Answer:

Explanation:

When the body has mass m

The force on a body is given as

F=ma

a=F/m

Then,

When you the mass is quadruple

i.e M=4m.

Then, let assume you are applying the same force

Then, using F=Ma

F=4ma

a=F/4m

This shows that the acceleration is reduced by quarter it former values.

If v lies in the first quadrant and makes an angle Ï/3 with the positive x-axis and |v| = 4, find v in component form.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

$v=$

Explanation:

We are given that

Magnitude of vector v= $\mid v\mid =4$

v lies in the first quadrant

$\theta=\frac{\pi}{3}$

$v_x=\mid v\mid cos\theta$

$v_y=\mid v\mid sin\theta$

Substitute the values then we get

$v_x=4cos\frac{\pi}{3}$

$v_x=4\times \frac{1}{2}=2$

$cos\frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{1}{2}$

$v_y=4\times sin\frac{\pi}{3}=4\times \frac{\sqrt 3}{2}=2\sqrt 3$

$sin\frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{\sqrt 3}{2}$

Therefore, the vector v in component form $=$

$v=$

What is the difference between newtons law of gravitation and Coulombs law?

svlad2 [7]

Coulomb's law explains the force between the charges whereas Newton's law of gravitation explains the force between the masses. ... The electrostatic force may be positive or negative in the case of Coulomb's law but the force is always negative in the case of Newton's law of gravitation

A radar transmits a signal towards an aeroplane. The velocity of the signal is 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. After 0.0036 s, the radar detects

avanturin [10]

The distance of the airplane from the radar will be 1.08×10⁶ m. Distance can refer to a physical length.

<h3>What is distance?</h3>

Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two objects or locations.

The distance of the airplane from the radar is found by the formula;

Distance = velocity × time

Distance = 3.0 x 10^8 m/s× 0.0036 s,

Distance = 1.08×10⁶ m.

Hence, the distance of the airplane from the radar will be 1.08×10⁶ m.
