Answer:

600kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force  = 6000N

Acceleration  = 10m/s²

Unknown:

Mass of the body = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply newton's second law of motion:

    F = m x a

F is the force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

 So;

          6000  = m x 10

         m  = 600kg

In grinding a steel knife blade (specific heat = 0.11 cal/g-c),the metal can get as hot as 400C. If the blade has a mass of 80g,
babymother [125]

Answer:

33 g.

Explanation:

Assuming no heat transfer can be possible except for heat exchange between water and steel, we can say that the heat lost by the knife, must be equal to the heat gained by the water.

As we have a limit for the maximum temperature of both elements (once reached a final thermal equilibrium), of 100ºC, which means that the maximum allowable change in temperature will be of 300º C for the knife, and of 80º C for the water.

Empirically , it has been showed that for a heat exchange process using only conduction, the heat needed to raise the temperature of a body, is proportional to the mass, being the proportionality constant a factor that depends on the material, called specific heat.

So, we can write the following equation:

cs*mk*Δtk = cw*mw*Δtw

Replacing by the givens of the question, we have:

0.11 cal/gºC * 80 g * 300ºC = 1 cal/gºC*mw*80ºC

Solving for mw = 2,640 cal / 80 cal/g =33 g.

A 15 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring with spring constant 230 N/m and compresses it by 56 cm .What was the speed of t
liubo4ka [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy. Thus we will have that the kinetic energy is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

And the potential energy is

PE = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Here,

m = mass

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

k = Spring constant

There is equilibrium, then,

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Our values are given as,

x=0.56m\\k=230N/m\\m=15kg

Replacing we have that

\frac{1}{2} (15)v^2 = \frac{1}{2} (230)(0.56)^2

v = 2.19m/s

Therefore the speed of the cart is 2.19m/s

Having landed on a newly discovered planet, an astronaut sets up a simple pendulum of length 1.25 m and finds that it makes 419
Zina [86]

Answer:

g=2406.8m/s^{2}

Explanation:

firstly we have to find the frequency and then the angular frequency.

The frequency will be:

   f=\frac{419}{60} \\f=6.98Hz

The angular frequency is:

ω=2\pi f

ω=2*\frac{22}{7} *6.98

ω=43.88rad /sec

Now we can apply simple pendulum relationship

ω=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

make g the subject of the formula

g=w^{2} l\\g=43.88^{2} *1.25\\g=2406.8m/s^{2}
