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!!

One kind of slingshot consists of a pocket that holds a pebble and is whirled on a circle of radius r. The pebble is released fr
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

θ=142.9°

Explanation:

d=1 *r

angle ϕ= 37.1°

the line connecting pebble and target should be tangent to a circle so

cos(180-ϕ-θ)=\frac{r}{d}=\frac{1}{1}

∴ θ=180-ϕ-cos^{-1} (\frac{1}{1} )

  θ= 180-37.1-0

  θ=142.9°

A 2-kg box is pushed by a force of 4 N for 2 seconds. It has an initial velocity vo = 2 m/s to the right. NOTE: Since this probl
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Kf= 36 J

W(net) = 32 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 2 kg

F= 4 N

t= 2 s

Initial velocity ,u= 2 m/s

We know that rate of change of linear momentum is called force.

F= dP/dt

F.t = ΔP

ΔP = Pf - Pi

ΔP = m v  - m u

v= Final velocity

By putting the values

4 x 2 = 2 ( v - 2)

8 =  2 ( v - 2)

4 = v - 2

v= 6 m/s

The final kinetic energy Kf

Kf= 1/2 m v²

Kf= 0.5 x 2 x 6²

Kf= 36 J

Initial kinetic energy Ki

Ki = 1/2 m u²

Ki= 0.5 x 2 x 2²

Ki = 4 J

We know that net work is equal to the change in kinetic energy

W(net) = Kf - Ki

W(net) = 36 - 4

W(net) = 32 J

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low- mass sail and the ene
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

<em>d. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Let us take the momentum of a photon unit as u

we know that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force exerted.

For a absorbing surface, the photon is absorbed, therefore the final momentum is zero. From this we can say that

F = (u - 0)/t = u/t

for a unit time, the force is proportional to the momentum of the wave due to its energy density. Therefore,

F = u

For a reflecting surface, the momentum of the wave strikes the sail and changes direction. Since we know that the speed of light does not change, then the force is proportional to

F = (u - (-u))/t = 2u/t

just as the we did above, it becomes

F = 2u.

From this we can see that the force for a reflective sail is twice of that for an absorbing sail, and we know that the pressure is proportional to the force for a given area. From these, we conclude that <em>the sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.</em>
