<span>7.7 m/s First, determine the acceleration you subject the sled to. You have a mass of 15 kg being subjected to a force of 180 N, so 180 N / 15 kg = 180 (kg m)/s^2 / 15 kg = 12 m/s^2 Now determine how long you pushed it. For constant acceleration the equation is d = 0.5 A T^2 Substitute the known values getting, 2.5 m = 0.5 12 m/s^2 T^2 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 Solve for T 2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2 0.41667 s^2 = T^2 0.645497224 s = T Now to get the velocity, multiply the time by the acceleration, giving 0.645497224 s * 12 m/s^2 = 7.745966692 m/s After rounding to 2 significant figures, you get 7.7 m/s</span>

Using Newton's Second Law, can you explain why one of the major advancements in spaceflight was the development of strong cerami
katovenus [111]

Answer:

high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces

Heavy metals are toxic to humans,

the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic

Explanation:

The selection of materials for the construction of rockets takes into account many aspects, the technical resistance to the demands of space travel, but also the abundance of the material. Heavy metals have two very serious problems. The first one, some of them are a little scarce in nature, but the most serious problem is that almost all of them are toxic to humans, for example: lead and mercury.

On the other hand, the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic to living beings.

If we use Newton's second law

          F = m a

let's use the concept of density

         rho = m / V

        m = rho V

let's substitute

         F = rho V a

From this expression we see that a material with high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces, such as those existing in spacecraft clearance and re-entry to Earth.

Unfortunately with this law there is no criterion to select a material unless its density is high, in addition to this criterion low toxicity criteria for human beings are used,

An eight-turn coil encloses an elliptical area having a major axis of 40.0 cm and a minor axis of 30.0 cm. The coil lies in the
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

9.25 x 10^-4 Nm

Explanation:

number of turns, N = 8

major axis = 40 cm

semi major axis, a = 20 cm = 0.2 m

minor axis = 30 cm

semi minor axis, b = 15 cm = 0.15 m

current, i = 6.2 A

Magnetic field, B = 1.98 x 10^-4 T

Angle between the normal and the magnetic field is 90°.

Torque is given by

τ = N i A B SinФ

Where, A be the area of the coil.

Area of ellipse, A = π ab = 3.14 x 0.20 x 0.15 = 0.0942 m²

τ = 8 x 6.20 x 0.0942 x 1.98 x 10^-4 x Sin 90°

τ = 9.25 x 10^-4 Nm

thus, the torque is 9.25 x 10^-4 Nm.

A light ray travels in the +x direction and strikes a slanted surface with an angle of 62° between its normal and the ty axis. T
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

- 0.6

Explanation:

Given that angle between normal y axis is 62° so angle between  normal

and x axis will be 90- 62 = 28 °. Since incident ray is along x axis , 28 ° will be the angle between incident ray and normal ie it will be angle of incidence

Angle of incidence = 28 °

angle of reflection = 28°

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray = 28 + 28 = 56 °

Angle between x axis and reflected ray = 56 °

x component of reflected ray

= - cos 56 ( it will be towards - ve x axis. )
