For the given question, the mass of the cart is 320 Kg.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Newton’s second law, the rate of change in momentum exerted by an object is directly proportional to the unbalanced force exerted on the object. So

        \text {Unbalanced Force } F=\frac{d(\text {momentum})}{d t}

As momentum of an object is derived from the product of mass and velocity of the object. Thus,

                        \text {Momentum}=m \times v

So,

               \text {Unbalanced Force } F=\frac{d(m \times v)}{d t}

As mass of an object tend to be same irrespective of time and velocity can vary with time, we obtain,

\text {Unbalanced Force } F=m \times \frac{d v}{d t}=m \times \text { accelearation }

As it is known that rate of change in velocity is equal to the acceleration exerted by the object. Thus, Newton’s second law can also be stated as that the external unbalanced force exerted on the object will be equal to the mass of the object and the acceleration exerted by the object. So in the present case, as we known the force and acceleration, the mass of the object will be determined by the formula F = ma.

               F=m \times \text {acceleration}

Therefore,

             \text {Mass}=\frac{\text { Force }}{\text { Acceleration }}=\frac{8480}{26.5}=320 \mathrm{kg}

Why do nuclear power plants use fission rather than fusion to generate
kicyunya [14]

B. Fusion requires very high pressure and temperature.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.

Nuclear fission is the decay process in which a heavy nuclide is bombarded with with neutrons.

  • Both processes release a huge amount of energy.
  • But fusion produces far more energy.
  • The reason why nuclear fusion is not in use is because of the high pressure and temperature needed start it.
  • The activation energy is high and the energy barrier is very great.
  • Only the core of the sun naturally favors fusion

If a population is growing what can you conclude about the ammount of resources available
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Generally speaking, as the human population grows, our consumption of natural resources increases. More humans consume more freshwater, more land, more clothing, etc. ... For example, natural gas plants have become increasingly more efficient, thus humans are able to obtain more energy out of the same amount of gas.

Rapid population growth is detrimental to achieving economic and social progress and to sustainable management of the natural resource base. But there remains a sizeable gap between the private and social interest in fertility reduction, and this gap needs to be narrowed.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

It does not affect. The closest nebula is the Orion Nebula at more than 1300 light years from Earth. It is so remote that nothing that happens there can influence the Earth. The only influence is to have beautiful colors and shapes and to let us dream one day to go there and explore them.

A 0.060 kg ball hits the ground with a speed of –32 m/s. The ball is in contact with the ground for 45 milliseconds and the grou
FinnZ [79.3K]

<u>Answer</u>

= 9.25 m/s


<u>Explanation</u>

The Newton's second law of motion states that, the change in momentum is directly propotional to the force producing it and it takes place in the direction of force.

F = ma

f = m(v-u)/t

ft = m(v-u)

∴ 55 × 45/1000 = 0.060(v - -32)

2.475 = 0.06(v + 32)

2.475/0.6 = v + 32

41.25 = v + 32

v = 41.25 -32

= 9.25 m/s
