Answer:

Acceleration is 12m/s^2

Explanation:

We have a resultant force of 10N to the right and a resultant of 4N to the left, since the tow forces are acting in opposite directions, we subtract the two forces to find the net force. The net force would be 6N to the right.

We also know that F=ma, where F=force, m=mass, and a=acceleration

we can rearrange the equation like this,

a=F/m

now we can plug in the known variables

a=6N/0.5kg

a=12m/s^2

A reconnaissance plane flies 605 km away from
kolezko [41]

Answer:

                      v_{avg}  = 355 m/s  

Explanation:

Distance = 605 km

Initial speed = v_{i} = 284 m/s

Final velocity = v_{f} = 426 m/s

Average speed = ?

There is two method two find average speed. In first method, using 3rd equation of motion, we find acceleration.

                        2as = v_{f}^{2}+v_{i}^{2}

Then using first equation of motion, we find time

                        v_{f} = v_{i}+at

Then using the formula of average velocity, we find average velocity

                         v_{avg}=\frac{total-distance}{total-time}

Second method is very simple

                                  v_{avg}=\frac{v_{f}+v_{i} }{2}

                                   v_{avg}=\frac{426+284}{2}

                                   v_{avg}  = 355 m/s

In a certain collision we want to increase the force while keeping the magnitude of impulse the same. What can be done to achiev
Alexxx [7]
Impulse = mass * volume is the most common equation, but you can also calculate impulse by Force * time.  So if we increase the force we need to decrease the time.
