Answer:

a.) 600N

b.) 2 m/s^2

Explanation:

a.)

In order to solve for the needed force, you must use Newton's 2nd law which states that a force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration.

Basically: Force = mass * acceleration ; F = ma

Since both mass and acceleration are already given, just plug them into the formula and solve for force:

Mass = 200kg

Acceleration = 3m/s^2

F = m * a = 200 * 3 = 600kg * m/s^2 = 600N

b.)

In order to find the acceleration, like the hint already says, you need to find the net force first and then use Newton's 2nd law.

To calculate net force:

Since both forces are parallel (affect the same axis) and in opposite directions, you can subtract the two in order to find resultant magnitude. The resultant direction is the direction of the force with the large magnitude.

Net Force: 8N - 4N = 4N

Net Force Direction: since 8N > 4N, the direction is in the same direciton as the 8N force = Left

Finally, you find acceleration using newton's 2nd law, F = ma.

Since you already know mass and net force, plug in to solve for acceleration:

4N = 2kg * a

a = 4 N / 2kg = 2m/s^2

The radiation per unit area from the Sun reaching the earth is 1400 W/m2 , approximately the amount of radiative power per unit

natka813 [3]

Answer:

83.2 W/m^2

Explanation:

The radiation per unit area of a star is directly proportional to the power emitted, which is given by Stefan-Boltzmann law:

$P=\sigma A T^4$

where

$\sigma$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant

A is the surface area

T is the surface temperature

So, we see that the radiation per unit area is proportional to the fourth power of the temperature:

$I \propto T^4$

So in our problem we can write:

$I_1 : T_1^4 = I_2 : T_2^4$

where

$I_1 = 1400 W/m^2$ is the power per unit area of the present sun

$T_1 = 5800 K$ is the temperature of the sun

$I_2$ is the power per unit area of sun X

$T_2 = 2864 K$ is the temperature of sun X

Solving for I2, we find

$I_2 = \frac{I_1 T_2^4}{T_1^4}=\frac{(1400 W/m^2)(2864 K)^4}{(5800 K)^4}=83.2 W/m^2$

Which image represents the force on a positively charged particle caused by an approaching magnet?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Image B represents the force on a positively charged particle caused by an approaching magnet.

Explanation:

The most fundamental law of magnetism is that like shafts repulse each other and dissimilar to posts pull in one another; this can without much of a stretch be seen by endeavoring to put like posts of two magnets together. Further attractive impacts additionally exist. On the off chance that a bar magnet is cut into two pieces, the pieces become singular magnets with inverse shafts. Also, pounding, warming or winding of the magnets can demagnetize them, on the grounds that such dealing with separates the direct game plan of the particles. A last law of magnetism alludes to maintenance; a long bar magnet will hold its magnetism longer than a short bar magnet. The domain theory of magnetism expresses that every single enormous magnet involve littler attractive districts, or domains. The attractive character of domains originates from the nearness of significantly littler units, called dipoles. Iotas are masterminded in such a manner in many materials that the attractive direction of one electron counteracts the direction of another; in any case, ferromagnetic substances, for example, iron are unique. The nuclear cosmetics of these substances is with the end goal that littler gatherings of particles unite as one into zones called domains; in these, all the electrons have the equivalent attractive direction.

A 5,400 W motor is used to do work. If the motor is used for 640 s, about how much work could it do?

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

3,500,000 J

Explanation:

WORK = POWER * TIME

WORK= 5400 * 640

=6456000 J = 3,500,000 J

The significant feature of a Cepheid variable is that there is a relationship between two intrinsic parameters, one of which can

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.
