Represent 7468 N with SI units having an appropriate prefix. Express your answer to four significant figures and include the app

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

7.468 kN

Explanation:

Here the force is given in Newton

Some of the prefixes of the SI units are

kilo = 10³

Mega = 10⁶

Giga = 10⁹

Tera = 10¹²

The number is 7468.0

Here, the only solution where the number of significant figures is kilo. If any other prefix is chosen then the significant figures will increase.

1 kilonewton = 1000 Newton

$1\ Newton=\frac{1}{1000}\ kilonewton$

$\\\Rightarrow 7468\ Newton=\frac{7468}{1000}\ kilonewton\\ =7.468\ kilonewton$

So, 7468 N = 7.468 kN

Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the

balandron [24]

Answer:

a) Δx = 11.6 m

b) t = 3.9 s

Explanation:

Since the snowmobile is moving at constant speed, and the drive force is 195 N, this means that thereis another force equal and opposite acting on it, according to Newton's 2nd Law, due to there is no acceleration present in the horizontal direction .
This force is just the force of kinetic friction, and is equal to -195 N (assuming the positive direction as the direction of the movement).
Once the drive force is shut off, the only force acting on the snowmobile remains the friction force.
According Newton's 2nd Law, this force is causing a negative acceleration (actually slowing down the snowmobile) that can be found as follows:

$a = \frac{F_{fr} }{m} = \frac{-195N}{128kg} = -1.5 m/s2 (1)$

Assuming the friction force keeps constant, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the distance traveled under this acceleration before coming to an stop, as follows:

$v_{f} ^{2} -v_{o} ^{2} = 2* a* \Delta x (2)$

Taking into account that vf=0, replacing by the given (v₀) and a from (1), we can solve for Δx, as follows:

$\Delta x =- \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} =- \frac{(5.90m/s)^{2}}{2*(-1.5m/s2)} = 11.6 m (3)$

We can find the time needed to come to an stop, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:

$v_{f} = v_{o} + a*\Delta t (4)$

Since we have already said that the snowmobile comes to an stop, this means that vf = 0.
Replacing a and v₀ as we did in (3), we can solve for Δt as follows:

$\Delta t = \frac{-v_{o} }{a} = \frac{-5.9m/s}{-1.5m/s2} = 3.9 s (5)$

Take another look at lines 2 and 3. Suppose you use distance and time between any pair of neighboring dots to calculate speed:

Nataly [62]

Answer:

Add the two speeds together.

Then, divide the sum by two. This will give you the average speed for the entire trip. So, if Ben traveled 40 mph for 2 hours, then 60 mph for another 2 hours, his average speed is 50 mph.

Every football field has two 300kg field goal posts separated by 110m of football field (that includes the endzones). What is th

Mama L [17]

Answer:

4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass 1 (M1) = 300 Kg

Mass 2 (M2) = 300 Kg

Separating distance (r) = 110 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Gravitational force (F) =?

The gravitational force between the two goal posts can be obtained as follow:

F = GM1M2 / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 300 × 300 / 110²

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ / 12100

F = 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Therefore the gravitational force between the two goal posts is 4.96×10¯¹⁰ N

Rashid [163]

Answer:

M= F^n / a+g

Explanation:

This shows correctly Newton’s second law, where sum of forces is divided by mass is equal to acceleration. Also mass can’t be negative so F^n is positive.
