A great, helpful, useful definition of acceleration is
<em>A = (change in speed) / (time for the change)</em> . <== you should memorize this
This simple tool will directly solve all 3 problems.
The REASON for assigning these problems for homework is NOT to find the answers. It's to help YOU find out whether you know this definition, to let you go back and review it if you don't, and to give you a chance to practice using it if you do. Noticed that if you get the answers from somebody else, you lose all of these benefits.
The only wrinkle anywhere here is in #3, because when you use this definition, the unit of time has to be the same in both the numerator and the denominator.
So for #3, you have to EITHER change the km/hr to km/sec, OR change the 4sec to a fraction of an hour, before you plug anything into the definition.
The acceleration of body is given 16.3m/s2 and the force is given 4.6 N then
We know,
Force=mass*acceleration
Then,
Mass=force/acceleration
Mass=4.6/16.3
Mass=0.28kg

Answer:
D
Explanation:
The reproduction parts of the plant are in the flower and around it so this would eliminate the plants ablity to reproduce.
Answer:
a.
b.
c. 
d. The angular acceleration when sitting in the middle is larger.
Explanation:
a. The magnitude of the torque is given by 
, being r the radius, F the force aplied and 
the angle between the vector force and the vector radius. Since 
and so 
.
b. Since the relation 
hols, being I the moment of inertia, the angular acceleration can be calculated by 
. Since we have already calculated the torque, all left is calculate the moment of inertia. The moment of inertia of a solid disk rotating about an axis that passes through its center is 
, being M the mass of the disk. If we assume that a person has a punctual mass, the moment of inertia of a person would be given by 
, being 
the mass of the person and 
the distance from the person to the center. Given all of this, we have
.
c. Similar equation to b, but changing 
, so
.
d. The angular acceleration when sitting in the middle is larger because the moment of inertia of the person is smaller, meaning that the person has less inertia to rotate.
