HELPPP!!!! if you double the force what is the change in acceleration

1 answer:

8 0

As we know that acceleration is directly proportional to force, therefore as the force is doubled, acceleration gets doubled too.

A fox is 7 meters from the base of a tree that is 15 m tall. A nest of owls is at the top of the tree. One of the owlets tosses

mamaluj [8]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

In this analysis, wind resistance is ignored, and g = 9.8 m/s².

The meat falls with zero vertical velocity, therefore the time, t, before the meat hits the ground is
$\frac{1}{2}*(9.8 \, \frac{m}{s^{2}})*(t \, s)^{2} = (15 \, m) \\ t= \sqrt{ \frac{15}{4.9} }= 1.75 \, s$

If the fox catches the meat before it hits the ground, then the fox should travel a horizontal distance d in the same time that the meat travels a horizontal distance (7 -d).
The meat travels a distance of
7 - d = (1.2 m/s)*(1.75 s) = 2.1 m
or
d = 4.9 m

Let v = velocity of the fox when it catches the meat.
If the acceleration of the fox is a m/s², then
v = 1.75a
Also,
$d= \frac{1}{2} *(a \, \frac{m}{s^{2}} )*(1.75 \, s)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}( \frac{v}{1.75})^{2}*(1.75^{2}) \\ 4.9 = 0.875v^{2} \\ v^{2} = 5.6 \\ v = 2.366 \, m/s$

Answer: 2.37 m/s (nearest hundredth)

A person in a kayak starts paddling, and it accelerates from 0 to 0.65 m/s in a distance of 0.40 m. If the combined mass of the

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Magnitude of the net force acting on the kayak = 39.61 N

Explanation:

Considering motion of kayak:-

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Distance , s = 0.40 m

Final velocity, v = 0.65 m/s

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Substituting

v² = u² + 2as

0.65² = 0² + 2 x a x 0.4

a = 0.53 m/s²

We have force, F = ma

Mass, m = 75 kg

F = ma = 75 x 0.53 = 39.61 N

Magnitude of the net force acting on the kayak = 39.61 N

Two atoms with different mass number but the same atomic number are called A) elements. B) ions. C) isotopes. D) nuclei.

saw5 [17]

C isotopes is the correct answer. Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number.All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.

Hope this helps! :)

A 85-kg astronaut is stranded from his space shuttle. He throws a 1-kg hammer away from the shuttle with a velocity of 17 m/s. H

algol [13]

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of astronaut, M = 85 Kg

mass of hammer, m = 1 Kg

velocity of hammer , v =17 m/s

speed of astronaut, v' = ?

initial speed of the astronaut and the hammer be equal to zero = ?

Using conservation of momentum

(M + m) V = M v' + m v

(M + m) x 0 = 85 x v' + 1 x 17

85 v' = -17

v' = -0.2 m/s

negative sign represent the astronaut is moving in opposite direction of hammer.

Hence, the speed of the astronaut is equal to 0.2 m/s
