<h3><u>For the aceleration:</u></h3>

First, let's find the resultant, and <u>applicate 2nd law of Newton</u> using the resultant, so:

R = ma

F - Ff = ma

Data:

F = Force = 1150 N

Ff = Friction force = 490 N

m = Mass = 150 kg

a = Aceleraction = ?

Replacing according our data:

1150 N - 490 N = 150 kg * a

660 N = 150 kg * a

660 N / 150 kg = a

a = 4,4 m/s²   ← Aceleration of the object

<h3><u>For the normal force:</u></h3>

The normal force IS NOT the resultant force, the normal force's the force between the ground and the object, in another words, is the weight of the object, and for the weight:

w = mg

w = 150 kg * 10 m/s²

w = 1500 N   ← Normal force between object and ground.

Which statement best describes the law of conservation of energy?
Phantasy [73]
<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>

When you push a child on a swing, your action is most effective when your pushes are timed to coincide with the natural frequenc
OleMash [197]

Answer:

T = 4.48 s

we can see that this time period is independent of the mass of the child so answer would be same if the child mass is different

Explanation:

Natural frequency of a simple pendulum of L length is given as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}

so the time period of the oscillation is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

so we will have

L = 5 m

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{5}{9.81}}

T = 4.48 s

also from above formula we can see that this time period is independent of the mass of the child so answer would be same if the child mass is different

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288
Tomtit [17]
<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.
