A pulled tablecloth exerts a frictional force of 0.6 n on a plate with a mass of 0.4 kg. what is the acceleration of the plate?

Physics

Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
6 0
The formula for acceleration is a = F/m; Where: F = force; m = mass
Given: F = .6n; m = .4kg; a = ?
a = F/m
  = .6/.4
  = 1.5

Therefore, the acceleration of the plate is 1.5 m/s^2

The principle of work states that the ratio of work output to work input is always
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

work output is always less than work input - the ratio is less than 1.

Explanation:

This principle comes from the fact that a machine or system cannot produce more work than is supplied to it, because this would violate the energy conservation law (work is a type of mechanical energy).

In theoretical machines called "ideal machines" the input work is the same as the output work, but these machines are only theoretical because in real applications there is always some type of energy loss, either in heat produced by a machine or processes for its operation, for this reason the output work is always less than the input work.

Regarding the ratio work output to work input:

\frac{WO}{WI} < 1

because work input WI is always greater than work output WO.

How many joules of kinetic energy does a pendulum have when it has 100 joules of potential energy
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The maximum kinetic energy is 100 j.    

Explanation:

<h3>The kinetic energy = (potential energy) + (kinetic energy) and the potential energy of 0 J implying its kinetic energy is 100 J, which is its maximum. </h3>

How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?
murzikaleks [220]

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.
