How fast would 40 Newtons of force accelerate a 2 kg object?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

$20 m/s^2$

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

$F=ma$

where

F is the net force on the object

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

In this problem:

F = 40 N is the force on the object

m = 2 kg is its mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{2}=20 m/s^2$

Water flows from a large drainage pipe at a rate of 950 gal/min. What is this volume rate of flow in (a) m3/s , (b) liters/min,

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$0.05997\ m^3/s$

$3596.1395\ L/min$

$2.11647\ ft^3/s$

Explanation:

$1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=0.05997\ m^3/s$

Volume rate of flow is $0.05997\ m^3/s$

$1\ gal/min=3.78541\ L/min\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times 3.78541=3596.1395\ L/min$

Volume rate of flow is $3596.1395\ L/min$

$1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=2.11647\ ft^3/s$

Volume rate of flow is $2.11647\ ft^3/s$

The human body has an average density of 979 kg/m3 , what fraction of a person is submerged when floating gently in fresh water?

FromTheMoon [43]

A person is submerged of about 97.9%.

The average density of the human body is given as 979 kg/ m³.

<h3>Define Law of floatation.</h3>

Law of floatation can be defined as the volume of the liquid displaced when a body floats on the liquid surface is equal to the body submerged in the water.

As body has the stable equilibrium state, the buoyancy of the fluid will be equal to the weight.

Weight of the body floating = Weight of the body immersed in fluid

Law of floatation = Density of the floating object / density of fluid

As fluid is the freshwater here, the density of fluid will be 1000 kg/ m³.

= (979 kg/ m³) / ( 1000 kg/ m³)

= 97.9 %

A person is submerged when floating gently in fresh water about 97.9%.

What would be the best design for an experiment that tests how much water expands when frozen?

galben [10]

B. Purchase a small plastic container and mark 1-ounce increments on the outside to determine volume. Pour 5 ounces of water into the container, and place in the freezer for 8 hours. Compare the frozen or ending volume with the liquid or beginning volume.

<h3>How much water expands when frozen?</h3>

Ice is less denser than the liquid form. Water is the only known non-metallic substance that expands when it freezes because it is the unique property of water. Water density decreases and it expands approximately about 9% by volume. For calculating the expansion of water, plastic container is the best option. We know that water expands when the water freezes because it is a unique property of water which allows the survival of aquatic organisms.

So we can conclude that option B is the right answer.
