The acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased = 0.13 m/s²

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

A net force of 0.8 N acting on a 1.5-kg mass.

The net force is decreased to 0.2 N

Required

The acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased

Solution

Newton's 2nd law :

$\tt \sum F=m.a$

The mass used in state 1 and 2 remains the same, at 1.5 kg

state 1

ΣF=0.8 N

m=1.5 kg

The acceleration, a:

$\tt a=\dfrac{\sum F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.8}{1.5}\\\\a=0.53`m/s^2$

state 2

ΣF=0.2 N

m=1.5 kg

The acceleration, a:

$\tt a=\dfrac{\sum F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{0.2}{1.5}\\\\a=0.13~m/s^2$

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

3.0 x 10¹ Nm

Explanation:

Torque = F x r

Where F is force applied and r is perpendicular distance from pivot point . r

is also called lever arm

Here F = 15 N and r = 2.0 m

Torque

= 15 N X 2.0 m

= 3.0 10¹ Nm.

What provides the force on the person on the passenger seat?

frutty [35]

When the car speeds up, slows down, or goes around a curve,
passengers need a force applied to them to make them do the
same thing, otherwise they won't keep up with the car.

The force on the passenger is applied by means of friction between
the upholstery and the seat of his pants, and also by the seat-back
or his seat-belt.

Schach [20]

Answer:

Option c) are perpendicular to the electric field

Explanation:

Equipotential surfaces are perpendicular to the electric field. the electric field lines are projected outwards from the equipotential surface, i.e., the lines of the electric field are at 90 $^{\circ}$ to the equipotential surface.

Equipotential surface are those surfaces that have the same potential at any point on the surface. Thus the potential difference at any point on the surface is zero due to same potential.

Any charge particle on this surface will move in a perpendicular direction to the Coulombian force. No work is done by the force on a particle moving on an equipotential surface.

A charged particle moving along the x-axis enters a uniform magnetic field pointing along the z-axis. Because of an electric fie

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge particle have charge equal to +q .

force due to electric field will be along the field that is along y - axis . To balance it force by magnetic force must be along - y axis. ( negative of y axis )

force due to magnetic field = q ( v x B ) , v is velocity and B is magnetic field.

F = q ( v i x B k ) , ( velocity is along x direction and magnetic field is along z axis. )

= (Bqv) - j

= - Bqv j

The force will be along - ve y - direction .

If we take charge as negative or - q

force due to electric field will be along - y axis .

magnetic force = F = -q ( v i x B k )

= + Bqv j

magnetic force will be along + y axis

So it is difficult to find out the nature of charge on the particle from this experiment.
