Answer:

-35 m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Deceleration is the complete opposite of acceleration and is calculated by adding a negative sign to the formula for finding acceleration.</u>

Since acceleration is calculated by diving the change in velocity with time, deceleration will become:

 Deceleration =   -Δv/t, where Δv = change in velocity and t = time

In this case, Δv = 70 m/s and t = 2 s, hence;

Deceleration = -70/2 = -35 m/s^2

<em>The deceleration is 35 </em>m/s^2<em>.</em>

A 5.0 kg block is placed on a 30 degree friction-less incline on the surface of earth. What will be the acceleration of the bloc
pshichka [43]

The net force on the block parallel to the incline is

∑ F = -mg sin(θ) = ma

where m is the mass of the block, g = 9.8 m/s² is the acceleration due to gravity, θ is the angle the incline makes with the horizontal, and a is the acceleration of the block. Solving for a gives

a = -g sin(θ)

so the block would slide down the incline with acceleration

a = - (9.8 m/s²) sin(30°) = -4.9 m/s²

What gravitational force does the moon produce
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1.94\cdot 10^{20} N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

The gravitational force is always attractive.

In this problem, we have:

m_1 = 5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg is the mass of the Earth

m_2 = 7.34\cdot 10^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.88\cdot 10^8 m is the separation between the Earth and the Moon

Therefore, the gravitational force between them is

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(5.98\cdot 10^{24})(7.34\cdot 10^{22})}{(3.88\cdot 10^8)^2}=1.94\cdot 10^{20} N
