Answer:

-20,000N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s²)

So,

Force = 2000 x -10

= -20,000N (Newtons)

What is the average velocity of the object from t=1s to t= 3 s?

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since this is a distance v time graph, the slope of the line from 1s to 3s is the velocity. However, it looks like, at t=3, the velocity is 0, so getting the definite velocity is not going to happen. We can estimate it as closely as possible. Since the line is tending from the upper left to the lower right, the slope is negative, so the velocity is also negative. That leaves only C or D as our answers. And the slope is closer to -1 than to -5, so choice D. is the one you want.

Definition of continental polar

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA) air masses are cold, dry, and stable. These air masses originate over northern Canada and Alaska as a result of radiational cooling. Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable.

A 6.72 particle moves through a region of space where an electric field of magnitude 1270 N/C points in the positive direction,

Romashka [77]

Answer:

$v_{y} = -104 m/s$

Explanation:

Using:

Force = electric field * charge

$F=e*q$

Force = magnitude of charge * velocity * magnetic field * sin tither

$F_{x2}= |q|*v*B*sin \alpha$

Force on particle due to electric field:

$F_{x1}= E*q = (1270N/C)*(-6.72*10^{-6} ) = -8.53*10^{-3}$

Force on particle due to magnetic field:

$F_{x2}= |q|*v*B*sin \alpha = (6.72*10^{-6} )*(1.15)*(sin90)*v = (7.728*10^{-6})*(v)$

$F_{x2}$ is in the positive x direction as $F_{x1}$ is in the negative x direction while net force is in the positive x direction.

Magnetic field is in the positive Z direction, net force is in the positive x direction.

According to right hand rule, Force acting on particle is perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field and velocity of particle. This would mean the force is along the y-axis. As this is a negatively charged particle, the direction of the velocity of the particle is reversed. Therefore velocity of particle, v, has to be in the negative y direction.

Now,

$F_{xnet}- F_{x1 } = F_{x2 }$
