Answer:

F = 3600 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of force must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

ΣF = m*a

where:

F = force [N]

m = mass = 2000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 1.8 [m/s^2]

Now replacing:

F = 2000*1.8

F = 3600 [N]

Define thermopile and peltiers??​
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Thermopile is an electronic device that converts thermal energy into electrical energy.

A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric heat pump is a solid-state active heat pump which transfers heat from one side of the device to the other, with consumption of electrical energy, depending on the direction of the current.

A foot player runs 1.6m/s and has a KE of 790 J. What is his mass?
Mariana [72]
The equation for kinetic energy is,

Ke = (1/2)mv^2.

You're given a kinetic energy of 790 joules, and a speed of 1.6 m/s. Plugging these values into the equation, we get,

790 = (1/2)(1.6)^2(m).

Solving for m, we get,

m = (790)/(0.5(1.6)^2).

I'll let you crunch out those numbers for yourself :D

In stars mor massive than the sun, fusion continues until the core is almost all....
serious [3.7K]
In stars more massive than the sun, the core temperature is hotter, which allows for fusion of more complex elements.

Most of the fusion occurs in the core.

In stars more massive than the sun, fusion continues through Deuterium, Carbon, and finally reaching iron/nickel.

Up to this point, the fusion reaction was endothermic, which means that the energy expended to produce the fusion reaction was exceeded by the energy produced in the reaction.

Fusion past iron is exothermic, and therefore the star will be able to survive by fusing elements heavier than iron.

After the core is almost entirely iron, the star is no longer in the Main Sequence.

So, fusion in stars more massive than the sun continue fusing until the core is almost entirely <em>iron</em>.

Artist 52 [7]

A visual display of data or information is called a graph. There are many types of graphs. These can include pie graphs, bar graphs, and many more. Graphs are useful, because they show you visually data which is helpful to many. Hope this helped

Why is figure 5 an unhelpful visualization tool for this data set? <br><br> Please help!
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another
