Answer:

First, they are the most visible and authoritative spokesperson for the majority party in the House. Speakers articulate an agenda and explain legislative action to other Washington officials as well as the public. They oversee House committee assignments and collaborate with the powerful House Rules Committee to structure floor debate.

Second, the speaker manages business on the floor and navigates legislative rules, structuring House debate in a way that will advantage their legislative priorities. Adherence to strict rules and procedures is necessary to overcome the difficulty of managing a large legislative body like the House of Representatives.

Third, the speaker oversees everything from accounting to procurement for the House.

A 2 kg mass is free falling in the negative Y direction when a 10 N force is exerted in the minus X direction. What is the accel

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The mass's acceleration is 5 m/s^2 in the minus X direction and 9,8 m/s^2 in the minus Y direction.

Explanation:

By applying the second Newton's law in the X and Y direction we found that in the minus X direction an external force of 10 N is exerted, while in the minus Y direction the gravity acceleration is acting:

X-direction balance force: $-10 [N] = m.ax$

Y-direction balance force: $-m*9,8 \frac{m}{s^2} = m.ay$

Where ax and ay are the components of the respective acceleration and m is the mass. By solving for each acceleration:

$ax=(-10 [N]) / m$

$ay=-m*9,8\frac{m}{s^2} / m$

Note that for the second equation above the mass is cancelled and, the Y direction acceleration is minus the gravity acceleration:

$ay=-9,8\frac{m}{s^2}$

For the x component aceleration we must replace the Newton unit:

$N =\frac{kg.m}{s^2}$

$ax= -10 \frac{kg.m}{s^2} / (2 kg)$

$ax= - 5 \frac{m}{s^2}$

A Capacitor is a circuit component that stores energy and can be charged when current flows through it. A current of 3A flows th

ddd [48]

Answer:

$8\mu C$

Explanation:

t = Time taken = $2\mu s$

i = Current = 3 A

q(0) = Initial charge = $2\mu C$

Charge is given by

$q=\int_0^t idt+q(0)\\\Rightarrow q=\int_0^{2\mu s} 3dt+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=3(2\mu s-0)+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=6\mu C+2\mu C\\\Rightarrow q=8\mu C$

The magnitude of the net electric charge of the capacitor is $8\mu C$

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?

slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

applied force, F = 600 N
mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg
speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

$F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s$
