Which has a higher acceleration: a 10 kg object acted upon with a net force of 20 N or an 18 kg object acted on by a net force o

Bingel [31]3 years ago

When a force F is acting on an object of mass m, the acceleration of the object is (Newton's second law)
a= \frac{F}{m}
The first object has a mass of 10 kg and a force of 20 N is acting on it, so its acceleration is
a_1= \frac{20 N}{10 kg}=2 m/s^2
The second object has a mass of 18 kg and a force of 30 N is acting on it, so its acceleration is
a_2= \frac{30 N}{18 kg}=1.67 m/s^2
So, the first object has higher acceleration.

Suppose a 20-foot ladder is leaning against a building, reaching to the bottom of a second-floor window 15 feet above the ground
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The answer is β=0,85 rads

Explanation:

As the ladder is leaning against the building, we can imagine there´s a triangle where 20ft is the hypotenuse and 15ft is the maximum vertical distance between the ladder and the ground, it means, the leg opposite to β which is the angle we need

Let β(betha) be the angle between the ladder and the ground

We also know that sin(betha)=(leg opposite)/(hypotenuse)

In this case we will need to find β, this way:

betha=sin^-1((15ft/20ft))

Then β=48,6°  

We also have that 2πrads is equal to 360°, in this way we find how much β is in radians:

betha=(48,6°)*(2pirads/360°)

then we find β=0,85rads

From the concepts you have learned in this module, how are you going to assess
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

Earth is properly designed to support life. This is seen in the favorable temperature that supports life, the water cycle that recycles water for plant and animal life, the atmosphere, energy, and nutrients.

1. Temperature: The temperature which is regulated by the different weather conditions such as the rains, snows, dry seasons all help to maintain a stable condition for life.

2. Water: The water cycle through processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, helps to ensure that there is never a lack of water in the earth. The numerous water bodies like the seas, oceans, rivers, lakes, also provide a habitat for some living things. Water makes up 70% of the earth.

3. Atmosphere: The atmosphere is a mixture of gases in the right proportions that are necessary for life. Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon, etc are released and inhaled by man and other living things. They are also involved in so many biochemical reactions that help in metabolism and catabolism.

4. Energy: Energy generated from the sun and within the earth is stored in various forms and is always conserved. This energy is converted to different states such as the potential, chemical, kinetic, mechanical forms to get work done and to release heat.

5. Nutrients​: Though cycles such as the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorous cycles, the earth maintains its stock of essential nutrients that help to sustain life.

Which is the best example of Newton's First Law of Motion? A small, lightweight ball and a large, heavy ball are dropped off the
Marizza181 [45]
I believe the best example of Newton's First Law of motion would be the example or illustration with the basketball player. An object will move in a straight line or a given direction at a constant speed unless or until another force acts upon the object, causing a change in speed and or direction.
