Answer:

-20,000N

Explanation:

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

So,

Force = 2000 x -10

= -20,000N (Newtons)

A horizontal force of 200 N is applied to move a 55 kg television set across a 10 m level surface. What is the work done by the
vivado [14]

Answer:

The work done is "2000 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 200 N

Mass,

m = 55 kg

Displacement,

d = 10 m

Now,

The work done will be:

⇒  Work \ done= Force\times displacement

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒                     =200\times 10

⇒                     =2000 \ J

A laser beam is incident on two slits with a separation of 0.195 mm, and a screen is placed 5.30 m from the slits. If the bright
kumpel [21]

Answer:

λ = 596 nm.

Explanation:

Fringe width = λ D / d

λ is wave length , D is screen distance and d is slit separation.

Putting the values

1.62 x 10⁻² =(  λ x 5.3 ) / .195 x 10⁻³

\lambda=\frac{1.62\times10^{-2}\times195\times10^{-6}}{5.3}

λ = 596 nm.

4. A 1200 kg car traveling North at 20.0 m/s collides with a 1400 kg car traveling South at 22.0 m/s. The two
Dvinal [7]

Answer:-2.61 m/s

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle, which establishes that the initial momentum p_{o} must be equal to the final momentum p_{f}:

p_{o}=p_{f} (1)

Where:

p_{o}=mV_{o}+MU_{o} (2)

p_{f}=(m+M)V_{f} (3)

m=1200 kg is the mass of the first car

V_{o}=20 m/s is the velocity of the first car, to the North

M=1400 kg is the mass of the second car

U_{o}=-22 m/s is the mass of the second car, to the South

V_{f} is the final velocity of both cars after the collision

mV_{o}+MU_{o}=(m+M)V_{f} (4)

Isolating V_{f}:

V_{f}=\frac{mV_{o}+MU_{o}}{m+M} (5)

V_{f}=\frac{(1200 kg)(20 m/s)+(1400 kg)(-22 m/s)}{1200 kg+1400 kg} (6)

Finally:

V_{f}=-2.61 m/s (7) This is the resulting velocity of the wreckage, to the south

Which of these items are made of cells? Check all that apply.
Katen [24]

Answer:

The correct answers are: Bacteria, Horses, Humans and Mushrooms.

Explanation:

All living organisms are made up of cells. A cell is a microscopic atomic unit and is made up of cytoplasm, one or more nuclei, and a membrane.

They are divided into eukaryotic cells (with nucleus) and prokaryotic cells (they do not have a nucleus).

Depending on the number of cells that living organisms have, they can be classified as single-celled organisms, which are made up of one cell. For example bacteria.

Or they can be multicellular organisms, formed by two or more cells, for example horses.

The Earth is constantly spinning on its axis, like you might spin a basketball on your finger. It is this spinning of the Earth
mash [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

The spinning of the earth around its own axis causes day and night.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Earth has two types of motions. It spins around its own axis causing day and night every 12 hours and completes a rotation in 23.93 hours that make a full day. The part of the earth that faces sunlight during spinning experiences day and the other part has night.  It also rotates around the sun and completes one rotation in 365 days that makes a year.
