What is the mass of a crate if a net force of 12 N gives the crate an acceleration of 0.20 m/s2?

1 answer:

8 0

A :-) for this question , we should apply
F = ma
Given - F = 12 N
a = 0.20 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
12 = m x 0.20
m = 12 by 0.20
m = 60 kg

.:. The mass is 60 kg.

A proud new Jaguar owner drives her car at a speed of 25 m/s into a corner. The coefficients of friction between the road and th

ehidna [41]

Answer:

ac = 3.92 m/s²

Explanation:

In this case the frictional force must balance the centripetal force for the car not to skid. Therefore,

Frictional Force = Centripetal Force

where,

Frictional Force = μ(Normal Force) = μ(weight) = μmg

Centripetal Force = (m)(ac)

Therefore,

μmg = (m)(ac)

ac = μg

where,

ac = magnitude of centripetal acceleration of car = ?

μ = coefficient of friction of tires (kinetic) = 0.4

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

ac = (0.4)(9.8 m/s²)

If a 0.15 kg ball falls and has a KE of 20 J just before striking the ground, from what height did it fall. A. 1.36m B. 3m C. 13

RUDIKE [14]

According to the conservation of mechanical energy, the kinetic energy just before the ball strikes the ground is equal to the potential energy just before it fell.

Therefore, we can say KE = PE
We know that PE = m·g·h

Which means KE = m·g·h

We can solve for h:

h = KE / m·g
= 20 / (0.15 · 9.8)
= 13.6m

The correct answer is: the ball has fallen from a height of 13.6m.

You are traveling at 100 km/hr to make it to work on time. You have to be to work in .25 hr or you will be late. You have 16 km

alexgriva [62]

Answer: Yes

Explanation:

Velocity $V$ is defined as the distance traveled $d$ in a specific time $t$ :

$V=\frac{d}{t}$

If you are traveling at $V=100 km/h$ a distance $d=16 m$ , then the time it will take you to be at work is:

$t=\frac{d}{V}=\frac{16 km}{100 km/h}$

$t=0.16 h$

This means you will make it on time, because this time is less than 0.25 h.

If a nearsighted person has a far point df that is 3.50m from the eye, what is the focal length f1 of the contact lenses that th

olga55 [171]

Answer:

f1= -350cm or -3.5m

f2= 22.1cm or 0.221m

Explanation:

A person is nearsighted when the person's far point is less than infinity. A diverging lens is normally used to correct this eye defect. A diverging lens has a negative focal length as seen in the solution attached.

Farsightedness is when a person's near point is farther than 25cm. This eye defect is corrected using a converging lens. The focal length of a converging lens is positive. This is evident in the solution attached. The near point is also referred to as the least distance of distinct vision.
