Answer:

t  = 7,8 s

Explanation:

From the instant, the rabbit passes the cat. The cat star running acceleration of 0,5 m/s² .

When the cat arrives at the speed of 3,9 m/s the cat catches the rabbit

Then for the cat arrives at 3,9 m/s nedds

v = vo + a*t     vo  = 0  then   v = a*t

3,9 ( m/s) = 0,5 ( m/s² ) * t

t  = 7,8 s

v  =  3,9 m/s =

according to newton's second law of motion of the net force acting on the object increases while the mass of the object remains
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The Acceleration will increase

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of motion: It states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes places along the direction of the force.

It can be expressed mathematically as,

F ∝ m(v-u)/t

Where (v-u)/t = a

F  = kma.

F = force, m = mass of the body, a = acceleration, k = constant of proportionality which tend to unity for a unit force, a unit mass, and a unit acceleration.

Therefore,

F = ma.

From the equation above,

If the net force acting on a body increase, while the mass of the body remains constant, the acceleration will also increase.

FIND THE WEIGHT OF A 80 KG MAN ON THE SURFACE OF MOON? WHAT SHOULD BE HISS MASS ON THE EARTH AND ON THE MOON? (ge = 9.8 m/s2 ; g
elena55 [62]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity at the place where the mass is) .

Man's mass = 80 kg

His weight on Earth = (80 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 784 newtons (about 176 pounds)

His weight on the Moon = (80 kg) x (1.63 m/s²) = <em>130.4 newtons</em> (about  29.2 pounds)

His mass is <em>80 kg</em>.  Mass is the thing about him that doesn't change. 
He has the same mass on the Earth, on the Moon, or anywhere.
