Answer:

<h2>10 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of an object given only the force acting on it and it's acceleration can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force in N

a is the acceleration in m/s²

We have

m =  \frac{20}{2}  = 10 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

An architect is redesigning a rectangular room on the blueprints of a house. She decides to double the width of the room, increa
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:3.6

Explanation:

Given

Architect decide to double the width

length increases by 50 percent

height increases by 20 percent

Let L,B,H be length,height and width of rectangular room

L'=1.5L

B'=2B

H'=1.2H

therefore new volume V'=L'\times B'\times H'

V'=1.5L\times 2B\times 1.2H

V'=3.6LBH

new volume is 3.6 times the original

Provide an example of when momentum is conserved and explain your answer you can get 10 PTS if answered with a good explaination
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

m_1=8\ kg,\ m_2=6\ kg,\ v_1=12\ m/s, v_2=4\ m/s,\ v_1'=-6\ m/s,\ v_2'=28\ m/s

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of Momentum </u>

The total momentum of a system of two particles is

p=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Where m1,m2,v1, and v2 are the respective masses and velocities of the particles at a given time. Then, the two particles collide and change their velocities to v1' and v2'. The final momentum is now

p'=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

The momentum is conserved if no external forces are acting on the system, thus

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1'+m_2v_2'

Let's put some numbers in the problem and say

m_1=8\ kg,\ m_2=6\ kg,\ v_1=12\ m/s, v_2=4\ m/s,\ v_1'=-6\ m/s,\ v_2'=28\ m/s

(8)(12)+(6)(4)=(8)(-6)+(6)(28)

96+24=-48+168

120=120

It means that when the particles collide, the first mass returns at 6 m/s and the second continues in the same direction at 28 m/s

The colour of star depend on its temperature, why?​
taurus [48]

<em>Another key factor that determines a star's colour is its temperature. As stars become hotter, the overall radiated energy increases, and the peak of the curve changes to shorter wavelengths. To put it another way, when a star heats up, the light it produces moves toward the blue end of the spectrum.</em>

A guitar string is 0.620m long, and oscillates at 234Hz. What is the velocity of the waves in the string? m/s
9966 [12]

Answer:

v = 72.54 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Length of a guitar string is 0.62 m

Frequency of a guitar string is 234 Hz

For guitar string,

L=2\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{L}{2}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{0.62}{2}\\\\\lambda=0.31\ m

The velocity of the wave in the string is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\v=234\times 0.31\\\\v=72.54\ m/s

So, the velocity of the waves in the string is 72.54 m/s.
