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.

A pirate ship shoots a cannon towards an oncoming ship. The cannon ball has a mass of 25 kg and the ship has a mass of 2500 kg.
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

25 m/s in the opposite direction with the ship recoil velocity.

Explanation:

Assume the ship recoil velocity and velocity of the cannon ball aligns. By the law of momentum conservation, the momentum is conserved before and after the shooting. Before the shooting, the total momentum is 0 due to system is at rest. Therefore, the total momentum after the shooting must also be 0:

m_sv_s + m_bv_b = 0

where m_s = 2500 kg, m_b = 25 kg are masses of the ship and ball respectively. v_s = 0.25 m/s, v_b are the velocities of the ship and ball respectively, after the shooting.

2500*0.25 + 25*v_b = 0

25v_b = -2500*0.25

v_b = -2500*0.25/25 = -25 m/s

So the cannon ball has a velocity of 25 m/s in the opposite direction with the ship recoil velocity.

Harry and ron set up this experiment with a glider, whose mass they have measured to be 565 g, and seven washers hanging from th
svetlana [45]
Let's call m=565~g=0.565~kg the mass of the glider and m_w=7\cdot12~g =84~g=0.084~kg the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string. 
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:
F_{net} = m_w g
For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is m+m_w) and the acceleration a:
F_{net}=(m+m_w)a
So, if we equalize the two equations, we get
m_w g = (m+m_w)a
and from this we can find the acceleration:
a= \frac{m_w g}{(m+m_w)} = \frac{0.084~kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{(0.565~kg+0.084~kg)}=1.27~m/s^2
