Gravity<span> is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects. At Earth's surface the acceleration of </span>gravity<span> is about 9.8 metres (32 feet) per second per second.</span>
Answer:
Shawn's speed relative to Susan's speed = 10 mph
Resultant velocity = 82.32 mph
Explanation:
The given data :-
i) Susan driving in north and speed of Susan is ( v₁ ) = 53 mph.
ii) Shawn driving in east and speed of Shawn is ( v₂ ) = 63 mph.
iii) The speed of both Susan and Shawn is relative to earth.
iv) The angle between Susan in north and Shawn in east is 90°.
We have to find Shawn's speed relative to Susan's speed.
v₂₁ = v₂ - v₁ = 63 - 53 = 10 mph
Resultant velocity,
v = 82.32 mph
Answer:
the magnitude of acceleration will be 1.50m/s^2
Explanation:
To calculate your acceleration, you can use your formula that states that the net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object. Fnet=ma
if you draw out this situation and label the forces you will have your vector towards the right with a magnitude of 20.0N and then your friction vector will be pointing to the left (in other words, in the negative direction) (opposing the direction of movement) with a magnitude of 5.00N, with the 10.0 kg box in the middle.
The net force will be calculated using F1+F2=Fnet where your F1=20.0N and F2= -5.00N (since it is towards the negative direction).
you will find that Fnet=15.0N
With that, plug in the values you know to calculate the acceleration of the block:
Fnet=ma
(15.0N)=(10.0kg)a from her you can divide both sides by 10 to isolate a:
1.50=a (and now make sure to label the units of your answer)
a=1.50m/s^2 (which is the typical unit for acceleration)
In Physics, 'work' has a very clear definition:
It's (strength of a force) times (distance through which the force acts).
'Work' has the units of Energy.
If you push against a shopping cart with 30 newtons of force, and
you keep pushing while the cart moves 4 meters, then you have
done (30 x 4) = 120 newton-meters of work = 120 "Joules".
