What is the mass of an object which has a force of 600 N acting on it and is travelling

Physics
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>The mass of the object is 40 Kg</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object is:

F = m.a

Where:

a = acceleration of the object.

m = mass of the object.

The mass can be calculated by solving for m:

\displaystyle m=\frac{F}{a}

The object has a net force of F=600 N acting on it and travels at a=15\ m/s^2, thus the mas is:

\displaystyle m=\frac{600}{15}

m = 40 Kg

The mass of the object is 40 Kg

A rock dropped down a well takes 1.8 s to hit the water. How far below the top of the well is the surface of the water
Brut [27]

Answer: 15.87 m

From the equation of motion:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where, s is the distance traveled, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

The rock free falls under gravity. Initial velocity, u=0 m/s, a=g=9.8m/s^2

It took t=1.8 s for rock to hit the water.

Substitute the values in the given equation:

\Rightarrow s=0+\frac{1}{2}9.8m/s^2\times(1.8s)^2=15.87 m

Hence, the water is 15.87 m below the top level of the well.

To study the properties of various particles, you can accelerate the particles with electric fields. A positron is a particle wi
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of positron is 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Speed of positron after 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s is 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

Given :

Constant electric field, E = 343 N/C

Mass of positron, m = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Charge of positron, q = +e = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

(a) Coulomb force on the positron is determine by the relation :

F = q x E    ....(1)

But, force is also equals to product of mass and acceleration. So,

F = ma  .....(2)

Here a is acceleration.

From equation (1) and (2).

m x a = q x E

a=\frac{qE}{m}

Substitute the values of q, E and m in the above equation.

a=\frac{1.6\times10^{-19}\times 343}{9.1\times10^{-31} }

a = 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Initially, the positron is at rest, so its initial speed is zero.

The equation of motion for positron is :

v = u + at

Here v is final speed, u is initial speed and t is time.

Since, u is zero, so the equation becomes :

v = at

Substitute 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s for t and 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s² for a in the above equation.

v = 6.03 x 10¹³ x 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ m/s

v = 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

The movement of Earth's lithosphere is caused by convection within the ___ layer of the earth.
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Mantle layer

Explanation:

The convection of the mantle layer is when energy in the form of heat is transferred from the interior of the earth to the top of the planet, creating convection currents.

This convection in the mantle causes movements in the earth's tectonic plates, which are found in the lithosphere, so the <u>movement of Eath's lithosphere is caused by convection within the mantle layer on the earth</u>. This plate movements can cause earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
