The cart will be pulled to the right by the hanging mass, so by Newton's second law, the net force on the cart is

<em>T</em> - 25 N = (8 kg) <em>a</em>

where <em>T</em> is the tension in the rope and <em>a</em> is the acceleration.

The hanging mass has a net force of

(6 kg) <em>g</em> - <em>T</em> = (6 kg) <em>a</em>

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s².

Adding these equations together eliminates <em>T</em>, and we can solve for <em>a</em> :

(<em>T</em> - 25 N) + ((6 kg) <em>g</em> - <em>T </em>) = (14 kg) <em>a</em>

33.8 N = (14 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (33.8 N) / (14 kg) ≈ 2.4 m/s²

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> - 25 N = (8 kg) (2.4 m/s²)

<em>T</em> ≈ 25 N + 19.31 N ≈ 44 N

cricket20 [7]
I think the best answer would be the last option. The main purpose of a service panel in a house is to keep electrical hazards localized. Service panels are used to identify circuit loads and isolate these loads so when  you want to check the equipment you can easily identify the line. Also, it would serve as the isolation point to avoid any electrical hazards.

1. 168.1 Hz

To find the apparent frequency heard by the driver in the car, we can use the formula for the Doppler effect:

f'=(\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_s})f

where

f is the original sound of the horn

v is the speed of sound

v_o is the velocity of the observer (the driver and the car), which is positive if the observer is moving towards the source and negative if it is moving away

v_s is the velocity of the sound source (the train), which is positive if the source is moving away from the observer and negative otherwise

In this problem we have, according to the sign convention used:

v = 343 m/s\\f = 164 Hz\\v_o = -15 m/s\\v_s = -23 m/s

Substituting, we find:

f'=(\frac{343-15}{343-23})(164)=168.1 Hz

2.  2.96\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of light can be calculated as

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

In this problem:

d=2\cdot 3.85\cdot 10^8 =7.7\cdot 10^8 m is the total distance travelled by the laser beam (twice the distance between the Earth and the Moon)

t = 2.60 s is the time taken

Substituting in the formula,

v=\frac{7.7\cdot 10^8 m}{2.60 s}=2.96\cdot 10^8 m/s

The statement would be False. T<span>he potential energy of a membrane potential comes solely from the difference in electrical charge across the membrane. In addition to that, membrane potential actually regulates the potential difference of nerve cells across the membrane estimated at 70 mV.</span>
