Answer
D) burning a candle
Explanation
When burning a candle no new substance is form.
We have both physical and chemical change occuring.
Physical part: Melting of the solid wax and evaporation of the liquid forms the physical change.
Chemical part: burning of the wax vapour forms the chemical change.
That's wave 'diffraction'.
Answer:
The mass of the child + skateboard is 50 kg
Explanation:
In this problem, we can apply Newton's second law:
F = ma
where
F is the net force on a system
m is the mass of the system
a is the acceleration of the system
In this problem, our system is the child + the skateboard. The net force on them is
F = 75 N
and their acceleration is
So we can re-arrange the equation above to find their combined mass:
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.
Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg
F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)
F = 83 N
