Two blocks joined by a string have masses of 6 and 9 kg. They rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A 2nd string, attached

only to the 9 kg block, has horizontal force = 30 N applied to it. Both blocks accelerate. Find the tension in the string between the blocks. a. 18 N b. 28 N c. 12 N d. 15 N

Answer:

12N

Explanation:

Suppose the string mass is negligible, the total mass of the 2 block system is 6 + 9 = 15 kg

So the acceleration of the system when subjected to 30N force is

a = F / M = 30 / 15 = 2 m/s2

So both blocks would have the same acceleration, however, the force acting on the 6kg block would have a magnitude of

f = am = 2 * 6 = 12N

This is the tension in the string between the blocks

explain why a high-speed collision between two cars would cause more damage than a low-speed collision between the same two cars
9966 [12]
The force equation can easily prove this.  F=ma.  This states that the force on an object is equal to mass times acceleration.  If the mass stays the same and the velocity of the cars increases than that means there is a larger force.  This is because in both cases the cars are stopping in almost an instant and the times of the crashes are theoretically identical.  Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.  If the velocity is higher with the same amount of time than that means there is a higher acceleration.  If you plug a higher acceleration into the force equation then you wind up with a higher force and in turn a more damaging collision.

Can someone help me with this please?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

C2, C1, C4, C5 and C6 are in parallel. Therefore, we use the formula Cp = C1 + C2 + ....

Cp = C2 + C1 + C4 + C5 + C6 = ( 7 * 10 ^-3) + (18 * 10^-6) + (0.8F) + (200 * 10^-3 F) + (750 * 10^-6) = 1.008F

Now, Cp will become one capacitor and it will be aligned with C3, therefore it will now become a circuit in series.

We use the formula: 1/Cs = 1/C1 + 1/C2 + .... + ....1/Cn

Thus,

1/Cs = 1/C3 + 1/Cp

1/Cs = 1/(14 * 10^-3 F) + 1/(1.008F)

Cs = 1.4 * 10 ^-2 or if we do not round too much it will give exactly 0.0138 F

So the answer should be a)

How do magnetic forces repel or attract?
Lerok [7]

“Magnets are surrounded by an invisible magnetic field that is made by the movement of electrons, the subatomic particles that circle the nucleus of an atom”



“Every magnet has both a north and a south pole. When you place the north pole of one magnet near the south pole of another magnet, they are attracted to one another. When you place like poles of two magnets near each other (north to north or south to south), they will repel each other.”

Please help!How is constant or uniform acceleration used to explain free fall?
garik1379 [7]
Free fall is a special case of motion with constant acceleration, because acceleration due to gravity is always constant and downward. For example, when a ball is thrown up in the air, the ball's velocity is initially upward.
