Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

-- during the first second, the object increases its speed to

(5 m/s²) · (1 s) = 5 m/s .

-- During the next 2 seconds, the object increases its speed by

(2 m/s²) · ( s) = 4 m/s

So at the end of the whole 3 seconds, its speed is (5 m/s) + (4 m/s) = 9 m/s

-- Over the whole time, its speed has changed from zero to 9 m/s.

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Acceleration = (9 m/s) / (3 sec)

<em>Acceleration = 3 m/s²</em>

The work output of a machine can never be less than
Dominik [7]
The work output of a machine can be anything, depending on the friction
and other losses internal to the machine. But it can never be MORE than
the work <u>input</u>.

I suppose you might say that the work output can never be less than zero,
because there's no such thing as negative energy.

Compare the magnitude of the electromagnetic and gravitational force between two electrons separated by a distance of 2.00 m. As
Lesechka [4]
First you need to know about two laws, which are:
1) Coulomb's law
2) Newton's law of gravitation

1.
According to Coulomb's law, Electric force between TWO charges is:
F_{e} =  \frac{k*q_{1}*q_{2}}{r^{2}} -- (A)

Where, k = 1/(4*π*epsilon_not) = 9 * 10^{9} \frac{Nm^{2}}{C^{2}}

Both q_{1} and q_{2} = -1.61 x 10^{-19} C
r = Distance between the two charges = 2.00m

Plug-in the above values in (A), you would get:

F_{e} = (9 * 10^{9} ) (1.61 * 10^{-19}  * 1.61 * 10^{-19}) / (2*2)  

F_{e} = 5.83* 10^{-29} N

2.
According to Newton's law of gravitation:
F_{g} =  \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}} -- (B)

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.674 * 10^{-11} m^{2} kg^{-1}s^{-2}

m1 = m2 = Mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10^{-31} kg
r = 2.0 m

Plug-in the above values in (B), you would get:

F_{g} = (6.674 * 10^{-11}) ( 9.11 * 10^{-31}  *  9.11 * 10^{-31}}[/tex]) / (2*2)  

F_{e} = 5.83* 10^{-29} N

F_{e} = 1.38 * 10^{-71} N

Now do Fe over Fg, you would get:
\frac{F_{e}}{F{g}}  = 4.23 * 10^{42}

Ans: So the blanks are:
1) 5.82
2) 1.38
3) 4.23

Setler [38]

Answer:

5.A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics. This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

6.The Nazca plate is an oceanic plate, while the South American plate is continental. The fast moving Nazca plate is moving east towards the South American plate at a downward angle and converging. This process is called subduction, resulting in frequent earthquakes & production of the Andes Mountains.

7.The Nazca plate forms the southeastern part of the Pacific plate. The Nazca and the Pacific plate share both divergent and transform type of plate boundary. The Pacific and the Nazca plate are separating at an increasing rate of about 122-142mm/year.

8.Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.
