If an object's mass is decreasing while a constant force is applied to the object, would its acceleration decrease, increase, or

remain the same?
Physics

Arlecino [84]4 years ago

Answer:

With the decreasing object mass, the acceleration will also decrease.

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion infers the relation between force F, acceleration a and mass m of a body. It is expressed as:

F = ma

When force is constant, we get m α 1/a, that is mass is inversely proportional to the acceleration of the body.

Hence when object's mass decreases, the acceleration will increase. and vice versa

Answer:

a) 72.54°  and  It will take the woman 33.4m

Explanation:

The woman runs with a constant speed V1 = 6m/s

V2 = 20m/s

V1 = V2 cos θ

Cos θ= V1/V2= 6/20

Cos θ= 0.3

Cos^-1 0.3=72.54°

Using Range formular for projectile

R= (V2 Cos θ)/g (V2 Sin θ)^2 +sqrt(V2 Sin θ)^2 + 2gh)

R= (20cos72.54)(2Sin72.54+sqrt(20Sin72.54)^2 + 2×9.8×45

R=33.4m

MrRa [10]
Convection can best be observed as she blows the warm steam air that rises.

As the warm steam rises,  she forces displaces it with cool air from her mouth. Because the warm steam is less dense it rises and because the cool air is more dense, it displaces the warm air.

This scenario is an example of convection.
