Answer:

Decreases to half.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial mass (m₁) = m

Initial force (F₁) = F

Initial acceleration (a₁) =?

Final mass (m₂) = ½m

Final force (F₂) = ¼F

Final acceleration (a₂) =?

Next, we shall determine a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

F₁ = m₁a₁

F = ma₁

Divide both side by m

a₁ = F / m

Next, we shall determine a₂.

F₂ = m₂a₂

¼F = ½ma₂

2F = 4ma₂

Divide both side by 4m

a₂ = 2F / 4m

a₂ = F / 2m

Finally, we shall determine the ratio of a₂ to a₁. This can be obtained as follow:

a₁ = F / m

a₂ = F / 2m

a₂ : a₁ = a₂ / a₁

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m ÷ F/m

a₂ / a₁ = F/2m × m/F

a₂ / a₁ = ½

Cross multiply

a₂ = ½a₁

From the illustrations made above, the acceleration of the car will decrease to half the original acceleration

Suppose that instead of being inclined to Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Moon’s orbit was in the same plane as Earth’s orbit
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

12

Explanation:

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon in between the sun and the earth. Since in reality, the moons orbit is inclined, this aligning doesnt occur often. But if the orbit of the moon were in the same plane as the earth orbit, and since the moon orbits the earth once a month, the three objects would align every month. This makes it 12 times in a year.

A disk rotates freely on a vertical axis with an angular velocity of 50 rpm . An identical disk rotates above it in the same dir
True [87]

Answer:

Final angular velocity is 35rpm

Explanation:

Angular velocity is given by the equation:

I1w1i + I2w2i = I1w1f -I2w2f

But the two disks are identical, so Ii =I2

wf can be calculated using

wf = w1i - w2i/2

Given: w1i =50rpm w2i= 30rpm

wf= (50 + 20) / 2

wf= 70/2 = 35rpm

kow [346]
1-Without gravity you can't grow any plant or tree because dirt would fly away
2-We are using gravity for a lot of physics system too
3-All the water on Earth would have been flying in the space
4-There wouldn't be atmosphere.

How long will it take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The time taken by a transverse wave to propagate from one end to another depends on the number of oscillation made by the wave itself. If the total number of oscillation of the wave is known, the time taken by the wave to propagate through can be determined.

Note that the term "period" is the time taken by a transverse wave to complete one oscillation. So if we know the number of oscillation made in one second by the wave and the total oscillation made, then we can know determine how long it will take a transverse wave to propagate from one end of the string to the other
