Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma

4.45g - 2.75g = (4.45 + 2.75)a

a = 9.81(4.45 - 2.75) / (4.45 + 2.75) = 2.31625 ≈ 2.32 m/s²

a)

T = 2.75(9.81 + 2.32) = 33.3 N

or

T = 4.45(9.81 - 2.32) = 33.3 N

b) 2.32 m/s² upward for 2.75 kg mass

    2.32 m/s² downward for 4.45 kg mass

c) y = ½at² = ½(2.31625/3)1² = 1.158125 ≈ 1.16 m

If R is the total resistance for a parallel circuit with two resistors of resistance r1 and r2, then . Find the resistance, r1,
Goshia [24]
For a parallel circuit with two resistors, the total resistance is calculated from the expression:

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2

We are given the total resistance, R, which is 20 ohms and R2 which is 75 ohms. We calculate R1 as follows:

1/20 = 1/R1 + 1/75
1/R1 = 11/300
R1 = 27.27 ohms

If both mass and speed are doubled, what happens to its momentum?
puteri [66]

The general formula is:      Momentum = (mass) x (speed)

I never like to just write a bunch of algebra without explaining it.
But in this particular case, there's really not much to say, and
I think the algebra will pretty well explain itself.  I hope so:


Original momentum = (original mass) x (original speed)


New momentum = (2 x original mass) x (2 x original speed)

                           = (2) x (original mass) x (2) x (original speed)

                           = (2) x (2) x (original mass) x (original speed)

                           =  (4) x (original mass) x (original speed)

                           =  (4) x (original momentum).

A driver of a car enters a new 110 km/h speed zone on the highway. The driver begins to accelerate immediately and reaches 110 k
levacccp [35]

Answer:

30Km/h

Explanation:

acceleration is the change of speed in a given time so when we substract the accelerations we can know how much the car goes per an hour

Describe free fall and weightlessness ?<br>​
yaroslaw [1]

weightlessness is the complete or near complete absense of the sensation of weight.

when in freefall,the only force acting upon your body is the force of gravity a noun contact force.since the gravity cannot be felt without any other opposing forces,you would have no sensation of it.you would feel weightless when in a state of freefall.
