After Thanksgiving, Kevin and Gamal use the turkey’s wishbone to make a wish. If Kevin pulls on it with a force 0.17 N larger th

an the force Gamal pulls with in the opposite direction and the wishbone has a mass of 13 g, what is the wishbone’s initial acceleration?

The initial acceleration of the wishbone is 13.1 m/s².

<h3></h3><h3></h3><h3>Acceleration:</h3>

This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S.I unit of acceleration is m/s²

To calculate the acceleration of the wishbone, we use the formula below.

⇒ Formula:

  • F' = ma........................... equation 1

⇒ Where:

  • F' = Net force between Kevin and Gamal
  • m = mass of the wishbone
  • a = acceleration of the wishbone

⇒ make a the subject of the equation

  • a = F'/m....................... Equation 2

From the question,

⇒ Given:

  • F' = 0.17 N
  • m = 13 g = 0.013 kg

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • a = 0.17/0.013
  • a = 13.1 m/s²

Hence, The initial acceleration of the wishbone is 13.1 m/s².

How many (whole number of) 77 kg people
BabaBlast [244]
(1000kg)/(77kg) = 12.987013

The answer is 12 people. Because once you go to 13 people, the weight is 1001kg. Which is greater than the 1000kg limit.

Explain how "elastic potential energy" dramatically changed the sport of pole vaulting when flexible fiberglass poles replaced s
natulia [17]

Answer:

when the old wooden stiff poles were being used, none of the kinetic energy during the run-up was stored in the pole.  With the new fiber glass flexible pole, some of that energy is stored in the flexing of the pole and then released as the pole straightens out at the top of its arc.  Where 13 ft was considered an excellent competition vault with the stiff pole, the additional boost from the stored energy in the flex pole has made 17 ft vaults the winning heights.

The flexible fiberglass poles can bend more than wooden ones, before breaking. This meant that fiberglass poles are able to store more energy than wooden ones, and provide an additional increase in height to the vaulter, when the pole straightens out near the top of the vault.
