Answer:

450N

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m= 75kg

Acceleration= 6m/s^2

From the Newtons first law, F=ma

substitute

F=75*6

F= 450N

Hence the force is 450N

a desktop computer and monitor together draw about 2 A of current they plug into a wall outlet that is 120 V what is the Resista

Delvig [45]

Answer:

$60 \Omega$

Explanation:

the relation between current, voltage and resistance in an electrical circuit is given by Ohm's law:

$V=IR$

where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. In this problem, the current is I=2 A, the voltage is V=120 V, therefore we can arrange the previous equation and find the resistance:

$R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{120 V}{2 A}=60 \Omega$

What is the acceleration of Karla's I Phone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0m/s if it hits the wall 1.2 seconds lat

blagie [28]

The acceleration of Karla's I IPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of velocity change concerning time is known as acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the eventual effect of all forces applied to a body is its acceleration.

The pace at which a body's velocity varies is represented by acceleration, which is a vector quantity.

The given data in the problem is given by ;

u is the initial speed = 0 m/sec

v is the final speed= 35 m/sec

t is the time interval= 1.2 second

a is the acceleration=? m/sec²

The formula for acceleration is;

$\rm a=\frac{v-u}{t} \\\\ a= \frac{35-0}{1.2} \\\\ a= 29.16 \ m./s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of Karla's iPhone being thrown from Mr. Higley's classroom at 0 m/s will be 29.16 m/s²

What length of tube would be required to produce a second tone under the same experimental conditions? Explain your answer.

Alisiya [41]

There is an indirect relationship between length and frequency. The longer the length the pipe has, the higher frequency it is. The shorter the length the pipe has, the lower frequency it is.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The four properties of the string that affect its frequency are length, diameter, tension, and density. These properties are described below: When the length of a string is changed, it will vibrate with a different frequency. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch.

The longer the tube is the lower the pitch of the note that it can emit. When a tube is heated it expands and so is longer! As the gas in the tube gets warmer the molecules move faster, that means they can carry the vibrations of the sound wave more rapidly and so the pitch goes up.

A 25.0 g marble sliding to the right at 20.0 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 10.0 g marble moving in the same dir

vovikov84 [41]

In collision that are categorized as elastic, the total kinetic energy of the system is preserved such that,

KE1 = KE2

The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is solved below.

KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This value should also be equal to KE2, which can be calculated using the conditions after the collision.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Hence, the answer is 17.16 cm/s.
