The whale shark the largest of fish and can have the mass of three adult elephants. Suppose that a crane is whale shark into a t

ank for delivery to an aquariumThe crane must exert an unbalanced force of 2.5 * 10 ^ 4 to lift the shark from rest. If the shark's acceleration equals 1.25 m/s ^ 2 , what is the shark's mass?

Answer:

Mass, m = 20000 kg

Explanation:

The force acting on the shark, F=2.5\times 10^4\ N

Acceleration of the shark, a = 1.25 m/s²

We need to find the mass of the Shark. The force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

m is the shark's mass

So,

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20000\ kg

So, the mass of the Shark is 20000 kg.

Which of the following ocean motions are powered by the wind? waves tides surface currents deep ocean currents
Effectus [21]

At the entrance of most beaches, there is a bulletin board with notices about water conditions: maybe a faded sign warning about rip currents and a list of this week's tide tables. Most people pass them by without a second thought, but if you want to enter the ocean, it is important to know its movements, whether to avoid being caught in a riptide or to figure out when the waves will be at their best.


Hope this helps

A person pushes a large 42.9 kg box at a constant velocity of 9 m/s across a horizontal floor for 3.8 s. Find the
Gwar [14]

Answer:

10 kJ

Explanation:

W = Fd

W = (μN)(vt)

W = μ(mg)vt

W = 0.7(42.9)(9.81)(9)(3.8)

W = 10,075.12506 J

W ≈ 10 kJ

Commercials for a toy bouncy ball advertise that it will bounce to a height that is greater than the
storchak [24]

Answer:

because energy will be lost due to friction, sound, and heat (arguably similar to friction) and ENERGY MUST STAY THE SAME so it is IMPOSSIBLE for the ball to bounce higher than when dropped!

What is Newton's Second Law?
Rudiy27

Answer:

An object's acceleration depends on its mass and on the net force acting on it.

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

What cloud extending to the gravitational limits of the solar system would comets come from?.
ser-zykov [4K]

The Oort cloud extends to the gravitational limits of the solar system would comets come from.

<h3>What is oort cloud?</h3>

It is a hypothetical idea of a cloud of mostly frozen planetesimals that would orbit the Sun at distances between 2,000 and 200,000 AU.

The Oort cloud reaches the solar system's outer gravitational boundaries, where comets originate.

Hence cloud extending to the gravitational limits of the solar system will be oorto cloud.

To learn more about the oort cloud refer;
