If a force of 50 Newton’s was applied to an object with a mass of 500 grams, what will the objects acceleration be?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:  100 m/s^2

F=ma

Explanation:

50N = 50 kg*m/s^2

500g = 0.5 kg

F=ma

a = F/m

a = (50 kg*m/s^2)/(0.5 kg)

a = 100 m/s^2

Four distinguishable particles move freely in a room divided into octants (there are no actual partitions). Let the basic states
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the door that leads to the room is opened, this gives room for particles to move into the next identical room and divided into octants. Now the amount of space that can be occupied becomes double, the number of basic states has increased by 404916

A cannon, located 60.0 m from the base of a vertical 25.0-m-tall cliff, shoots a 15-kg shell at 43.0o above the horizontal towar
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a)   v₀ = 32.64 m / s , b)  x = 59.68 m

Explanation:

a) This is a projectile launching exercise, we the distance and height of the cliff

         x = v₀ₓ t

         y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

We look for the components of speed with trigonometry

         sin 43 = v_{oy} / v₀

         cos 43 = v₀ₓ / v₀

         v_{oy} = v₀ sin 43

         v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 43

Let's look for time in the first equation and substitute in the second

         t = x / v₀ cos 43

         y = v₀ sin 43 (x / v₀ cos 43) - ½ g (x / v₀ cos 43)²

          y = x tan 43 - ½ g x² / v₀² cos² 43

          1 / v₀² = (x tan 43 - y) 2 cos² 43 / g x²

           v₀² = g x² / [(x tan 43 –y) 2 cos² 43]

Let's calculate

          v₀² = 9.8 60 2 / [(60 tan 43 - 25) 2 cos 43]

          v₀ = √ (35280 / 33.11)

          v₀ = 32.64 m / s

.b) we use the vertical distance equation with the speed found

         y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

         .y = v₀ sin43 t - ½ g t²

        25 = 32.64 sin 43 t - ½ 9.8 t²

        4.9 t² - 22.26 t + 25 = 0

         t² - 4.54 t + 5.10 = 0

We solve the second degree equation

         t = (4.54 ±√(4.54 2 - 4 5.1)) / 2

         t = (4.54 ± 0.46) / 2

         t₁ = 2.50 s

         t₂ = 2.04 s

The shortest time is when the cliff passes and the longest when it reaches the floor, with this time we look for the horizontal distance traveled

         x = v₀ₓ t

         x = v₀ cos 43 t

         x = 32.64 cos 43  2.50

         x = 59.68 m

Find the minimum radius of a helium balloon that will lift her off the ground. the density of helium gas is 0.178 kg/m3, and the
marysya [2.9K]

Volume of balloon = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Where r is the radius of balloon.

Here mass of woman = 68 kg

Mass of air displaced by a balloon with volume V = 1.29*V

Mass of helium inside balloon = 0.178*V

Total mass to be lifted by balloon = 68 +0.178*V

Buoyant force = 1.29V-0.178V=1.112V

So we have 1.112 V =  68+ 0.178*V

   0.934 V = 68

     V = 72.81 m^3

    \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}[/tex]= 72.81

     r = 2.59 m

So radius of helium balloon = 2.59 m

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.8m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels
katovenus [111]

To solve this problem we will apply the laws of Mersenne. Mersenne's laws are laws describing the frequency of oscillation of a stretched string or monochord, useful in musical tuning and musical instrument construction. This law tells us that the velocity in a string is directly proportional to the root of the applied tension, and inversely proportional to the root of the linear density, that is,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here,

v = Velocity

\mu= Linear density (Mass per  unit length)

T = Tension

Rearranging to find the Period we have that

T = v^2 \mu

T = v^2 (\frac{m}{L})

As we know that speed is equivalent to displacement in a unit of time, we will have to

T = (\frac{L}{t}) ^2(\frac{m}{L})

T = (\frac{7.8}{0.83})^2 (\frac{0.49}{7.8})

T = 5.54N

Therefore the tension is 5.54N
