Answer:

m = 1.5 kg

Explanation:

Data:

Aceleration (a) = 8 m/s²
Force (F) = 12 N
Mass (m) = ?

Use formula:

$\boxed{m = \frac{F}{a}}$

Replace in the formula:

$\boxed{m = \frac{12N}{8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

Equate the newtons:

$\boxed{m = \frac{12kg*\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}$

Simplify m/s²:

$\boxed{m = \frac{12kg}{8}}$

It divides:

$\boxed{m =1.5kg}$

What is the mass of the train?

The mass of the train is <u>1.5 kilograms.</u>

serg [7]

The form of energy that can move from place to place across the universe is light energy. On earth, the main source of this energy is Sun. Most of the light energy comes from the sun because it is the primary source of all the energies. The food, fossil fuels, movement of winds, etc all exists due to Sun. Without sun, there won't be any light energy on the earth. In all the processes which occur on earth has a direct or indirect involvement of light energy which comes from sun.

Answer:

The height is $h_c = 42.857$

A circular hoop of different diameter cannot be released from a height 30cm and match the sphere speed because from the conservation relation the speed of the hoop is independent of the radius (Hence also the diameter )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height is $h_s = 30 \ cm$
