Answer:

a = 151/3 m/s²

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Forces</u>

Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma

  • <em>F</em> is force (in N)
  • <em>m</em> is mass (in kg)
  • <em>a</em> is acceleration (in m/s²)

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

F = 755 N

<em>m</em> = 15 kg

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Substitute in variables [Newton's 2nd Law of Motion]:                                 755 N = (15 kg)a
  2. Isolate <em>a</em>:                                                                                                            a = 151/3 m/s²

A body of volume 2000 cm3 has a mass 4 kg. Find the density of the body. Will the body sink or float in water, if the density of
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

2 g/cm^3, it will sink

Explanation:

The density of an object is given by

d=\frac{m}{V}

where

m is the mass of the object

V is its volume

For the body in the problem, we have

m = 4 kg = 4000 g

V=2000 cm^3

Therefore, its density is

d=\frac{4000}{2000}=2 g/cm^3

And the object will sink in water, because its density is larger than that of water, which is 1 g/cm^3. (an object sinks when its density is larger than that of water, otherwise it floats).

Covalent Bonds usually bond atoms of which type of elements together?
anzhelika [568]
<h2>Answer: Nonmetals to Nonmetals </h2>

Covalent bonds hold non-metallic atoms together. These atoms have many electrons in their outermost level and have a tendency to gain electrons rather than to yield them.  

In this case the bond is formed by sharing a pair of electrons between the two atoms, one from each atom. Then, this pair of shared electrons is common to the two atoms and holds them together, so that both atoms acquire more stability.

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Confining pressure is where ________. Confining pressure is where ________. pressure is parallel to the bedding planes pressure
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

d) Forces are applied equally in all directions

Explanation:

Confining pressures are pressures imposed on a layer of soil by the weights of the layers on top of it. Confining pressures occur as a result of equal transmission of forces between the layers of a material (usually rock and soil).

It can also be described as an equal, all-sided pressure produced by overlying rocks in the crust of the earth.  As the confining pressure increases, the critical elastic energy of the layers of the material transforms from linear to exponential.

g An arrow is shot straight up in the air at an initial speed of 15.5 m/s. After how much time is the arrow moving downward at a
Sati [7]

Answer:

2.11 seconds

Explanation:

We use the kinematic equation for the velocity in a constantly accelerated motion under the acceleration of gravity (g):

v_f=v_i-g*t\\-5.2 = 15.5 - 9.8\,t\\9.8 \,t= 15.5 + 5.2\\t = 20.7/9.8\\t = 2.11 \,\,sec
