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

1. A car is traveling at 36 m/s hits a tree and comes to rest in 0.05 seconds.
QveST [7]

Answer: a. -720m/s^2

b. Yes, airbags will deploy

Explanation:

The formula for acceleration is:

= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time

Final velocity = 0m/s

Initial velocity = 36m/s

Time taken = 0.05s

= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time

= (0 - 36)/0.05

= -36/0.05

= -720m/s^2.

Since it's negative, it shows that there was a deceleration.

2. Yes the airbag will deploy since the acceleration gotten is more than -600 m/s^2.

How you can change the state of matter of the substance in the container.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Change in the shape size volume and state of a substance

When a solid is heated, it turns into a liquid. As a liquid, a substance has a fixed volume, but its shape changes to fill the shape of its container. For instance, a glass of water is the liquid state of water. ... Gas expands to fill the shape and volume of its container.

Suppose you observed the equation for a traveling wave to be y(x, t) = A cos(kx − ????t), where its amplitude of oscillations wa
OLga [1]

Answer:

<h2>15m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The equation for a traveling wave as expressed as y(x, t) = A cos(kx − \omegat) where An is the amplitude f oscillation, \omega is the angular velocity and x is the horizontal displacement and y is the vertical displacement.

From the formula; k =\frac{2\pi x}{\lambda} \ and \ \omega = 2 \pi f where;

\lambda \ is\ the \ wavelength \ and\ f \ is\ the\ frequency

Before we can get the transverse speed, we need to get the frequency and the wavelength.

frequency = 1/period

Given period = 2/15 s

Frequency = \frac{1}{(2/15)}

frequency = 1 * 15/2

frequency f = 15/2 Hertz

Given wavelength \lambda = 2m

Transverse speed v = f \lambda

v = 15/2 * 2\\\\v = 30/2\\\\v = 15m/s

Hence, the transverse speed at that point is  15m/s

How are the forces observed related to the motion of the earth around the sun
Inga [223]

This question sounds like it came after some activity where
some forces were observed.  Since we were not there, and
we don't know what the activity was, we don't know what forces
were observed, and we have no clue to how they might be related
to the motion of the Earth around the sun.
