Hi there!

We can use Newton's Second Law:

\Sigma F = ma

∑F = net force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

We are given the mass and acceleration, so:

∑F = 20 · 2 = <u>40 N</u>

Which Equation will you use to solve this question (use the chart at the end of the lesson) While skiing, Sam flies down a hill
ozzi

A.Momentum Equation

m = mass = 75 kg

v = velocity = 18 m/s

P = momentum

Using the momentum equation , momentum is given as

P = mv

P = 75 x 18

P = 1350 kgm/s

all objects near the earths surface-regardless of size and weight have the same force of gravity acting on them. is it true or f
pickupchik [31]

False: the force of gravity acting on different objects is different and depends on their mass

Explanation:

The answer is false.

The force of gravity acting on an object (also known as weight) near the Earth's surface is given by:

F=mg

where:

m is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

We see from the formula that the force of gravity acting on an object depends on the mass: the larger the mass of the object, the stronger the gravitational force acting on it, and the smaller the mass, the weaker the force of gravity.

The factor that does not change is the acceleration of gravity, which is constant (9.8 m/s^2) if we are near the Earth's surface, and implies that all the objects in free fall accelerate at the same rate towards the ground, regardless of their size and weight.

How does the strong nuclear force hold the nucleus of an atom together?
erastovalidia [21]

The strong nuclear force holds the nucleus of an atom together.  

Somehow, it overcomes the electrical force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus, which all have the same charge but still stay close together somehow. (b)

I need help on this one please
klio [65]

Lithium shares more properties with Sodium, because they have the same number of valence electrons (one). Choice 1 is correct. Hope this helps!
