For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the objects acceleration. When a force of 35 N acts on

a certain object, the acceleration of the object is 5 m/s^2. If the force is changed to 21 N, what will be the acceleration of the object?

<h3>Answer:  3 m/s^2</h3>

=======================================================

According to Newton's Second Law, we know that

F = m*a

where F is the force applied, m is the mass and 'a' is the acceleration.

We see that this is a direct variation equation for F and a, such that m is the constant of variation. It's similar to how y = kx is also a direct variation equation.

Plug in F = 35 and a = 5 to find m

F = ma

35 = m*5

35/5 = m

7 = m

m = 7

The object has a mass of 7 kg

Our equation F = ma updates to F = 7a

Now plug in the force F = 21 to find 'a'

F = 7a

21 = 7a

21/7 = a

3 = a

a = 3

The acceleration will be 3 m/s^2

Notice how a smaller force applied means that the acceleration has also gone down as well.

What is the value of 6(2b-4) when b=5.​
trapecia [35]
<h3><u>3</u><u>6</u> is the answer.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Put value of b as given and using BODMAS rule,

6(2b - 4)

=  > 6((2 \times 5)-4)

=  > 6(10 - 4)

=  > 6 \times 6

=  > 36

Henve, value of of the given expression is 36

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

x ≈ 28.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin x = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{3.9}{8.1} , then

x = sin^{-1} (\frac{3.9}{8.1} ) ≈ 28.8° ( to the nearest tenth )
