On an aircraft carrier, a jet can be catapulted from 0 to 240

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

m = 27752.7 [kg]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must first use the following equation of kinematics.

$v_{f}=v_{o}+a*t$

where:

Vf = final velocity = 240 [km/h]

Vo = initial velocity = 0

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 2 [s]

But first we must convert the speed from kilometers per hour to meters per second.

$240[\frac{km}{h} ]*(\frac{1h}{3600s} )*(\frac{1000m}{1km} )=66.67[m/s]$

Now replacing:

$66.67 = 0 +a*2\\a = 33.33 [m/s^{2} ]$

Now using Newton's second law which is defined as the product of mass by acceleration we can determine the mass of the jet.

∑F = m*a

$925000=m*33.33\\m = 925000/33.33\\m = 27752.7 [kg]$

Bacteria provides a valuable clue to the origin of life on Earth. Which of these is the most likely process by which bacteria wa

mezya [45]

The appropriate answer is d. chemical transformation of non living matter. Scientists believe that life originated on earth when the conditions present led to the formation of chemicals that contain carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. These are the primary components of organic matter and consequently all living things. Inorganic matter in ancient oceans could have been transformed into amino acids by complex reactions involving extreme heat or lightening.

A horizontal force of 40N is needed to pull a 60kg box across the horizontal floor at which coefficient of friction between floo

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction is $0.068$ .

Work done is $320~J$ .

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the box ( $m$ ): $60$ kg

Force needed ( $F$ ): $40$ N

The formula to calculate the coefficient of friction between the floor and the box is given by

$F=\mu mg...................(1)$

Here, $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute $40$ N for $F$ , $60$ kg for $m$ and $9.80$ m/s² for $g$ into equation (1) and solve to calculate the value of the coefficient of friction.
