A boy pushes a stationary box of mass 20 kg with a force of 50 N.

Physics
1 answer:
pav-90 [236]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

2.5m/s^2

Explanation:

Since there is no friction, the only force acting on the box is the applied force

We can now use the equation Fnet = ma

and we can rearrange for a

a = Fnet/m

now input the values

a = 50N/20kg

a = 2.5 m/s^2

HELP NOWWW Studies based on which of the following were used to describe the current model of the atom?
alexgriva [62]
Well I know that ernest rutherford did the gold foil experiment where he fired alpha particles at gold foil. This experiment founded the nucleus but I don't know if the current model of the atom is based on this.

Cathode ray tube experiments sounds like its to do with electrolysis so i dont think it can be that.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

The intensity, I, of the sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, r, from the source.

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Hence,

I_1r_1^2 = I_2r_2^2

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}}

From the question, I_2 is half of I_1

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{0.5I_1}}

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{2}

r_2 = 113\text{ m}\sqrt{2} = 160 \text{ m}

Hooke's law. The distance d when a spring is stretched by a hanging objective varies directly as the weight w of the object. If
Fofino [41]
<span>Hooke's law is F=-kx, which means the elastic force contained by the spring is a product of the distance it stretches and its spring constant, but the direction of the force is opposite that of the displacement. We calculate as follows:

</span><span>(3 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) = -k(-0.38 m)
</span>k =<span> 77.4

</span><span>Then use k to find the new displacement, again using Hooke's law:
(7 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) = -(77.4)x
x = -0.89 m</span>

A box of mass m = 1.80 kg is dropped from rest onto a massless, vertical spring with spring constant k = 2.00 ✕ 102 N/m that is
Rudik [331]

Answer:

spring compressed is 0.724 m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 1.80 kg

spring constant k = 2 × 10²  N/m

initial height = 2.25 m

solution

we know from conservation of energy is

mg(h+x)  = 0.5 × k × x²       ...................1

here x is compression in spring

so put here value in equation 1 we get

1.8 × 9.8 × (2.25+x)  = 0.5 × 2× 10² × x²

solve it we get

x = 0.724344

so spring compressed is 0.724 m
