What is the acceleration of the box?

Physics
1 answer:
worty [1.4K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a=4,32m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 - F2

= 12-1.2

= 10.8N

m=2.5kg

Fnet =ma

10.8=2.5a then divide both sides by 2.5 to get acceleration

The moon is in a nearly circular orbit of radius r = 384000000 meters
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

2.72\cdot 10^{-3} m/s^2

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of an object in circular motion is the acceleration with which the object is attracted towards the center of the circular orbit. Mathematically, it is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where

v is the speed of the object

r is the radius of the orbit

The speed of the object is also given by the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the orbital period, T:

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}

Substituting into the previous equation, we find a new expression for the centripetal acceleration:

a=\frac{4\pi^2 r}{T^2}

In this problem:

- The radius of the orbit of the Moon is

r = 384000000 m = 3.84\cdot 10^8 m

- The period of the orbit is

T=27.32 d \cdot 24\cdot 60\cdot 60 =2.36\cdot 10^6 s

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration is:

a=\frac{4\pi^2 (3.84\cdot 10^8)}{(2.36\cdot 10^6)^2}=2.72\cdot 10^{-3} m/s^2

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.18 kg is at rest on the horizontal frictionless surface of the rink. A player applies a horizonta
Leya [2.2K]

Hello!

\large\boxed{0.018 N}

Begin by finding the acceleration of the puck. Use the kinematic equation:

d = v_{i} + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

The initial velocity is 0 m/s since the object was at rest, so we can rewrite the equation as:

d =  \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Plug in the given distance and time:

1.25 = \frac{1}{2}a(5^{2})\\\\2.50 = 25a\\\\a = 0.1 m/s^{2}

Find the net force using the formula F = m · a (Newton's Second Law)

F = 0.18 · 0.1

F = 0.018 N

Annie has a soccer ball and a cake ball she kicks each ball with the same Force the soccer ball accelerates at 3 m per second sq
lana [24]
Answer: The acceleration will be greater in the kickball than the soccer ball since the kick ball has a smaller mass and provided they are acted upon with equal force magnitude.

Explanation:

We can prove this by substituting with numerical values.

Say the force she kicked both balls with was 30 N. The mass of the soccer ball is 10kg and the mass of the kickball is 6kg.

Applying Newtons Second Law, F = ma

For the soccer ball:

30 = 10a
a = 30/10
a = 3

For the kickball:

30 = 6a
a = 30/6
a = 5

Hence the kickball will travel with a greater acceleration given the same force is acted upon and has a smaller mass than the soccer ball

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)
