Only two horizontal forces act on a 3.0 kg body that can move over a frictionless floor. one force is 9.0 n, acting due east, an

d the other is 9.2 n, acting 58° north of west. what is the magnitude of the body's acceleration?

The first thing you should do for this case is to find the horizontal and vertical components of the forces acting on the body.
 We have then:
 Horizontal = 9-9.2cos (58) = 4.124742769 N.
 Vertical = 9.2sin (58) = 7.802042485 N
 Then, the resulting net force is:
 F = √ ((4.124742769) ^ 2 + (7.802042485) ^ 2) = 8.825268826 N
 Then by definition:
 F = m * a
 Clearing the acceleration:
 a = F / m
 a = (8.825268826) / (3.0) = 2.941756275 m / s ^ 2
 answer:
 The magnitude of the body's acceleration is
 2.941756275 m / s ^ 2

gogolik [260]

Thomson experiment he calculated the charge to mass ratio just be passing the fundamental charge through a tube

He calculated the charge to mass ratio just by finding the deflection of charge while it is passing through the constant electric field

so here we will use the deflection as following

let say it passes the field of length "L"

so here we have

t = \frac{L}{v}

now in the same time if it deflect by some distance

\delta y = \frac{1}{2}at^2

\delta y = \frac{1}{2}{eE}{m}t^2

now by solving this equation we can find e/m ratio

so here correct answer will be

the electron's charge-to-mass ratio

14. Three identical light bulbs are connected in series, then are disconnected and arranged in parallel. For each of the scenari
Inessa [10]
In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.

a).  In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.

b).  In series, the total current is  V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is  3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.

c).  In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is 

                                   (V) · V/3R  =  V² / 3R .

In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is

                                   (V) · 3V/R  =  3V² / R .

Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.

If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, does it really make noise

Ye sit does. But since people weren’t there to hear it, doesn’t mean that it didn’t make a sound.

If Sarah melts 10g of tin. What mass of melted tin would she have at the end of the experiment?​
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

10g

Explanation:

As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".

Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...

Hence,

The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...

Plz help me on science about cells
tatuchka [14]
Cell theory states that all living things are made of cells. And cells can only come from other cells, this disproves spontaneous generation and therefore proves the view that organisms can grow from food or dirt is wrong.
