Answer:

9.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration gained by an object due to the gravitational force. Its SI unit is m/s 2. It has both magnitude and direction, hence, it’s a vector quantity. Acceleration due to gravity is represented by g. The standard value of g on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s2.

What happens to a circuit's resistance (R), voltage (V), and current (1) when

hammer [34]

Answer:

R increases

V is constant

I decreases

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:

$R = \frac{(Resistivity)(L)}{A}$

It is clear from this formula that resistance is directly proportional to the length of wire. So, when length of wire is increased, the resistance of circuit increases.

The voltage in the circuit will be constant as the voltage source remains same and it is not changed.

Now, we can use Ohm Law:

V = IR

at constant V:

I ∝ 1/R

it means that current is inversely proportional to resistance. Hence, the increase of resistance causes the current in circuit to decrease.

Therefore, the correct option will be:

D.

R increases

V is constant

I decreases

What is the mass of a truck in grams of it produces a force of 1500N while accelerating at a rate of 6 m/s²?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

250,000

Explanation:

<h2>formula = ( F=ma </h2>

F=1500N
a=6m/s^2
F= ma
m=?
1500/6 = m
m=250 kg
1kg =1000gm so 250kg =250,000gm
m =250×10^3 gm

A bicycle tire is spinning counterclockwise at 2.70 rad/s. During a time period Δt = 1.50 s, the tire is stopped and spun in the

Andru [333]

Answer:

Δω = -5.4 rad/s

αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial angular velocity = ωi = 2.70 rad/s

Final angular velocity = ωf = -2.70 rad/s (negative sign is

due to the movement in opposite direction)

Change in time period = Δt = 1.50 s

Required:

Change in angular velocity = Δω = ?

Average angular acceleration = αav = ?

Solution:

Angular velocity (Δω):

Δω = ωf - ωi

Δω = -2.70 - 2.70

Δω = -5.4 rad/s.

Average angular acceleration (αav):

αav = Δω/Δt

αav = -5.4/1.50

αav = -3.6 rad/s²

Since, the angular velocity is decreasing from 2.70 rad/s (in counter clockwise direction) to rest and then to -2.70 rad/s (in clockwise direction) so, the change in angular velocity is negative.
