Use Newton's (second) Law:
F=ma
with your data:
200=97a
a=2m/s^{2}

Imagine a ball is moving on the following horizontal line.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Take right as positive. O is the starting point of the ball. Denote the ball by o.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . . . . ... . . o . . . . . .

Assume the ball is moving to the right. It has positive displacement since it is on the right of O, and positive velocity since its positive displacement is increasing.

.ñ

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . O. . . . o . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now the ball is returning to O. It still has positive displacement since its current position is still on the right of O. However, its velocity is negative since its positive displacement is decreasing and the direction of the velocity vector points left, which is the negative side.

By now you should be able to come up with a scenario where the ball has negative displacement and positive velocity.

You can observe the same phenomenon in daily life. Say, as a stretched spring bounces to its starting position, if we let the returning direction be positive, the string has negative displacement since it is on the negative direction, but has positive velocity. Bungee jump can also used to illustrate the phenomenon.

Possible reasons why seascorpions went extinct
BabaBlast [244]
Sea scorpions or Eurypterids lived about 251.9 million years ago. They were formidable predators and hunters, but they were wiped out in the Great Permian Mass Extinction, which is also known as the Great Dying (96% of all species on Earth went extinct).The largest species like Jaekelopterus was over 7 feet long! They were mainly thought to go extinct because of a slew of natural disasters that occurred when a comet hit the Earth, as well as increased volcanic activity polluting the seas that Sea scorpions lived in, as well as rising sea temperatures. The Silurian, when these Sea scorpions proliferated was when the water was cooler, holding in more nutrients, allowing both Sea Scorpions and other animals to spread all over the world. But as the oceans became polluted from the volcanoes (and the ash they produced) and the global ocean temperatures began to rise, many animals may not have been able to cope or adapt to the extreme change, becoming helpless in their nutrient deficient water (compared to what they were used to).

I hope this helps!

An astronaut on a small planet wishes to measure the local value of g by timing pulses traveling down a wire which has a large o
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

0.53m/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of wire=m=3.6 g=3.6\times 10^{-3} kg

1 kg=1000 g

Length of wire=l=1.6 m

Mass of object=m'=3 kg

Time,t=60.1 ms=60.1\times 10^{-3} s

1 ms=10^{-3} s

Speed,v=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{1.6}{60.1\times 10^{-3}}=26.62 m/s

g=\frac{v^2m}{m'l}

Using the formula

g=\frac{(26.62)^2\times 3.6\times 10^{-3}}{3\times 1.6}=0.53m/s^2

Two identical charges q placed 2.0 mapart exert forces of magnitude 4.0 N on each other What is the value of the charge q? a) q
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

c) 4.2*10^{-5}C

Explanation:

Coulomb's law says that the force exerted between two charges is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them, and is given by the expression:

F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

where k is a proportionality constant with the value k=9*10^{9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}

In this case q_{1}=q_{2}=q, so we have:

F=\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

Solving the equation for q, we have:

kq^{2}=Fr^{2}

q^{2}=\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}

q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^{2}}{k}}

Replacing the given values:

q=\sqrt{\frac{4.0N*(2.0m)^{2}}{9*10^{-9}\frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}}}

q=4.2*10^{-5}C
