The lawnmower accelerates in the positive horizontal direction, so that the net horizontal force is, by Newton's second law,

(70 N) cos(-50°) = <em>m</em> (1.8 m/s²)

where <em>m</em> is the mass of the lawnmower. Solve for <em>m</em> :

<em>m</em> = ((70 N) cos(-50°)) / (1.8 m/s²)

<em>m</em> ≈ 25 kg

The lawnmower presumably doesn't get lifted off the ground, so that the net vertical force is 0. If <em>n</em> is the magnitude of the normal force, then by Newton's second law,

<em>n</em> - <em>m g</em> + (70 N) sin(-50°) = 0

<em>n</em> = <em>m g</em> + (70 N) sin(50°)

<em>n</em> = (25 kg) (9.8 m/s²) + (70 N) sin(50°)

<em>n</em> ≈ 300 N

concave <span>ray diagrams were constructed in order to determine the general location, size, orientation, and type of image formed by concave mirrors. Perhaps you noticed that there is a definite relationship between the image characteristics and the location where an object placed in front of a concave mirror. but, convex</span><span>ray diagrams were constructed in order to determine the location, size, orientation, and type of image formed by concave mirrors. The ray diagram constructed earlier for a convex mirror revealed that the image of the object was virtual, upright, reduced in size and located behind the mirror. </span>

a gas is placed inside a very cold box . The gas molecules transfer heat to the walls of the box. Which best describes what happ
insens350 [35]
As the gas cools down, particle movement slows down with it, and so does the temperature of the gas. This is because the more heat or thermal energy a gas has, the faster the particles move. This is why absolute zero, or 0 degrees Kelvin is defined as zero particle movement, because it has zero energy.
Hope this helps
