Answer:

20 N

Explanation:

In air, the normal force is equal to the weight.

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Submerged in water, the normal force is equal to the weight minus the buoyant force:

∑F = ma

B + N − mg = 0

N = mg − B

Plugging in values:

80 N = 100 N − B

B = 20 N

Rearrange the momentum equation to solve for speed. Show all work.
nasty-shy [4]

Definition:                   Momentum  =  (mass) x (speed)


OK. Here we go.
Watch closely:


Divide each side        
by  'mass' :                  <span>Momentum / mass  =  Speed </span>


Did you follow that ?

the force between your feet and the floor is greater while standing on your tiptoes than while standing flat on your feet
Elodia [21]
Yes thats correct....becuase all of your weight is concentrated on a small area compared to the larger surface area of your feet!
is that what your question was?

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. At one position along its path it has a velocity of 34.3 m
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

We'll need two equations.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.

x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t

where t is time.

Given:

v = 47.5 m/s

v₀ = 34.3 m/s

x - x₀ = 40100 m

Find: a and t

(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)

a = 0.0135 m/s²

40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t

t = 980 s

How to intercept a slope
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The slope intercept form is probably the most frequently used way to express equation of a line. To be able to use slope intercept form, all that you need to be able to do is 1) find the slope of a line and 2) find the y-intercept of a line.
