A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression a = a

₁ + Fm where a₁ = 3.00 meter/second², F = 12.0 kilogram⋅meter/second² and m =7.00 kilogram. First, which of the following is the correct step for obtaining a common denominator for the two fractions in the expression in solving for a?
a. (m/m times a₁/1) + (1/1 times F/m)
b. (1/m times a₁/1) + (1/m times F/m)
c. (m/m times a₁/1) + (F/F times F/m)
d. (m/m times a₁/1) +(m/m times F/m )

Answer:

The correct option is option (a).

The acceleration of an object is \frac{33}{7} m/s².

Explanation:

Given expression is

a=a_1+\frac Fm

[ divide a whole number by 1 to turn into a fraction. Since a_1 is a whole number, so  a_1  is divided by 1 to turn into a fraction]

\Rightarrow a=\frac{a_1}{1}+\frac Fm

[The l.c.m of the denominators 1 and m is m. Now multiply both numerator and denominator by m of \frac{a_1}1 and multiply both numerator and denominator by 1 of \frac Fm]

\Rightarrow a=(\frac mm\times\frac{a_1}{1})+(\frac 11\times\frac Fm)

The correct option is option (a)

Given that,

F= 12.0 kg.m/s² , m=7.00 kg and a_1 = 3.00 m/s²

\therefore a=(\frac mm\times\frac{a_1}{1})+(\frac 11\times\frac Fm)

     =(\frac{7.00}{7.00}\times \frac{3.00}{1})+(\frac11\times \frac{12.0}{7.00})

    =\frac{21}{7}+\frac{12}{7}

    =\frac{21+12}{7}

    =\frac{33}{7} m/s²

The acceleration of an object is \frac{33}{7} m/s².

How is power defined? Question 4 options: the quantity of work accomplished the direction of the work the total distance an obje
GarryVolchara [31]

Power can be defined as the rate at which work is accomplished.

Option D is the correct answer.

<h3></h3><h3>Power </h3>

The work done by an object in a given time interval is called the power of that object.

Suppose an external force F is applied to any object for the time interval T seconds. Due to this external force, the object will perform some amount of work for the time T seconds. This work W done by the object for the time interval T seconds is called the power of that object.

Power can be defined in mathematical term which is given below.

P = \dfrac {W}{T} \;\rm Watts

Thus the power can also be defined as the work done by the object per unit time interval.

Hence we can conclude that option D is the correct answer.

To know more about power, follow the link given below.

the pressure of a gas is 100.0kpa and its volume is 500.0ml if the volume increase to 1000.0ml what is the new pressure of the g
Ket [755]

50Kpa

Explanation:

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

P1= 100. P2= ?

V1 = 500. V2 = 1000

100 × 500 = P2 × 1000

50000 = 1000P2

50000/1000 = P2

50 = P2

P2 = 50Kpa

What is stopping distance of a body at 20 m/s is decelerated at 2m/s² to rest?<br>​
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

s = 100 m

Explanation:

v² = u² + 2as

s = (v² - u²) / 2a

s = (0² - 20²) / 2(-2)

s = 100 m
