A ball with a mass of 5 kg is acted upon by a force of 20 N. If the ball begins moving from a velocity of 0 m/s and accelerates

for 2 seconds, what is its change in velocity?

The answer is d

F=ma. so by substituting we find that a=4

and a=vi-vf/t

by substiting we find vf=8

so the difference is vf-vi = 8m/s

An electric travel blanket uses a car's 12V supply. The current is 3A.

snow_lady [41]

For electrical devices . . .

   Power dissipated = (voltage) x (current) =

   (12 V) x (3.0 A) = 36 watts .

1 watt means 1 joule per second

   (36 joule/sec) x (60 sec/min) x (10 min) = 21,600 joules

Why do some objects fall faster than others?

monitta

Answer:

Weight and Mass !!!!!!

Explanation:

Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earth's surface with an initial speed of 2.05 104 m/s. What will its speed be wh

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The value is $v = 2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial speed is $u = 2.05 *10^{4} \ m/s$

Generally the total energy possessed by the space probe when on earth is mathematically represented as

$T__{E}} = KE__{i}} + KE__{e}}$

Here $KE_i$ is the kinetic energy of the space probe due to its initial speed which is mathematically represented as

$KE_i = \frac{1}{2} * m * u^2$

=> $KE_i = \frac{1}{2} * m * (2.05 *10^{4})^2$

=> $KE_i = 2.101 *10^{8} \ \ m \ \ J$

And $KE_e$ is the kinetic energy that the space probe requires to escape the Earth's gravitational pull , this is mathematically represented as

$KE_e = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_e^2$

Here $v_e$ is the escape velocity from earth which has a value $v_e = 11.2 *10^{3} \ m/s$

=> $KE_e = \frac{1}{2} * m * (11.3 *10^{3})^2$

=> $KE_e = 6.272 *10^{7} \ \ m \ \ J$

Generally given that at a position that is very far from the earth that the is Zero, the kinetic energy at that position is mathematically represented as

$KE_p = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2$

Generally from the law energy conservation we have that

$T__{E}} = KE_p$

So

$2.101 *10^{8} m + 6.272 *10^{7} m = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2$

=> $5.4564 *10^{8} = v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{5.4564 *10^{8}}$

=> $v = 2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s$
