Answer:

a = 5.5 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

ΣF =m*a

where:

F = Force [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 20 [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Let's take the force of 230 [N] as positive, in this way the other force will be negative, by pointing in the opposite direction.

230 - 120 = 20*a\\110 = 20*a\\a=5.5 [m/s^{2} ]

Mass of 23.94kg and volume 2.10 cubic centimeters. Calculate the density of the copper wire in si units (ų/mm cubic)
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Density = 1.14 kg/mm³

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Volume = 2.10 cm³ to mm = 2.10 * 10 = 21 mm³

Mass = 23.94kg

To find the density;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Density = \frac{23.94}{21}

Density = 1.14 kg/mm³

How does Newton's third law of motion give a property of process​
elixir [45]

Answer:

Newton's third law explains the generation of thrust by a rocket engine. In a rocket engine, hot exhaust gas is produced through the combustion of a fuel with an oxidizer. The hot exhaust gas flows through the rocket nozzle and is accelerated to the rear of the rocket. In re-action, a thrusting force is produced on the engine mount.

Why do scientist use light years instead to measure space instead of kilometers?
IrinaK [193]
The reason scientists use light years instead of kilometres is becasue a light year is the distance traveled by light in one year, and if we actually did the math (ill just give it to you)9.4605289*10^{15} meters to put that into perspective a kilometer is 1000 meters or 1.0*10^{3} meters. if they mesured everything in kilometers they would have to use even bigger numbers than they already do.

Which of the following statements are true? The internal resistance of a battery decreases with decreasing temperature. A batter
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

  • The obstruction offered by the battery is known as its internal resistance. Electricity is produced by the chemical reactions inside the battery. The pace of the responses is straightforwardly relative to the temperature and the power delivered by the battery increments. In this way, the inward opposition of the battery increments as diminishing the temperature.  
  • The battery is a gadget which generates electrical energy by the chemical reactions that takes place inside it.  
  • In this way, the announcement a battery is a gadget that produces electricity by the transformation of chemical energy into electrical energy is valid.  
  • The potential difference between the terminals of a battery, when no current is streaming into an outer circuit is called emf of the battery and if the potential distinction is measure when the current is streaming into the outside circuit is called terminal voltage .
  • The battery attempts to move the negative charge from the low potential terminal to the high potential terminal of the battery. The potential vitality of the negative charges is high at the lower potential terminal and the potential vitality of the negative charge is low at the high potential terminal. Along these lines, the battery attempts to move the charges from high potential terminal to low potential terminal.
