Two forces, one four times as large as the other, pull in the same direction on a 10kg mass and impart to it an acceleration of
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The acceleration of the mass is 2 meters per square second.

Explanation:

By Newton's second law, we know that force (F), measured in newtons, is the product of mass (m), measured in kilograms, and net acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second. That is:

F = m\cdot a (1)

The initial force applied in the mass is:

F = (10\,kg)\cdot \left(2.5\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

F = 25\,N

In addition, we know that force is directly proportional to acceleration. If the smaller force is removed, then the initial force is reduced to \frac{4}{5} of the initial force. The acceleration of the mass is:

\frac{25\,N}{20\,N} = \frac{2.5\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }{a}

a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The acceleration of the mass is 2 meters per square second.

A 12 oz can of soda is left in a car on a hot day. In the morning the soda temperature was 60oF with a gauge pressure of 40 psi.
Neko [114]
In this case, volume of the can remains constant. The relationship between pressure and temperature at constant volume is given by:

P/T = Constant

Then
\frac{ P_{1} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{ P_{2} }{ T_{2} }

Where
P1 = 40 psi
P2 = ?
T1 = 60°F ≈ 289 K
T2 = 90°F ≈ 305 K (note, 363 K is not right)

Substituting;
P_{2} = \frac{ P_{1}  T_{2} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{40*305}{289}  =42.21 psi

A rock has a mass of 25kg. The acceleration due to gravity is 10m/s and the height of the rock is 42 m. Find the potential energ
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Explanation:

 Mass of rock = 25 kg

 Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

 Height = 42 m

 Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

 PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Examine the spectra of the four unknown substances shown below. What can you conclude?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Line spectra are obtained when individual elements are heated using a high-voltage electrical discharge. This heating causes excitation of the element and a subsequent emission of distinct lines of colored light are obtained. Each element has its own unique emission line spectrum; therefore, if any of the tested substances were the same, their spectra would match. However, this is not the case so none of the substances are the same.
