Explanation:

The second law states that the greater the mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object. There is even an equation that says Force = mass x acceleration or F=ma. This also means that the harder you kick a ball the farther it will go.

What is the Force in Newtons exerted by cart with a mass of 0.75 kg and an Acceleration of 6m/s2?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.75 × 6 = 4.5

We have the final answer as

A train whistle is heard at 300 Hz as the train approaches town. The train cuts its speed in half as it nears the station, and t

givi [52]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as,

$f = f_0 (\frac{v_0}{v_0-v})$

Here,

$f_0$ = Frequency of Source

$v_s$ = Speed of sound

f = Frequency heard before slowing down

f' = Frequency heard after slowing down

v = Speed of the train before slowing down

So if the speed of the train after slowing down will be v/2, we can do a system equation of 2x2 at the two moments, then,

The first equation is,

$f = f_0 (\frac{v_0}{v_0-v})$

$300 = f_0 (\frac{343}{343-v})$

$(300*343) - 300v = 343f_0$

Now the second expression will be,

$f' = f_0 (\frac{v_0}{v_0-v/2})$

$290 = (343)(\frac{v_0}{343-v/2})$

$290*343-145v = 343f_0$

Dividing the two expression we have,

$\frac{(300*343) - 300v}{290*343-145v} = 1$

Solving for v, we have,

$v = 22.12m/s$

Therefore the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12m/s

A girl and boy pull in opposite directions on a stuffed animal. The girl exerts a force of 3.5 N. The mass of the stuffed animal

givi [52]

I'm gonna have to assume the girl is on the right side and boy on left.
The net force is the sum of all forces on an object (includes negatives).
Let's say the force of the boy is variable <em>b</em>. Use the formula F = ma.

<em>b </em>+ 3.5 = 0.2(2.5)

This is now simple algebra. Solve to get that <em />the boty is exerting a force of -3N to the left.

Roller coasters accelerates from initial speed of 6.0 M/S2 final speed of 70 M/S over four seconds. What is the acceleration?

choli [55]

Answer:

$a=16\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Motion With Constant Acceleration </u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes uniformly in time.

The formula to calculate the change of velocities is:

$v_f=v_o+at$

Where:

a = acceleration

vo = initial speed

vf = final speed

t = time

The roller coaster moves from vo=6 m/s to vf=70 m/s in t=4 seconds. To calculate the acceleration, solve for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{70-6}{4}=\frac{64}{4}$

$\boxed{a=16\ m/s^2}$

A balloon that has been rubbed on wool has a negative charge. When the balloon is held over—but not touching—some bits of paper,

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

This process is known as static electricity

Explanation:

When balloon is rubbed on the wool , a negative charge is usually formed. When the balloon is then held over—but not touching—some bits of paper, some of the bits jump up to the balloon. The bits which jump up to the balloon are positive charged and we know that unlike charges attract.

This process explains static electricity which is when the charges on a material are not in a balanced state.
