A net force of 24 N is acting on a 4.0-kg object. Find the acceleration in m/s2.

Inessa [10]

Hi there!

We can use Newton's Second Law:
$\Sigma F = ma$

ΣF = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)

We can rearrange the equation to solve for the acceleration.

$a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m}\\\\a = \frac{24}{4} = \boxed{6 \frac{m}{s^2}}$

Help me find the acceleration

ANEK [815]

a = 3.09 m/s²

<h3>Explanation</h3>

This question doesn't tell anything about how long it took for the car to go through 105 meters. As a result, the timeless suvat equation is likely what you need for this question.

In the timeless suvat equation,

$a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2}{2\; x}$

where

$a$ is the acceleration of the car;
$v$ is the final velocity of the car;
$u$ is the initial velocity of the car; and
$x$ is the displacement of the car.

Note that v and u are velocities. Make sure that you include their signs in the calculation.

In this question,

$a$ is the unknown;
$v = -10.9 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ;
$u = -27.7 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ; and
$x = - 105 \; \text{m}$ .

Apply the timeless suvat equation:

$a = \dfrac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2\; x}\\\phantom{a} = \dfrac{(-10.9)^{2} - (-27.7)^{2}}{2 \times (-105)}\\\phantom{a} = 3.09 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ .

The value of $a$ is greater than zero, which is reasonable. Velocity of the car is negative, meaning that the car is moving backward. The car now moves to the back at a slower speed. Effectively it accelerates to the front. Its acceleration shall thus be positive.

A boy throws a ball of mass 0.22 kg straight upward with an initial speed of 29 m/s. When the ball returns to the boy, its speed

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The work is -67.76 J

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy is considered one of one of the fundamental laws of physics and states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant. except when it is transformed into other types of energy.

This is summed up in the principle that energy can neither be created nor destroyed in the universe, only transformed into other forms of energy.

In this case you must calculate the loss of kinetic energy. This loss is actually the work done against the resistive force in the air. Friction is the only force other than gravity that acts on the ball.

So, the loss of kinetic energy is $\frac{1}{2} *m*(vf^{2} -vi^{2} )$

You know:

mass=m=0.22 kg
Initial velocity of the ball: $vi= 29 \frac{m}{s}$

Final velocity of the ball: $vf= 15 \frac{m}{s}$

Replacing:

$\frac{1}{2} *0.22 kg*(15^{2} -29^{2} )$ = -67.76 J

Friction work is always negative because friction is always against displacement.

The work is -67.76 J

What part of the plant transports water from the roots to the leaves?

shusha [124]

1. Question : What part of the plant that transport water from its root to its leaves.
The answer is the stem. The stem connects the plant’s root and leaves, it is responsible for transporting water that is absorbed by the root going to the leaves, it is also responsible for transporting nutrients absorbed with the leaves coming from the sun or any nutrients going to the roots to make is grow faster and healthy. Stem is the one that connects leaves and root and the one the does the transporting job.
