Answer:

<h3>F = 35.84N</h3>

Explanation:

Force = mass * acceleration (Newton's second law of motion)

Given

Mass = 32kg

Get the acceleration using the expression d = 1/2at^2

3.5 = 1/2 (a)2.5^2

3.5 = 3.125a

a = 3.5/3.125

a = 1.12m/s^2

Get the net force;

F =  3.2 * 1.12

F = 35.84N

Hence the net force used to accelerate is 35.84N

Which of the following is the most reasonable weight in units of newtons for an average adult?
Oliga [24]

Answer: The reason weight for average adult is 530N

Explanation: The clearly see this answer, let's convert this weight to kg using F=mg

530=m×9.8

g is a constant of 9.8m/s2

We divide both sides by 9.8 to get

54kg then this weight is reasonable for an average adult.

Can an object have a positive position, but a negative velocity? Explain your reasoning.
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A position describes the position of an object relative to the x/y-axis (or the four cardinal directions). A velocity is a vector quantity, defining speed with direction.

So if an object is in a positive position, it means they are in the positive x-axis direction (or wherever on the scale the positive values are stated to be) and if it has a negative velocity, it means said object is moving in the opposite direction of the positive x-axis. It is possible for the object to still be in the positive position as it's moving with a negative velocity

It has been suggested that a heat engine could be developed that made use of the fact that the temperature several hundred meter
lesantik [10]

Answer:

efficiency = 5.4%

Explanation:

Efficiency of heat engine is given as

\eta = \frac{W}{Q_{in}}

now we will have

W = Q_1 - Q_2

so we will have

\eta = 1 - \frac{Q_2}{Q_1}

now we know that

\frac{Q_2}{Q_1} = \frac{T_2}{T_1}

so we have

\eta = 1 - \frac{T_2}{T_1}

\eta = 1 - \frac{273+6}{273+22}

\eta = 0.054

so efficiency is 5.4%
