5 0

Answer:

The acceleration of the elephant is 5m/s^2 (squared).

Explanation:

Given: Force=200N, Mass=1000kg

Required: acceleration=?

Equation: a=F/m

Solution: a=200N/1000kg

Answer: a=5m/s^2

Ahat [919]
There is no acceleration of g in the x direction because the gravitational acceleration points downward. Also, on most studies we ignore the tidal forces since we are dealing with small bodies compared to the size of the earth.

A rubber band has potential energy of 5 J. If the spring constant of the rubber band is 50 N/m, what is the displacement of the
Valentin [98]
To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:

PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m

Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.

Question 3 of 15
omeli [17]

Answer:

B) Degrees

Explanation:

The directions of the vectors are often defined in terms of due East, due North, due West and due South. A direction exactly in between of North and East can be described as Northeast, similarly we can describe directions in terms of Northwest, Southeast and South west.

From these, the direction of a vector can be easily expressed in degrees, which is measured counter clockwise about its tail from due East. Considering that we can say that East is at 0° , North is at 90° , West is at 180 and South is at 270° counter clockwise rotation from due East.

So, we know that the direction of a vector lying somewhere between due East i.e 0° and due North i.e 90°, will be measured in degrees, which will have a value between 0°-90°

A mass m is attached to a string connected to a force sensor on a rotating platform. The platform’s angular velocity, ω, can be
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm

Explanation:

Given

The platform is rotating with angular speed , \omega =8.5\, \frac{rad}{sec}

Mass m is moving on platform in a circle with radius , r=0.20\, m

Force sensor reading to which spring is attached , F=4.8\, N

Now for the mass m to move in circle the required centripetal force is given by F=m\omega ^{2}r

=>4.8=m\times 8.5 ^{2}\times 0.20

=>m=0.332\, kg

Thus the mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm
