Answer:

0.8 seconds

Explanation:

F=ma

Let x be the seconds the force is applied.

m = 20kg

F = 50 Newtons (kg*m/sec^2)

acceleration, a, is provided for x seconds to increase the speed from 1 m/s to  3 m/s, an increase of 2m/s

Let's calculate the acceleration of the cart:

F=ma

(50 kg*m/s^2) = (20kg)*a

a = 2.5 m/s^2

---

The acceleration is 2.5 m/s^2.  The cart increases speed by 2.5 m/s every second.  

We want the number of seconds it takes to add 2.0 m/sec to the speed:

(2.5 m/s^2)*x = 2.0 m/s

x = (2.0/2.5) sec

x = 0.8 seconds

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Weight = electric force 
<span>mg = qE </span>

<span>6.64x10^-27 x 9.81 = (2 x 1.60x10^-19) E 
</span>qE =mg, 
<span>E = mg/q = 6.64•10^-27•9.8/2•1.6•10^-19 =2.03•10^-7 V/m</span>

In a circus act, a 70 kg clown is shot from a cannon with an initial velocity of 17 m/s at some unknown angle above the horizont
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

K_{2}=7302.4J

Explanation:

Given the initial velocity of the clown, his mass and final height we can calculate the final kinetic energy using the <em><u>conservation of total mechanical energy</u></em>

K_{1}+U_{1}=K_{2}+U_{2}

K_{2}=K_{1}+U_{1}-U_{2}

K_{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{1}^{2}+mgh_{1}-mgh_{2}

Since h_{1}=0

K_{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{1}^{2}-mgh_{2}

K_{2}=\frac{1}{2}(70kg)(17m/s)^2-(70kg)(9.8m/s^2)(4.1m)=7302.4J

K_{2}=7302.4J
