Answer:

Explanation:

We will use the equation F - f = ma, which is a fancy way of stating Newton's 2nd Law.

F = +50.0,

f = -30.0,

m = 7.60 kg. Therefore:

50.0 - 30.0 = 7.60a and

20.0 = 7.60a and

a = 20.0/7.60 so

a = 2.63 m/s/s to the right

A 6.5 kg rock thrown down from a 120m high cliff with initial velocity 18 m/s down. Calculate
Olegator [25]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation. Which tells us that the energy of a body will always be the same regardless of where it is located. For this case we have two points, point A and point B. Point A is located at the top at 120 [m] and point B is in the middle of the cliff at 60 [m].

E_{A}=E_{B}

The important thing about this problem is to identify the types of energy at each point. Let's take the reference level of potential energy at a height of zero meters. That is, at this point the potential energy is zero.

So at point A we have potential energy and since a velocity of 18 [m/s] is printed, we additionally have kinetic energy.

E_{A}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}\\E_{A}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

At Point B the rock is still moving downward, therefore we have kinetic energy and since it is 60 [m] with respect to the reference level we have potential energy.

E_{B}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}

Therefore we will have the following equation:

(6.5*9.81*120)+(0.5*6.5*18^{2} )=(6.5*9.81*60)+(0.5*6.5*v_{B}^{2} )\\3.25*v_{B}^{2} =4878.9\\v_{B}=\sqrt{1501.2}\\v_{B}=38.75[m/s]

The kinetic energy can be easily calculated by means of the kinetic energy equation.

KE_{B}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v_{B}^{2}\\KE_{B}=0.5*6.5*(38.75)^{2}\\KE_{B}=4878.9[J]

In order to calculate the velocity at the bottom of the cliff where the reference level of potential energy (potential energy equal to zero) is located, we must pose the same equation, with the exception that at the new point there is only kinetic energy.

E_{A}=E_{C}\\6.5*9.81*120+(0.5*9.81*18^{2} )=0.5*6.5*v_{C}^{2} \\v_{c}^{2} =\sqrt{2843.39}\\v_{c}=53.32[m/s]

A 50kg meteorite moving at 1000 m/s strikes Earth. Assume the velocity is along the line joining Earth's center of mass and the
zysi [14]

As per the question, the mass of meteorite [ m]= 50 kg

                       The velocity of the meteorite [v] = 1000 m/s

When the meteorite falls on the ground, it will give whole of its kinetic energy to earth.

We are asked to calculate the gain in kinetic energy of earth.

The kinetic energy of meteorite is calculated as -

                                       Kinetic\ energy\ [K.E]\ =\frac{1}{2} mv^2

                                                             =\frac{1}{2}50kg*[1000\ m/s]^2

                                                               =\frac{1}{2}50* 10^{6}\ J

                                                               =25*10^6\ J    

Here, J stands for Joule which is the S.I unit of energy.

Hence,\ the\ kinetic\ energy\ gained\ by\ earth\ is\ 25*10^6\ J

In a pilot study to help train a group of data collectors who will evaluate childrens pain using a FACES rating scale, the resea
muminat

Answer:

Option c. Inter-rater Reliability

Explanation:

Here, the rating is done by a group of data collectors under training for evaluation children's pain on Faces scale which is a scale ranging from 0 to 10 with different expressions or faces with a happy face at 0 to a crying face at 10.

Also in Inter-rater Reliability, the relative consistency of a study or test is assessed and the extent to which different group members rated the same behavior, the consistency of which is evaluated.

Thus it can also be helpful in interviews, etc.

A carrot hangs from the ceiling by a rope,
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: Diagram B

Explanation:

A free body diagram shows the forces acting on an object in a certain scenario.

In this scenario there are two forces acting on the carrot: the Tension force (Ft) from the rope that the carrot is hanging from and Gravitational force(Fg) which is pulling the carrot to the Earth.

The diagram depicting this is diagram B.
