How do you calculate mass using Newton’s 2nd Law?

2 answers:

5 0

The 2nd Law says F=ma, where F is the force in Newtons, m is mass and a is acceleration. Earth's gravity is an acceleration, 9.8m/s^2. So you can solve the equation for mass, m=F/a, or m=F/9.8 where you've measured the force (weight) in Newtons.

To calculate from the mass by the during Newton's 2nd law are:

Newton's second law of motions is a states that the total net force will be acting on an object is to equal by the mass times acceleration.

With formula of m=f/a or a=f/m, and F=ma

A force did 80 j of work on an object in 4 m how big was the force

yanalaym [24]

Work = (force) x (distance)

80 J = (force) x (4 m)

Force = (80 J) / (4 m) = 20 N

That's IF the force was in the same direction as the 4m of motion.
If the force was kind of slanted, then it had to be stronger, and
it had a component of 20N in the direction of the motion.

What is the average velocity of a car if it travels from position 25m to a position of -7m in 34 seconds?

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

vp = 0.94 m/s

Explanation

Formula

Vp = position/ time

position: Initial position - Final position

Position = 25 m - (-7 m) = 25 m + 7 m = 32 m

Then

Vp = 32 m / 34 seconds

Vp = 0.94 m/s

A boat is traveling at an initial velocity of 2.7 meters per second in the positive direction. It accelerates at a rate of 0.15

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 4.5 \ m/s \ in \ the \ positive \ direction}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.

We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.

$v_f= v_i + at$

The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.

$v_i$ = 2.7 m/s
a= 0.15 m/s²
t= 12 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s^2)(12 \ s)$

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

$v_f= 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s/s * 12 \ s)$

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s *12)$

$\v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$ $v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$

Add.

$v_f=4.5 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>

Newton's third law can be summarized as "every action has an equal and opposite reaction". In this problem, consider the action

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Action force: Would be the force of your feet against the Earth given by the weight defined as:

$W = mg$

Where g is a constat who represent the gravity $g =9.8 m/s^2$ in Earth

Reaction force: Would be the force of the Earth pushing against your feet. And on this case is represented by the normal force defined as:

$N = \mu f_f$

Where $\mu$ represent the friction coefficient between the ground and the object.

And $f_f$ the friction force.

If we don't have any other forces involved in the y axis we can conclude that:

$W=N= mg$

And as we can see we have that Action force = Reaction force

So then the third Law of Newton is satisfied.

Explanation:

For this case we have this:

Action force: Would be the force of your feet against the Earth given by the weight defined as:

$W = mg$

Where g is a constat who represent the gravity $g =9.8 m/s^2$ in Earth

Reaction force: Would be the force of the Earth pushing against your feet. And on this case is represented by the normal force defined as:

$N = \mu f_f$

Where $\mu$ represent the friction coefficient between the ground and the object.

And $f_f$ the friction force.

If we don't have any other forces involved in the y axis we can conclude that:

$W=N= mg$

And as we can see we have that Action force = Reaction force

So then the third Law of Newton is satisfied.
