At baseball practice, Mason and Alfredo both picked up the same bat and neither would let go until one of them had it for himsel

f. Mason pulled the bat with
force of 15 newtons (N) while Alfredo pulled with a force of 20 newtons (N). Why did Alfredo end up with the bat?

A because the force was 5 N in Mason's direction

B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction

c. O because the net force was 15 N in Mason's direction

D.O because the net force was 20 N in Alfredo's direction

Answer:

Option B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction

Explanation:

To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:

Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N

Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = 20 – 15

Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction

From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.

During takeoff, an airplane goes from 0 to 60 m/s in 10 s.
Elis [28]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

acceleration = Δv /Δt

  for this situation  60 / 10 = 6 m/s^2

B)  vf = vo + at

vf = 0   + 6(3)  =<u> 18 m/s   after 3 seconds </u>

<u />

C)   vf = at

60 = 6 ( t)      t = 10 seconds   ( actually, this was given)  

d = 1/2 a t^2

  = 1/2 (6) (10)^2 = <u>300 m  </u>

In a real system of levers, wheels, or pulleys, the AMA is less than the IMA because _____.
grandymaker [24]
In a real system of levers, wheel or pulleys, the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) is less than the IMA (ideal mechanical advantage) because of the presence of friction.

In fact, the IMA and the AMA of a machine are defined as the ratio between the output force (the load) and the input force (the effort):
IMA= \frac{F_{out}}{F_{in}}
however, the difference is that the IMA does not take into account the presence of frictions, while the AMA does. As a result, the output force in the AMA is less than the output force in the IMA (because some energy is dissipated due to friction), and the AMA is less than the IMA.

How does the mass of an object affect the outcome when an unbalanced force acts on it?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be<em> balance force  </em>if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be<em> unbalanced force </em>if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to <em>Newton second law of motion </em>, acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

     F=ma

     a=\frac{F}{m}

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.

Hydroelectricity is the best answer.

This is an article by the EIA, but the pie graph is the most helpful: https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/?page=us_energy_home
