How does the direction of acceleration compare with the direction of the net force that produces it

Physics
1 answer:
Novay_Z [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of the acceleration is in the same direction as the net force causing it.  F = ma is actually a vector equation in which f and a are both vectors and m is a scalar constant.

If 5 mm of rain falls in a 100 m2 field, what volume of rain, in m3, fell in the field?
Nina [5.8K]

The volume of rain that fells in the field is simply given by the area of the field, which is

A=100 mm^2

multiplied by the height of rain that fell, which is

h=5.0 mm

Therefore, the volume is

V=hA=(5 mm)(100 mm^2)=500 mm^3

An object has traveled 20 meters in 40 seconds what is its average speed
Mice21 [21]

Hello,


To solve we need to know the formula for speed

The formula is D/T=S     (Distance of time=speed)

Now all we have to do is plug in the numbers.

20/40= 1/2 or 0.5

SO the speed is 0.5 m/s


Have a great day!

A ball is falling at terminal velocity. Terminal velocity occurs when the ball is in equilibrium and the forces are balanced. Wh
Greeley [361]

Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.
