Net force acting on mass = 20 - 15 = 5N. ( subtracted cuz friction always opposes the motion i.e it always acts in direction opposite to the motion of the object). According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, F(net) = ma. a =F (net) / m = 5/10 = 0.5 m/s^2. Hope it helps :)

An object moves in uniform circular motion at 25 m/s and takes 1.0 second to go a quarter circle. Calculate the centripetal acce
tekilochka [14]

Given:

Object in circular motion 25 m/s

1 second to go quarter circle

Required:

Centripetal acceleration:

Solution:

Acceleration = v2/r

Where v is the velocity and r is the radian

Substituting the values into the equation,

Acceleration = v2/r = (25 m/s)2/(4*pi/180) = 8952.47 m2/s2

An object is moving east with a constant speed of 30 m/s for 5 seconds. What is the object’s acceleration?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

6 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 5 s

Acceleration (a) =..?

Acceleration is defined mathematically as:

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (v) /time (t)

a = v /t

With the above formula, we can obtain the acceleration of the object as follow:

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 5 s

Acceleration (a) =..?

a= v/t

a= 30/5

a = 6 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 6 m/s² due East.

An object moving north with an initial velocity of 14m/s accelerates 5m/s squared for 20 seconds. What is the final velocity of
Gemiola [76]

Since it moves 5 m/s faster every second, after 20 seconds it's moving 100 m/s faster than when it started speeding up.

If it was moving at 14 m/s when the acceleration began, it's moving at 114 m/s at the end of the 20 seconds.  Its velocity is <em>114 m/s North.</em>

That's 255 mph !

A 0.676 m long section of cable carrying current to a car starter motor makes an angle of 57.7º with the Earth’s 5.29 x 10^−5T f
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The current in the wire under the influence of the force is 216.033 A

Solution:

According to the question:

Length of the wire, l = 0.676 m

\theta = 57.7^{\circ}

Magnetic field of the Earth, B_{E} = 5.29\times 10^{- 5} T

Forces experienced by the wire, F_{m} = 6.53\times 10^{-3} N

Also, we know that the force in a magnetic field is given by:

F_{m} = IB_{E}lsin\theta

I = \frac{F_{m}}{B_{E}lsin\theta}

I = \frac{6.53\times 10^{-3}}{5.29\times 10^{- 5}\times 0.676sin57.7^{\circ}

I = 216.033 A
