Rashid [163]

Answer:

M= F^n / a+g

Explanation:

This shows correctly Newton’s second law, where sum of forces is divided by mass is equal to acceleration. Also mass can’t be negative so F^n is positive.

A car is traveling at a constant speed of 33 m/s on a highway. At the instant this car passes an entrance ramp, a second car ent
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

0.8712 m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Velocity of first car; v1 = 33 m/s

Distance; d = 2.5 km = 2500 m

Acceleration of first car; a1 = 0 m/s² (constant acceleration)

Velocity of second car; v2 = 0 m/s (since the second car starts from rest)

From Newton's equation of motion, we know that;

d = ut + ½at²

Thus,for first car, we have;

d = v1•t + ½(a1)t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 33t + 0

d = 33t

For second car, we have;

d = v2•t + ½(a2)•t²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

d = 0 + ½(a2)t²

d = ½(a2)t²

Since they meet at the next exit, then;

33t = ½(a2)t²

simplifying to get;

33 = ½(a2)t

Now, we also know that;

t = distance/speed = d/v1 = 2500/33

Thus;

33 = ½ × (a2) × (2500/33)

Rearranging, we have;

a2 = (33 × 33 × 2)/2500

a2 = 0.8712 m/s²

Which one of the following is a measurement of energy used?
Leokris [45]

The correct answer to the question is D) 6 joules.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, four measurements are given i.e 24 m/s, 60 mg, 15 L and 6 J.

We are asked to determine the measurement which corresponds to energy.

Energy is measured in various units like joule, erg, electron volt etc.

Joule is the unit of energy in S.I system.

Hence, the correct measurement which corresponds to energy is 6 joules.

All other measurements like 24 m/s, 60 mg and 15 L are not the measurements of energy. These are the measurements of speed, mass and volume respectively.
