Answer:

a = 8 m/s²

Explanation:

Given: 5 kg, 40N    

To find: Acceleration (a)    

Solution: To find acceleration (a), divide the force by the weight  

A = F ÷ m

=  40 ÷  5  

= 8 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.

A ball dropping from 70 cm took 0.6 seconds to travel a horizontal distance of 34 cm.
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

vₓ = 0.566 m / s,   W_total = 9.1 J

Explanation:

This exercise is a parabolic type movement, for the x axis where there is no acceleration

         x = v t

         vₓ = x / t

         vₓ = 0.34 / 0.6

         vₓ = 0.566 m / s

the work done is

X axis

In this axis there is no acceleration, therefore the sum of the forces is zero and since the work is the force times the distance, we conclude that the lock in this axis is zero.

        W₁ = 0

Y axis  

in this axis the force that exists is the force of gravity, that is, the weight of the body

         W₂ = Fy y

         W₂ = mg and

          W₂ = m 9.8 0.70

          W₂ = m 9.1

the work is a scalar for which we have to add the quantities obtained

          W_total = W₁ + W₂

          W_total = 0 + 9.1 m

           W_total = 9.1 m

In order to complete the calculation, the mass of the body is needed if we assume that the mass is m = 1

           W_total = 9.1 J

What is the longest wavelength of radiation that possesses the necessary energy to break the bond 941?
Anna71 [15]
<span>Energy is calculated by molecule dividing energy by mole by Avogadro's number (6.022*10^23) 941kJ=9.41*10^5 J so energy by molecule E= 9.41*10^5/6.022*10^23=1.563*10^-18 J Wavelength (w) given by E=hc/w where, E = energy h = planks constant (6.6262 x 10-34 J·s) c = speed of light (3 x 10^8 m/s ) So, w= hc/E = (6.6262*10^-34)*(3*10^8) /1.563*10^-18 = 127.2 Nm Longest wavelength of radiation =127.2 Nm</span>

A 2-kg rock is thrown vertically upward at a speed of 3.2 m/s from the surface of the moon. If it returns to its starting point
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

1.6 m/s2

Explanation:

Let g_m be the gravitational acceleration of the moon. We know that due to the law of energy conservation, kinetic energy (and speed) of the rock when being thrown upwards from the surface and when it returns to the surface is the same. Given that g_m stays constant, we can conclude that the time it takes to reach its highest point, aka 0 velocity, is the same as the time it takes to fall down from that point to the surface, which is half of the total time, or 4 / 2 = 2 seconds.

So essentially it takes 2s to decelerate from 3.2 m/s to 0. We can use this information to calculate g_m

g_m = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{0 - 3.2}{2} = \frac{-3.2}{2} = -1.6 m/s^2

So the gravitational acceleration on the Moon is 1.6 m/s2

The spaceship Enterprise 1 is moving directly away from earth at a velocity that an earth-based observer measures to be 0.62c. A
podryga [215]

Answer:

The answer is "0.92 c"

Explanation:

v_1\ (earth) = 0.62 \ c \\\\v_2\ ( enterprise ) = -0.30

so,

v_2 \ (earth) = 0.62 \ c - (-0.30 \ c)  \\\\

               =  0.62 \ c +0.30 \ c\\\\= 0.92 \  c
