What does Newton’s second law predict about the acceleration if the net force acting on an object increases?

2 answers:

7 0

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

$a = 4.76 cm$

Explanation:

As we know by the law of diffraction through circular aperture

$a sin\theta = 1.22 \lambda$

here we know that

a = diameter of the aperture

$\theta$ = diffraction angle

$\lambda$ = wavelength

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22 \lambda}{sin\theta}$

Now in order to find the wavelength we know

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{343}{9100}$

$\lambda = 0.0376 m$

now we have

$a = \frac{1.22(0.0376)}{sin75}$

$a = \frac{0.046}{0.966}$

$a = 0.0476 m= 4.76 cm$

Answer:

high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces

Heavy metals are toxic to humans,

the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic

Explanation:

The selection of materials for the construction of rockets takes into account many aspects, the technical resistance to the demands of space travel, but also the abundance of the material. Heavy metals have two very serious problems. The first one, some of them are a little scarce in nature, but the most serious problem is that almost all of them are toxic to humans, for example: lead and mercury.

On the other hand, the clay is quite abundant and in general it is not toxic to living beings.

If we use Newton's second law

F = m a

let's use the concept of density

rho = m / V

m = rho V

let's substitute

F = rho V a

From this expression we see that a material with high density can withstand high acceleration and applied forces, such as those existing in spacecraft clearance and re-entry to Earth.

Unfortunately with this law there is no criterion to select a material unless its density is high, in addition to this criterion low toxicity criteria for human beings are used,

Gnesinka [82]

Answer: B. Allegheny plateau

Explanation: Allegheny plateau is a mountainous region that makes up the northern part of the United States of America, the following states are located on the Allegheny plateau New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, it is made up of HORIZONTAL SEDIMENTARY BEDROCK at elevated lands. Allegheny plateau is over 40million area is over 40million acres,it has been a site for Erosion and for millions years,through this erosions some areas have been brought low while others are higher following the deposition of materials by the erosion.

While driving, your car has an initial position of 3.2 m, an initial velocity of -8.4 m/s, and

KIM [24]

Answer:

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the car is 3.2 meters

The initial velocity is -8.4 m/s

The constant acceleration is 1.1 m/s²

We need to find the final position of the car at the time t = 1.5 seconds

The displacement s = final position - initial position

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$ , where u is the initial velocity, a is the

constant acceleration and t is the time

So we can find the final velocity by using the rule:

final position - initial position = $ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

initial position = 3.2 meters , u = -8.4 m/s , a = 1.1 ²m/s , t = 1.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

final position - 3.2 = $(-8.4)(1.5)+\frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.5)^{2}$

final position - 3.2 = -12.6 + 1.2375

final position - 3.2 = -11.3625

add 3.2 for both sides

final position = -8.1625

That means the car is at 8.1625 meters in opposite direction

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters
