1 answer:

7 0

Answer: <em>One main reason, all three experts agree, is the phenomenon known as “windthrow” which uproots a tree. “The tree trunk acts as a lever and so the force applied to the roots and trunk increases with height,” says Foster. “Taller trees are more susceptible to windthrow.”</em>

the book has a mass of 2.5 kg. What net force must act on the book to mak it accelerate to the left at a rate of 7.0m/s2?

Reil [10]

Answer:

17.5 N

Explanation:

<h2>Given :</h2>

Mass (m) = 2.5 kg
Acceleration (a) = 7.0 m/s²

<h2>To calculate :</h2>

Force exerted (F)

<h2>Calculation :</h2>

→ F = (2.5 × 7.0) N

→ F = 25/10 × 7 N

→ F = 5/2 × 7 N

→ F = (5 × 7)/2 N

→ F = 35/2 N

→ <u>F</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>N</u><u> </u><u>towards</u><u> </u><u>left</u>

Hence, 17.5 N of net force must act on the book to make it accelerate to the left.
