What is newton's second law of motion?

Physics
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

A 4,000-kg car traveling at 20m/s hits a wall with a force of 80,000 N and comes to a stop. What was the impact time?
Nookie1986 [14]
Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)

Electromagnetic induction
vredina [299]

Answer:

Electromagnetic Induction or Induction is a process in which a conductor is put in a particular position and magnetic field keeps varying or magnetic field is stationary and a conductor is moving. This produces a Voltage or EMF (Electromotive Force) across the electrical conductor.

g A simple pendulum (consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless string) on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for time period of a pendulum is given as follows :

T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

So time period of pendulum  is not dependent on the mass of the pendulum . If time period is same and length is also the same then acceleration due to gravity will also be the same . Hence the acceleration due to gravity at distant planet will be same as that on the earth.

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency?(b) What is its wavelength in glass t
inn [45]

(a) 4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

The frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

v is the wave's speed

\lambda is the wavelength

For the red laser light in this problem, we have

v=c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s (speed of light)

\lambda=632.8 nm=632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting,

f=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{632.8 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=4.74 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

(b) 427.6 nm

The wavelength of the wave in the glass is given by

\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}

where

\lambda_0 = 632.8\cdot 10^{-9} m is the original wavelength of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

\lambda=\frac{632.8\cdot 10^{-9}m}{1.48}=427.6\cdot 10^{-9}m=427.6 nm

(c) 2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of the wave in the glass is given by

v=\frac{c}{n}

where

c = 3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the original speed of the wave in air

n = 1.48 is the refractive index of glass

Substituting into the formula,

v=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.48}=2.02\cdot 10^8 m/s
