A toy train has an acceleration of 1.2 m/s2. A net force of 3.0 N is acting on the train. What is the mass of the train?

Answer:

2.5 kg

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

F is the net force acting on the train

m is the mass of the train

a is the acceleration

For the toy train in the problem,

F = 3.0 N

a = 1.2 m/s^2

So we can solve the formula for m, to find the mass of the train:

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{3.0 N}{1.2 m/s^2}=2.5 kg

If a hockey player starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.1 m/s2 how long does it take him to skate 30m

Hello!

<span>Let us apply the time function of space, in the uniform uniform motion (UUM)
</span>
Formula: S = S_{o} +  V_{o}* t + a* \frac{t^2}{2}

Data:
S (Final position) = 30 m
So (Initial Position) = 0 m
Vo (Initial velocity) = 0 m/s
t (time) = ? (in seconds)
a (acceleration) = 2.1 m/s²

Solving:
S = S_{o} + V_{o}* t + a* \frac{t^2}{2}
30 = 0 + 0*t + 2.1* \frac{t^2}{2}
30 =  \frac{2.1t^2}{2}
30*2 = 2.1t^2
60 = 2.1t^2
2.1t^2 = 60
t^2 =  \frac{60}{2.1}
t^2 \approx 28.5
t \approx  \sqrt{28.5}
\boxed{\boxed{t \approx 5.3\:s}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

A ball is thrown straight up. It passes a 2.00-m-high window 7.50 m off the ground on its path up and takes 1.30 s to go past th
OLga [1]

Answer:

u =  13.67 m/s

Explanation:

given,

window height = 2 m

window is 7.5 m off the ground on its path up

total distance from the ground to pass the window = 2 + 7.5 = 9.5 m

time taken to go past the window = 1.30 s

using equation of motion

S = u t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

(2+7.5)= u\times 1.3 -0.5\times 9.8\times 1.3^2

u\times 1.3 = 9.5 + 8.281

u =  13.67 m/s

hence, the initial velocity of the  ball is equal to 13.67 m/s
