Two students were pushing a heavy sofa. One student pushed with a force of 200.0 N to the right, while the other pushed with a f

orce of 150.0 N to the right. The floor exerted a frictional force of 100.0 N. If the sofa's mass is 91.0 kg, what is its acceleration? Round your answer to three significant figures.

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma

a = F/m

a = (200.0 + 150.0 - 100.0) / 91.0

a = 250.0/91.0

a = 2.7472527...

a = 2.75 m/s²

The first thing you should know in this case is the following definition:
 PV = nRT
 Then, as the temperature is constant, then:
 PV = k
 Then, we have two states:
 P1V1 = k
 P2V2 = k
 We can then equalize both equations:
 P1V1 = P2V2
 Substituting the values:
 (1.25) * (101) = (2.25) * (P2)
 Clearing P2:
 P2 = ((1.25) * (101)) /(2.25)=56.11Kpa
 answer:
 the new pressure inside the jar is 56.11Kpa

What happens to the electrostatic force between two charged particles if the distance between them is doubled?
Stells [14]

According to Coulomb's Law , The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges. So ,if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the  electrostatic force will become weak by one fourth of the original force.

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum

Explanation:

Let's look for the speed of the car

     F = m a

    a = F / m

We use kinematics to find lips

    v = v₀ + a t

    v = v₀ + (F / m) t

The moment is defined by

    p = m v

The moment change

    Δp = m v - m v₀

Let's replace the speeds in this equation

    Δp = m (v₀ + F / m t) - m v₀

    Δp = m v₀  + F t - m v₀  

    Δp = F t

We see that the change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum
