Hi there! :)

\large\boxed{v_{f} = 18 m/s}

Use the following kinematic equation to solve for the final velocity:

v_{f} = v_{i} + at

In this instance, the runner started from rest, so the initial velocity is 0 m/s. We can rewrite the equation as:

v_{f} = at

Plug in the given acceleration and time:

v_{f} = 4.5 * 4 = 18 m/s

Which of the following objects is in static equilibrium?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

b- a bicycle sitting on the ground

Explanation:

'Static' means it's not moving.

So, only the answer listed as "a bicycle sitting on the ground" corresponds to that condition.

All others possible answers describe something that is moving (an apple falling, a motorcycle accelerating, a car moving at a constant speed).  Even if they are going at a constant speed, they are moving, so not static.

A tungsten wire has resistance R at 20°C. A second tungsten wire at 20°C has twice the length and half the cross-sectional area
Bad White [126]
The resistance is 4 times the resistance of the first wire. the formula is R = p*l/A with p being resistivity, l length and A area. So if you double length and half area, which botv result in more resistance, you get p*2/0.5 or 4 (p can be abandoned because it is the same. We take standard length and area as 1)

A force F acts in the forward direction on a cart of mass m. A friction force ff opposes this motion. Part A Use Newton's second
stellarik [79]

Answer:

a = F-ff/m

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion which states that "the rate of change in momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force F and acts in the direction of the force.

Mathematically;

F = ma

Since two forces acts on the cart i.e the moving force F and the frictional force Ff , we will take the sum of the forces.

∑F = ma where

m is the mass of the cart

a is its acceleration

∑F = F+(-ff )(since frictional force is an opposing force)

F - ff = ma

Dividing both sides by mass m

a = F-ff/m

According to universal gravitation, both mass and air resistance affect the gravitational attraction between objects
Ksju [112]
Air resistance doesn't appear in the formula for gravitational force, because it doesn't affect it. Mass does because it does.
