friction, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

It is given in the problem that you're having a hard time pushing a refrigerator having mass 355 kg across the kitchen floor. The force of your own push is 993 N. The force of friction opposing your own push is 973 N.

Put F= 993, f= 973 N and m = 355 kg in the above expression of the equation to calculate the acceleration of the refrigerator.

993 - 973 = (355)a

20 = 355 a

a= 0.056 ms^{-2}

Therefore, the acceleration of the refrigerator is a= 0.056 ms^{-2}.

When air resistance is ignored, _____ of the projectile affect(s) the range and maximum height of the projectile.
FromTheMoon [43]

When air resistance is ignored, initial velocity of the projectile affect the range and maximum height of the projectile.

Projectile is a missile designed to be fired from a rocket or gun.

A projectile is the object that is propelled by the application of an external force and then moves freely under the influence of gravity and air resistance.

The range is defined as the distance between the launch point and the point where the projectile hits the ground.

The height from the ground at the top most position of projectile is referred to as maximum height.

When air resistance is ignored, initial velocity of the projectile affect the range and maximum height of the projectile.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 22 and its mass number is 96?
Dovator [93]
1. The mass number is protons + neutrons = mass number. In this case, we have protons + neutron = 164.The atomic number is simply the number of protons so we have 43 + neutrons = 164. Subtracting 43 from both sides we get neutrons = 121.
2.  = 4

3. The number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons. 

A=mass number: 
Z=atomic number (= number of protons)
N=number of neutrons:

A=Z+N

If the number of protons in the nucleus is equal the number of neutrons , we would have an even mass number; because Z=N=x; then A=x+x=2x  (this is always an even number) but  23 is an odd number, therefore the number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.

A pendulum at position A is released and swings through position B to position Con the other side.
zaharov [31]

Explanation:

Given the conditions A,B and C when the pendulum is released, at point A the initial velocity of the pendulum is zero(0), the potential energy stored is maximum(P.E= max),

the conditions can be summarized bellow

point A

initial velocity= 0

final velocity=0

P.E= Max

K.E= 0

point B

initial velocity= maximum

final velocity=maximum

P.E=K.E

point C

initial velocity= min

final velocity=min

P.E= 0

K.E= max
