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

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

A) 0.660 g/ml

B) 1.297 ml

C) 0.272 g

Explanation:

Every substance, body or material has mass and volume, however the mass of different substances occupy different volumes.  This is where density D appears as a  physical characteristic property of matter that establishes a relationship between the mass m of a body or substance and the volume V it occupies:

D=\frac{m}{V} (1)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2 /><h2>Answer A:</h2>

Here the mass is m=0.155g and th volume V=0.000235L=0.235mL

Solving (1) with these values:

D=\frac{0.155g}{0.235mL} (2)

D=0.660g/mL (3)

<h2>Answer B:</h2>

In this case the mass of a sample is m=4.71g and its density is D=3.63g/mL.

Isolating V from (1):

V=\frac{m}{D} (4)

V=\frac{4.71g}{3.63g/mL} (5)

V=1.297mL (5)

<h2>Answer C:</h2>

In this case the volume of a sample is V=0.293mL and its density is D=0.930g/mL.

Isolating m from (1):

m=D.V (6)

m=(0.930g/mL)(0.293mL) (7)

m=0.272g (8)

jok3333 [9.3K]
<h2>It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial speed, u = 34 ft/s = 10.36 m/s

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = Final height - Initial height = 8 - 4 = 4 ft = 1.22 m

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

              s = ut + 0.5 at²

              1.22 = 10.36 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

              4.905t² - 10.36 t + 1.22 = 0

              t = 1.99 s     or    t = 0.125 seconds

Minimum time is 0.125 seconds.

It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.
