Answer:

We conclude that the mass of a rock with a force of 500 N and an acceleration of 75 m/s² is 6.7 kg.

Hence, option D is correct.

Explanation:

Given

Force F = 500 N

Acceleration a = 75 m/s²

To determine

Mass m = ?

Important Tip:

The mass of a rock can be found using the formula F = ma

Using the formula

$F = ma$

where

F is the force (N)

m is the mass (kg)

a is the acceleration (m/s²)

now substituting F = 500, and a = 75 m/s² in the formula

$F = ma$

$500 = m(75)$

switch sides

$m\left(75\right)=500$

Divide both sides by 75

$\frac{m\cdot \:75}{75}=\frac{500}{75}$

simplify

$m=\frac{20}{3}$

$m=6.7$ kg

Therefore, we conclude that the mass of a rock with a force of 500 N and an acceleration of 75 m/s² is 6.7 kg.

Hence, option D is correct.

Two coils have the same number of circular turns and carry the same current. Each rotates in a magnetic field acting perpendicul

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The radius of coil 2 = 2.7 cm

Explanation:

The number of coils = 2

It is given that both carry equal current and rotates in the magnetic field.

The given radius of coil 1 = 4.0 cm

Coil 1 rotates = 0.21 T field

Coil 2 rotates = 0.45 T filed.

The radius of coil 2 need to be calculated.

Torque action on dipole is given by $T =NIABsinθ$

here T1 = T2

$r1^{2} \times B1 = r2^{2} \times B2 \\r2^{2} = 0.04 \times 0.04 \times \frac{0.21}{0.45} \\r2 = 0.027m \ or \ 2.7 cm \\$

The drawing shows a large cube (mass = 28.6 kg) being accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal force

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

P= 454.11 N

Explanation:

Since P is the only horizontal force acting on the system, it can be defined as the product of the acceleration by the total mass of the system (both cubes).

$P= (M+m)*a\\a = \frac{P}{28.6 +4.3}\\a = \frac{P}{32.9}$

The friction force between both cubes (F) is defined as the normal force acting on the smaller cube multiplied by the coefficient of static friction. Since both cubes are subject to the same acceleration:

$F = m * a*\mu \\F= 4.3*0.710*\frac{P}{32.9}\\F=3.053*\frac{P}{32.9}$

In order for the small cube to not slide down, the friction force must equal the weight of the small cube:

$3.053*\frac{P}{32.9} = 4.3 * g\\\\P = \frac{4.3*9.8*32.9}{3.053} \\P= 454.11 N$

The smallest magnitude that P can have in order to keep the small cube from sliding downward is 454.11 N

ben walks 2 m from his desk to the teachers desk. From the teachers desk he then walks 3 m in the same direction to the classroo

vaieri [72.5K]

Distance is the total length covered = 2m + 3m = 5m

Displacement is his distance from original position.

Displacement = 2m + (-3)m. Representing the 3m walked back as -3.

Displacement = 2m - 3m = -1m.

So his displacement is 1m behind his original starting point.

Magnesium Oxide Reaction

Verizon [17]

Answer:

When magnesium reacts with oxygen, it produces light bright enough to blind you temporarily. Magnesium burns so bright because the reaction releases a lot of heat. As a result of this exothermic reaction, magnesium gives two electrons to oxygen, forming powdery magnesium oxide (MgO).
