Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2 \ Newtons}}

Explanation:

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

F= m \times a

The mass of the stone is 0.2 kilograms and the acceleration is 10.0 meters per square second.

  • m= 0.2 kg
  • a= 10.0 m/s²

Substitute the values into the formula.

F= 0.2 \ kg * 10.0 \ m/s^2

Multiply.

F=2 \ kg*m/s^2

Convert the units.

  • 1 kilogram meter per square second (kg*m/s²) is equal to 1 Newton (N)
  • Our answer of 2 kg*m/s² is equal to 2 N

F= 2 \ N

The force is <u>2 Newtons.</u>

A rocket's mass decreases as it burns fuel. the equation of motion for a rocket in vertical flight can be obtained from newton's
Talja [164]

<span>The equation of motion for a rocket in vertical flight can be obtained from newton’s second law of motion and is constant-mass system. The equation of motion for a body mass varies with time and mass. When force acts on rocket, the rocket will accelerate in the direction of force. Therefore, force is equal to the change in momentum per change in time. For constant mass, force equals mass times acceleration.</span>

Which of the following statement(s) is
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), a process known as rectification. Rectifiers have many uses including as components of power supplies and as amplitude modulation detectors (envelope detectors) of radio signals. Rectifiers are most commonly made using solid state diodes but other type of components can be used when very high voltages or currents are involved. When only a single diode is used to rectify AC (by blocking the negative or positive portion of the waveform), the difference between the term diode and the term rectifier is simply one of usage. The term rectifier describes a diode that is being used to convert AC to DC. Most rectifier circuits contain a number of diodes in a specific arrangement to more efficiently convert AC power to DC power than is possible with only a single diode.
