The resultant force on the object is

∑ F = 〈0, 8〉 N + 〈6, 0〉 N = 〈6, 8〉 N

which has a magnitude of

F = √((6 N)² + (8 N)²) = √(100 N²) = 10 N

By Newton's second law, the acceleration has magnitude a such that

F = m a

10 N = (2 kg) a

a = (10 N) / (2 kg)

a = 5 m/s²

so the answer is B.

An experiment is performed to test the effect of three different types of water on the growth of a plant. The test is done by us

natima [27]

I think the correct answer would be D. The tap water in the experiment is one the three test conditions of the independent variable, the type of water. The independent variable in a experiment is the one being manipulated or the one being changed. In this case, it is the type of water.

Oscilloscope amplitude and frequency problem. Study the above graph. The volts/div dial is set to 2 volts/div and the time/div d

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Amplitude = 8 Volts

Frequency = 0.067 kHz

Explanation:

Note: The missing picture in question is attached for your review.

Given:

Volts/Div = 2 V/div

Time/Div = 5 msec/div

Finding Amplitude:

Now, as you can see in the attached picture, there are 4 division between two peaks of the waveform, so,

$Amplitude = 4 div/volts * 2 volts/ div )\\Amplitude = 8 Volts$

(Multiplying by 2 V/div because oscilloscope dial is set at 2 V/div)

Finding Frequency:

As can be seen in attached picture, 3 division are there for one complete cycle of waveform,so,

$Time Period = 3 div * 5msec /div\\Time Perod = 15 msec$

Since,

$Frequency = \frac{1}{Time Period}\\Frequency = \frac{1}{15m}\\Frequency = 0.067 kHz$

An imaginary line perpendicular to a reflecting surface is called ____refrac_____.

umka2103 [35]

Not totally sure but i would say a normal? its not refraction or incidence if its perpendicular and i dont think its a mirror if its an imaginary line so yeah normal (normals are always perpendicular to their surface too i think so)

An auditorium measures 43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m. The density of air is 1.20 kg/m3. What is the volume of the room in cubic feet? (D

frez [133]

The question here would be what is the volume of the room. The density of air that is given has no use. We simply multiply the dimensions given of the room to determine the volume.

43.0m × 18.0m × 15.0m = 11610m^3 ( 3.28 ft / 1 m)^3 = 4.09 x 10^5 ft^3
