Given Information:

Mass = m = 500 kg

Acceleration = a = 10 cm/s²

Required Information:

Magnitude of rightward net force = F = ?

Answer:

Magnitude of rightward net force = 50 N

Explanation:

From the Newton's second law of motion

F = ma

Where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

To get force in Newtons first convert 10 cm/s² into m/s²

10/100 = 0.1 m/s²

F = 500*0.1

F = 50 N

Therefore, the magnitude of rightward net force acting on it is 50 Newtons.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of object is 500kg

m=500kg

The body accelerates at 10cm/s2

What is the magnitude of force?

The magnitude of force that push or pull a body of mass and causes it to change velocity i.e accelerate

The force is given as

Force= mass × acceleration

F=ma

The unit of mass(m) is kg

The unit of acceleration (a) is m/s²

The unit of Force(F) is Newton

So in the question given the acceleration is in cm/s², so we need to convert it to m/s

So, 1m=100cm

Then, 10cm/s²= 10cm/s² × 1m/100cm

So, a=0.1m/s²

Then applying the formula

F = ma

F = 500 × 0.1

F = 50 newton

The magnitude of force pushing the body forward is F = 50N

A guitar player tunes the fundamental frequency of a guitar string to 560 Hz. (a) What will be the fundamental frequency if she
lawyer [7]

Answer:

(a) if she increases the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased to 740.6 Hz

(b) If she decrease the length of the the string by one-third the fundamental frequency will be increased to 840 Hz

Explanation:

(a) The fundamental, f₁, frequency is given as follows;

f_1 = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L}

Where;

T = The tension in the string

μ = The linear density of the string

L = The length of the string

f₁ = The fundamental frequency = 560 Hz

If the tension in the string is increased by 15%, we will have;

f_{(1  \, new)} = \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T\times 1.15}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L} = 1.3225 \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L}  = 1.3225 \times f_1

f_{(1  \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 = (1 + 0.3225) \times f_1

f_{(1  \, new)} = 1.3225 \times f_1 =\dfrac{132.25}{100} \times 560 \ Hz  = 740.6 \  Hz

Therefore, if the tension in the string is increased by 15%, the fundamental frequency will be increased by a fraction of 0.3225 or 32.25% to 740.6 Hz

(b) When the string length is decreased by one-third, we have;

The new length of the string, L_{new} = 2/3·L

The value of the fundamental frequency will then be given as follows;

f_{(1  \, new)} =  \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \times \dfrac{2 \times L}{3} }  =\dfrac{3}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}  }{2 \cdot L} = \dfrac{3}{2} \times 560 \ Hz =  840 \ Hz

When the string length is reduced by one-third, the fundamental frequency increases to one-half or 50% to 840 Hz.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
lys-0071 [83]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

A mass on a spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of the same mass on spring B. Which statement is correct?A.The spring con
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A.

Explanation:

If spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of spring B, and period is frequency inverted. It means spring B has a period twice of spring A's.

T_B = 2T_A

As T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}, and the 2 springs have the same mass

2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_B}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_A}}

\sqrt{k_A} = 2\sqrt{B}

k_A = 4k_B

k_B = k_A/4

So A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A. is the correct answer.
