A student places a block on a table and hangs one mass from the block. The student lets the block go and observes the block move

towards the end of the table where the mass was located. The student then places the block on the table and hangs a second, larger mass from the opposite end of the block. The block moves in the opposite direction as the first trial. What does this experiment demonstrate? Use information from the experiment to support your answer.​

Magnitude of acceleration

Explanation:

We know that acceleration can increase depending in the force applied on an object, any object with a greater mass will apply a greater force. F = M(a).

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s

Final velocity  = 8m/s

Time taken  = 4s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the boat = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

        A = \frac{v - u}{t}

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

    Insert the parameters and solve;

  A = \frac{8-8}{4}   = 0m/s²

The engineer of a train traveling at 30 m/sec sees a cow on the tracks. He applies the brakes and causes the train to accelerate
sineoko [7]

Answer:The train travels 105 meters after applying the brakes

Explanation:If he decelerates 1.5 every minute, then he went from 28,5 m/s, to 27.0 m/s, to 25.5 m/s, to 24.0 m/s, after 4 seconds. Add all this together and youll get 105 meters moved in 4 seconds after he hit the brakes, I dont have a notebook on me though sorry :/

How are the different firework shapes produced
AleksAgata [21]

To create the shapes, stars are arranged on a piece of cardboard in the desired configuration. If the stars are placed in a smiley face pattern on the cardboard, for example, they will explode into a smiley face in the sky. In fact, you may see several smiley faces in the sky at one time.

A child drops a ball from a window. The ball strikes the ground in 3.0 seconds. What is the velocity ofthe ball the instant befo
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The velocity of the ball is 30.0 m/s

This can be calculated by using the value of acceleration as 10.0 m/s2 in free fall and the given time of 3.0 seconds. To get the velocity, one will have to multiply the acceleration with the given time and the quotient would result to 30.0 m/s. Mostly all object regardless of their mass, fall to earth with the same acceleration in the absence of air resistance and as the child drops the ball from a window, it gains speed as it falls.

The relationship between frequency and period is...
Kazeer [188]

\\

Frequency, f, is how many cycles of an oscillation occur per second and is measured in cycles per second or hertz (Hz). The period of a wave, T, is the amount of time it takes a wave to vibrate one full cycle. These two terms are inversely proportional to each other: f = 1/T and T = 1/f.

\\

Hope It Helps!
