Answer: The force of the engines is 5700N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we have that:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

In this case, we have:

m = 1400kg

a = 3 m/s^2

And the force will be equal to the force of the engines, f, plus the force of  the current, -1500 N (because this is pushing you back, so it is in the opposite direction than f), then we have:

F = f - 1500N

Then we have the equation:

f - 1500N = 1400kg*3m/s^2 = 4200N

f - 1500N = 4200N

f = 4200N + 1500N = 5700N

The force of the engines is 5700N

Period and frequency are mutual reciprocals.

Period = 1 / frequency .

Frequency = 1 / period

(Frequency) x (Period) = 1

For a photoelectric tube, calculate the voltage which will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plat
Talja [164]

Answer:

1.11 V

Explanation:

Given that the Einstein photoelectric equation states that;

KE = E - Wo

E = energy of incident photon

Wo= work function of the metal

E = hf = 6.64 x 10-34 * 6 x 1014

E = 39.84 * 10^-20 J or 3.98  * 10^-19 J

KE = 3.98  * 10^-19 J - 2.2 x 10-19J

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J

We convert this value of KE to electron volts

KE = 1.78 *  10^-19J/1.6 x 10-19C

KE = 1.11 eV

Hence; 1.11 V will be just sufficient to stop electrons emitted by the sodium photo-plate reaching the collector plate.

Carlos runs with velocity \vec{v}v →= (5.6 m/s, 29o north of east) for 10 minutes. How far to the north of his starting position
romanna [79]

Answer:

1629 metres

Explanation:

Given that Carlos runs with velocity v = (5.6 m/s, 29o north of east) for 10 minutes.

To the north, the velocity will be:

V = 5.6 × sin 29

V = 2.715 m/s

Convert the time to second

Time = 10 × 60 = 600

Using the formula below

Velocity = distance/ time

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

2.715 = distance/600

Distance = 2.715 × 600

distance = 1629 m

What does the law of conservation
storchak [24]

Answer:

A  The total amount of matter cannot be created

or destroyed.

Explanation:The law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. For example, when wood burns, the mass of the soot, ashes, and gases equals the original mass of the charcoal and the oxygen when it first reacted. So the mass of the product equals the mass of the reactant.
