A student pushes on a 8-kg box with a force of 35 N forward. The force of sliding friction is 10 N backward. What is the acceler

Answer:

(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

The formula for Force is:

Force = Mass*Acceleration

(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)

Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:

Acceleration = Force/Mass

(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)

We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.

= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg

The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.

= 25 N/8kg

= 3.125 m/s^2

Hope it helps :DD

Compute the velocity of an electron that has been accelerated through a difference of potential of 100 volts. express your answe
Elodia [21]

The velocity of an electron that has been accelerated through a difference of potential of 100 volts will be 5.93 * 10^{6} m/s

Electrons move because they get pushed by some external force. There are several energy sources that can force electrons to move. Voltage is the amount of push or pressure that is being applied to the electrons.

By conservation of energy, the kinetic energy has to equal the change in potential energy, so KE=q*V. The energy of the electron in electron-volts is numerically the same as the voltage between the plates.

given

charge of electron = 1.6 × 10^{-19} C

mass of electron  = 9.1 × 10^{-31} kg

Force in an electric field = q*E

potential energy is stored in the form of work done

potential energy = work done = Force * displacement

                                                   = q * (E * d)  

                                                   = q * (V) = 1.6 × 10^{-19} * 100

stored potential energy = kinetic energy in electric field

kinetic energy = 1/2 * m * v^{2}

                        = 1/2 *  9.1 × 10^{-31} *  v^{2}

equation both the equations

1/2 *  9.1 × 10^{-31} *  v^{2} = 1.6 × 10^{-17}

v^{2} = 0.352 * 10^{14} m/s

v^{2} = 35.2 * 10^{12}

    = 5.93 * 10^{6} m/s

How do you determine the speed or velocity of an object using a distance vs. time graph
Taya2010 [7]
The speed of an object can be determined from the distance vs time graph.

You know that speed = distance/time

in the graph, distance/time = slope of the curve.

So SPEED IS GIVEN BY THE SLOPE of the curve in the graph.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, parallel to time axis(x-axis), slope is 0. That means speed is 0. So the object is at rest.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, with some non-zero slope; That means speed is nonzero and constant. So the object is in uniform motion.

● If the distance vs time curve is a curved, the slope is changing. That means speed is changing. So the object is in an accelerated motion.

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ

For all turning vehicles, the rear wheels follow a ______ than the front wheels.
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Shorter path

Explanation:

For all turning vehicles, the rear wheels follow <u>Shorter path</u> than the front wheels.

Any turning vehicle, the rear(the back part of something, especially a vehicle.) wheels follow a shorter path than the front wheels. The longer the vehicle is, the greater the difference will be in path. Trucks initially swing out before making a turn
