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

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

A. 91 meters north

Explanation:

Take +y to be north.

Given:

v₀ = 13 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 7 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (13 m/s) (7 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (7 s)²

Δy = 91 m

The displacement is 91 m north.

Lelu [443]

The easiest way to answer this question is just to get the answer first. The answer is A with the added comment that no chemical reaction has taken place.

Layered means that the chemicals are not soluble in one another. B is not the answer.

C is eliminated by what what was said about A.

D a solution is not a pure substance (singular) by itself. There are at least 2 chemicals together.

The Earth's axis of rotation is tilted. Because of this, the amount of sunlight an area on the planet receives each day varies
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: The Northern Hemisphere experiences the start of <u>summer</u>

Explanation:

Due to this tilt in Earth's axis of rotation, some regions receive different amounts of sunlight according to the seasons of the year. These variations are more evident near the poles and softer or imperceptible near the equator. This explains the fact that while in the northern hemisphere it is summer and there are high temperatures (because the Sunlight incides more perpendicularly in this area during this season), in the southern hemisphere it is winter and very low temperatures are recorded, and vice versa.  

In this sense, according to the image the Earth is at the point of its orbit in which, due to the inclination of its axis, the North Pole is closer to the Sun.  

In other words, the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun, and this astronomical phenomenon brings the summer season for the Northern Hemisphere.
