A 20 N force pulls to the right and friction pulls 5 N. If the mass is 5 kg, find acceleration.​

Physics
1 answer:
Slav-nsk [51]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Force - frictional Force = m * a

20N - 5N = 5 * a

15N = 5*a

15N / 5 = a

a = 3 m/s^2

You should note a couple of things.

1. The frictional Force always opposes the direction of motion. In this case it is minus and the 20 N is plus. It makes the acceleration less. If the friction force was not there then 20 N = m * a

20N = 5 kg * a

a = 20/5

a = 4 m/s^2.

You have a chemical sealed in a glass container filled with air. The glass container has a mass of 200.0 grams and the chemical
just olya [345]

Answer:

the total mass after chemical burn is 700 gram

Explanation:

Given data

glass mas s= 200 gram

chemical mass = 500 gram

total mass = 700 gram

to find out

what is the total mass after chemical burn

solution

we have given 200 gram + 500 gram = 700 gram

and we know here according to question that

container is sealed so total mass remain in container before burning and after burning

no air will release in seal container so

mass will be same as 700 gram

hence the total mass after chemical burn is 700 gram

Sound waves are a- Transverse b- Longitudinal c- Transverse and longitudinal
Katen [24]

Answer:

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature.

Explanation:

There are many types of waves like transverse, longitudinal, electromagnetic wave etc.

Sound waves are longitudinal in nature. In longitudinal type of wave, the medium particles moves parallel to the propagation of the wave. This type of waves move in the form of compression and rarefaction.

In compression, the particle density at a point is very less while in rarefaction, the particle density at a point is very high.

So, the correct option is (b) "longitudinal wave".

I know what dark matter is, but what exactly is dark energy and what does it do?
aksik [14]
If you know what dark matter is, my friend, then there are several thousand Astrophysicists and Cosmologists at universities around the world who would pay dearly for the opportunity to buy you a cup of coffee, and chat while you sip it.

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh
Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\

where;

F₀ is the observed frequency

v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\

F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.

Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.
