Answer:

2.33\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Net Force </u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

Fn = m.a

Where a is the acceleration of the object.  The net force is the sum of the individual vector forces applied to the object.

The m=1500 Kg car has two horizontal forces applied: the forward force of 5000 N that causes the movement and the air resistance force of 1250 N that opposes motion.

The net force is Fn = 5000 N - 1500 N = 3500 N

To find the acceleration, we solve the equation for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{Fn}{m}

\displaystyle a=\frac{3500}{1500}

\boxed{a = 2.33\ m/s^2}

The car's acceleration is a = 2.33\ m/s^2

n musical notation, stems are the, "thin, vertical lines that are directly connected to the [note] head." Stems may point up or down. ... There is an exception to this rule: if a chord contains a second, the stem runs between the two notes with the higher being placed on the right of the stem and the lower on the left.

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The new length is 50.00885m

Explanation:

linear thermal expansion coefficient Fe 11.8e-6 /K

The new length can be determined using the following equation:

∆L/L = α∆T, where α is linear thermal expansion coefficient

∆L = Lα∆T = 50(11.8e-6)(35-20) = 0.00885 m

New length = ( 50.000 + 0.00885)m =

New length = 50.00885 m

Answer:

Into the page (Answer B)

Explanation:

Recall that the magnetic field that is created around a current conducting wire follows the right hand rule, where the direction of your fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field vectors when your thumb points in the direction of the current flow.

Use this to see that as you place the thumb of your right hand on the page pointing to the right (direction of the current in the wire). As you do so, you find the four fingers of your right hand entering the paper.
