Answer:

A. Net force is 15 N.

B. The answer is given below.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Force applied by you (Fᵧ) = 15 N

Force applied by your friend (Fբ) = 30 NForce applied by you (Fᵧ) = 15 N

Force applied by your friend (Fբ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

A. Determination of the net force.

Force applied by you (Fᵧ) = 15 N

Force applied by your friend (Fբ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fբ – Fᵧ

Fₙ = 30 – 15

Fₙ = 15 N

Thus, the net force acting on the box is 15 N.

B. From the question given above, we can conclude that the box will move towards you because the force applied by your friend is greater than yours.

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

What must happen to an atom of magnesium in order to become a magnesium ion Mg+2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

A soccer player applies a force of 48.4 N to a soccer ball while kicking it. If the ball has
AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 110 m/s2

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

Since we have the force and the mass, we can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration by dividing both sides by mass:

Force/Mass = (Mass x Acceleration)/Mass

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Now we just have to plug in our values and calculate!

Acceleration = 48.4/0.44

Acceleration = 110m/s/s

It is option C. 110 m/s2

Hope this helped!
