Schach [20]

Answer:

<h2>4.1 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.205 × 20

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.1 N</h3>

A child on a swing sweeps out a distance of 45 ft on the first pass. If she is allowed to continue swinging until she​ stops, an
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

d = 90 ft

Explanation:

Here in each swing the distance sweeps by the swing is half of the initial distance that it will move

So here we can say that total distance in whole motion is  given as

d = 45 + \frac{45}{2} + \frac{45}{4} + \frac{45}{8}..........

since it is half of the distance that it will move in each swing so it would be a geometric progression with common ratio of 1/2

so sum of such GP is given by the formula

S = \frac{a}{1 - r}

d = \frac{45}{1 - \frac{1}{2}}

d = 90 ft
