A car with a mass of 1500 kg is pulled by a rope that is horizontal to the ground. The tension in the rope is 2000 N and a frict

ion force of 350 N opposes the car's motion. What is the magnitude of the car's acceleration?

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming the ground is level as well.

F = ma

a = F/m

a = (2000 - 350) / 1500

a = 1.1 m/s²

Describe the sequence of events in the lithification of a sandstone

guajiro [1.7K]

Lithification is a diagenetic process in which loose sediment is converted to hard rocky compaction and cementation. So sediments (sand) are buried the increase in pressure from the weight of the overlaying material pushes the grains closer together. The volume of sediment is reduced and the fluids between the grains are also squeezed out. This leaves the sandstone tightly compressed <span>together this is lithification.</span>

A 0.25 kg steel ball is tied to the end of a string and then whirled in a vertical circle at a constant speed v. The length of t

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the tension in the string be T . At the top of the circle , total force acting on them = T + mg . This will provide centripetal force

T + mg = m v² / r

4 + .25 x 9.8 = .25 x v² / .62

6.45 = .25 v² / .62

v² = 16

v = 4 m /s .

The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to

Mashutka [201]

<span>The primary reason a light bulb emits light is due to the heating of the resistance in the filament of the light bulb. In fact, the power dissipated in a resistor is given by
</span> $P=I^2 R$
<span>where I is the current and R the resistance. The larger the resistance or the current in the resistor, the larger the power dissipated. Due to this dissipation of power, the temperature of the filament becomes very high, and the resistance becomes incandescent, emitting light.</span>
