Answer: 0.002 newtons

===================================================

Work Shown:

I'm assuming you meant to write "at 20 m/s^2" at the end. If so, then,

0.10 grams = 0.10/1000 = 0.0001 kg

m = 0.0001 kg = mass

a = 20 m/s^2 = acceleration

F = ma .... newton's second law

F = 0.0001*20

F = 0.002

The force required is 0.002 newtons

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

0.6375 m/s

Explanation:

Let x be the distance of the man from the building

from the figure attached

initially the value of x=12

Given:

$\frac{dx}{dt}=-1.7m/s$

where the negative sign depicts that the distance of the man from the building is decreasing.

Now, Let The length of the shadow be = y

we have to calculate $\frac{dy}{dt}$ when x=4

from the similar triangles

we have,

$\frac{2}{12-x}=\frac{y}{12}$

$y=\frac{24}{12-x}$

Differentiating with respect to time 't' we get

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{24}{12-x}^2\frac{-dx}{dt}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{24}{12-x}^2\frac{dx}{dt}$

Now for x = 4, and $\frac{dx}{dt}=-1.7m/s$ we have,

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{24}{12-4}^2\times (-1.7)$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=-0.6375m/s$

here, the negative sign depicts the decrease in length and in the question it is asked the decreasing rate thus, the answer is 0.6375m/s

sergejj [24]

For the given question above, I think there is an associated choice of answer for it. However, the answer for this is London Dispersion Forces. Dipole-dipole forces and hydrogen bonding are much stronger, leading to higher melting and boiling points.
