Answer:

5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of wagon  = 10kg

Force of pull  = 70N

Frictional force = 20N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the wagon = ?

Solution:

Frictional force is a force that opposes motion.

The net force is given as:

   Net force  = mass x acceleration

 Force of pull  - Frictional force = mass x acceleration

 Insert the parameters and solve;

     70 - 20  = 10 x acceleration

       50  = 10 x acceleration

      Acceleration  = 5m/s²

Radio waves are readily diffracted around buildings, whereas light waves are negligibly diffracted around buildings. This is bec
Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.

A children's roller coaster is released from the top of a track. If its maximum speed at ground level is 3 m/s, find the height
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

h = 0.46 m

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Potential Energy Lost by Roller Coaster = Kinetic Energy Gained by Roller Coaster

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\2gh = v^2\\\\h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

where,

h = height = ?

v = speed at bottom = 3 m/s

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

h = \frac{(3\ m/s)^2}{(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)}

<u>h = 0.46 m</u>

I need help with these questions.
strojnjashka [21]

I'll go ahead and answer the ones here without an answer. For reference, the half-life formula is <em>final amount = original amount(1/2)^(time/half-life)</em>

<em />

4) 12.5g

x = 100(1/2)^(63/21)

5) 50g

3.125 = x(1/2)^(0.1/0.025)

6) 500g

x = 4000(1/2)^(525/175)

7) 0.24g

0.06 = x(1/2)^(11430/5730)

8) 125g

x = 1000(1/2)^(17100/5700)

Hope this helps! :)
