F = m*a
(Force) = (mass x acceleration)

1)     Plug the numbers into the corresponding variables using parentheses:

(225) = m*(2.3)

2)     Divide 2.3 on each side so that  the variable and the numbers are not separate sides 

225/2.3 = m* 2.3/2.3
97.83 = m

3)     Rewrite your answer.

The combined mass of Sharon and her skateboard is 97.83 kg. 
(Remember that kg or kilograms is the proper SI Unit for mass)\

Hope this helps!!

Based on Archimedes' principle, the greatest buoyant force an object can experience in water is determined by which quantity?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

B. The object's volume

Explanation:

When an object is immersed in a fluid, it experiences an upward force which is called buoyant force. The magnitude of the buoyant force is given by:

B=\rho_f V_{disp} g

where

\rho_f is the density of the fluid in which the object is immersed

V_{disp} is the volume of the fluid displaced by the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

When the object is totally immersed in the fluid, V_{disp} corresponds to the volume of the object; when the object is only partially immersed, V_{disp} corresponds only to the volume of the part of the object immersed.

From the formula, we see that the greatest buoyant force is experienced by the object when it is fully immersed. Moreover, we see that the buoyant force depends only on one property of the object: its volume. Therefore, the correct choice is

B. The object's volume

A space expedition discovers a planetary system consisting of a massive star and several spherical planets. The planets all have
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

T/√8

Explanation:

From Kepler's law, T² ∝ R³ where T = period of planet and R = radius of planet.

For planet A, period = T and radius = 2R.

For planet B, period = T' and radius = R.

So, T²/R³ = k

So, T²/(2R)³ = T'²/R³

T'² = T²R³/(2R)³

T'² = T²/8

T' = T/√8

So, the number of hours it takes Planet B to complete one revolution around the star is T/√8

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy
trapecia [35]
The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.
