A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 n. if there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag

Force = mass * acceleration
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N;

F = ma
30 = 10a

Solving for a:
a = 3 m/s^2

The acceleration is 3 meters per second squared.

Convert 3402kgm/s to 20000Newtons
oee [108]

The 3,402 has units of kg-m/s.  That's momentum.  The 20,000 has units of Newtons.  That's force.  Momentum and force are different physical things, and you can't convert them from one to the other.

The best I can do for you is something like this:

Let's say you have a moving object with 3,402 kg-m/s of momentum, and you want to STOP it completely.  You want to stand in front of it and push back on it, hard enough and for long enough to CHANGE its momentum from 3,402 kg-m/s to zero.

Also ... there's a limit to how hard you can push.  The most force you can exert is 20,000 Newtons.

The amount you'll change its momentum is called the <u><em>impulse</em></u> you give it.  The quantity of impulse is (force) x (length of time you push on it).

So you need to keep pushing it back for (T seconds) long enough so that

(20,000 Newtons of force) x (T seconds) = 3,402 kg-m/s of momentum .

Divide each side of that equation by (20,000 Newtons). Then it says:

(T seconds) = (3,402 kg-m/s) / (20,000 Newtons)

<em>T = 0.1701 second</em>

And that's how you provide just enough impulse to stop the flying object ... push on it with 20,000 Newtons of force for exactly 0.1701 second, and it loses all its momentum and falls out of the air onto the ground at your feet.

This story is the closest I can come to anything that looks like "convert"ing momentum into force.

A car interior is heated to 48 C by the sun What type of energy transfer?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Radiation heat energy transfer

Explanation:

The type of heat transfer from the Sun is radiation heat transfer, which is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic radiation

The distance of the Sun to the Earth is several million kilometers away, with the space between being composes of vacuum and the nuclear reaction in the Sun's core generates vast amount of electromagnetic radiation that is transferred all across the universe and reaches the Earth as visible light and radiant energy at the speed of light

The radiant energy transferred from the Sun heats up the Earth, including the car's interior.

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.

Two 30 uC charges lie on the x-axis, one at the origin and the other at 9 m. A third point is located at 27 m. What is the poten
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

25000 V

Explanation:

The formula for potential is

V = Kq/r

Potential at B due to the charge placed at origin O

V1 = K q / OB

V_{1}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{27}

V1 = 10000 V

Potential at B due to the charge placed at A

V2 = K q / AB

V_{2}= \frac{9 \times 10^{9} \times 30 \times 10^{-6}}{18}

V2 = 15000 V

Total potential at B

V = V1 + V2 = 10000 + 15000 = 25000 V
