Answer:

176,000 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F = (4 × 40,000 kg) (1.1 m/s²)

F = 176,000 N

Answer:

176,000N

Explanation:

According to newton's second law,

Force (F) = mass (m) × acceleration(a)

Given a train pulling four cars with mass of each cars as 40,000kg, total mass of four cars will be 4×40,000 = 160,000kg

If the train accelerates at 1.1m/s²,

Force produced by the train will give;

F = 160,000×1.1

F = 176,000N

Which statement best describes a wave?
dedylja [7]

Correct answer choice is:

D. A continuous transmission of energy from one location to the next.

Explanation:

Waves include the carrier of energy without the carrier of matter. In outcome, a wave can be characterized as a change that progresses into a medium, carrying energy from one spot (its source) to different spot without carrying matter.

HELP PLEASE 20 POINTS SHOW WORK, ALL EQUATIONS
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

s = 3 m

Explanation:

Let t be the time the accelerating car starts.

Let's assume the vehicles are point masses so that "passing" takes no time.

the position of the constant velocity and accelerating vehicles are

s = vt = 40(t + 2)  cm

s = ½at² = ½(20)(t)² cm

they pass when their distance is the same

½(20)(t)² = 40(t + 2)

10t² = 40t + 80

0 = 10t² - 40t - 80

0 = t² - 4t - 8

t = (4±√(4² - 4(1)(-8))) / 2(1)

t = (4± 6.928) / 2  ignore the negative time as it has not occurred yet.

t = 5.464 s

s = 40(5.464 + 2) = 298.564 cm

300 cm when rounded to the single significant digit of the question numerals.

In which phase of mitosis are chromosome first seen as a result of chromatin coiling?
Kruka [31]
<span>Mitosis is a a means for cells to split and produce exact copies of themselves. The process produces two identical copies of the original cell and occurs throughout the human body. Mitosis is divided up into four main phases known as prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. The chromosomes first become visible in early prophase.</span>
