A=(v2-v1)/t
v2=0,6m/s
v1=2,4m/s
t=4s
a=(0,6-2,4)/4=-1,8/4=-0,45 m/s^2

If a 16 N net force makes an object accelerate at 4 m/s2, what is the mass of the object?

12345 [234]

Answer:

4 kg

Explanation:

Acceleration = 4 m/s^2

Force = 16 N

Force = mass * acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 16 / 4

mass = 4 kg

It has been suggested that rotating cylinders about 9 mi long and 5.9 mi in diameter be placed in space and used as colonies. Wh

Answer:

$\omega = 4.5\times 10^{-2} rad/s$

Explanation:

Given data:

Rotating cylinder length = 9 mi

diameter of cylinder is 5.9 mi

we know that linear acceleration is given as

a = r ω^2

where ω is angular velocity

so $\omega = \sqrt{\frac{a}{r}}$

$r = \frac{5.9}[2} \frac{1609 m}{1 mi} = 4.746\times 10^{3} m$

$\omega = \sqrt{\frac{9.80}{4.746\times 10^{3}}}$

$\omega = 4.5\times 10^{-2} rad/s$
