Answer:

The moon is actually quite dim.

Explanation:

compared to other astronomical bodies. The moon only seems bright in the night sky because it is so close to the earth and because the trees, houses, and fields around you are so dark at night. In fact, the moon is one of the least reflective objects in the solar system.

A 2 kg mass is free falling in the negative Y direction when a 10 N force is exerted in the minus X direction. What is the accel

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The mass's acceleration is 5 m/s^2 in the minus X direction and 9,8 m/s^2 in the minus Y direction.

Explanation:

By applying the second Newton's law in the X and Y direction we found that in the minus X direction an external force of 10 N is exerted, while in the minus Y direction the gravity acceleration is acting:

X-direction balance force: $-10 [N] = m.ax$

Y-direction balance force: $-m*9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} = m.ay$

Where ax and ay are the components of the respective acceleration and m is the mass. By solving for each acceleration:

$ax=(-10 [N]) / m$

$ay=-m*9,8\frac{m}{s^2} / m$

Note that for the second equation above the mass is cancelled and, the Y direction acceleration is minus the gravity acceleration:

$ay=-9,8\frac{m}{s^2}$

For the x component aceleration we must replace the Newton unit:

$N =\frac{kg.m}{s^2}$

$ax= -10 \frac{kg.m}{s^2} / (2 kg)$

$ax= - 5 \frac{m}{s^2}$

Many firms develop a formal marketing plan to answer the question: who is your target market and how do you plan to reach them. A marketing plan is a comprehensive document which sets out an organization's overall marketing strategy. A marketing plan will include digital media, print media as well as product development strategies. The marketing plan takes the organization's mission statement and turns it into a practical plan. Its goal is to practically implement the reason for the organization's existance.
