Answer:

 20 N

Explanation:

The relevant formula is ...

  F = ma . . . . m = mass, a = acceleration

  F = (10 kg)(2 m/s²) = 20 kg·m/s² = 20 N

George is applying force of 20 N.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

In 2 m/s², m is used to stand for the unit 'meters'. It should not be confused with the formula m, which stands for mass.

A cyclist is travelling eastwards at a velocity
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.02 m/s^2

Explanation:

change in velocity= 4.5m/s - 2.3m/s = 2.2 m/s

acceleration= change in velocity/change in time

acceleration= 2.2/120= 0.0183

= 0.02 (to 2 significant figures)

A cycle track is 500 metres long. Amy completes 10 laps. She travelled at an average speed of 12.5 metres per second. She puts o
yanalaym [24]
The fast lap is irrelevant to the question, because it didn't happen
until after the 9 laps that you're interested in.

To be perfectly technical about it, we don't actually have enough
information to answer the question.  You told us her average speed
for 10 laps, but we don't know anything about how her speed may
have changed during the whole 10 laps.  For all we know, maybe
she took a nap first, and then got up and drove 10 laps at the speed
of 125 metres per second.  That would produce the average speed
of 12.5 metres per second and we would never know it  Why not ?
That's only 280 miles per hour.  Bikes can do that, can't they ?

IF we can assume that Amy maintained a totally steady pace through
the entire 10 laps, then we could say that her average for 9 laps was
also 12.5 metres per second.

After release of jet, energy is lost by the engine. How principle of conservation of energy is obeyed in this condition.​
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy states that in a closed system, the energy can neither be created nor destroyed between interacting particles and remains constant or transformed from one form to another

In the jet engine, the release of jet changes the number of interacting particles in the engine, and given that energy cannot be created in the instantaneously closed system of the engine, energy is carried away and therefore lost by particles in the jet exhaust

The conservation of energy principle is therefore obeyed in the condition in which the jet engine losses energy by the release of jet

With what magnitude of force does a ball of mass 0.75 kilograms need to be hit so that it accelerates at the rate of 25 meters/s
serious [3.7K]

     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

               = (0.75 kg) x (25 m/s²)

               =  (0.75 x 25)  kg-m/s²

               =    18.75 newtons .

Note that even though we're talking about a 'hit', the acceleration only
lasts as long as the bat is in contact with the ball.  Once the ball leaves
the bat, it travels at whatever speed it had at the instant when they parted. 
Any change in its speed or direction after that is the result of gravity, air
resistance, and the fielder's mitt.  I learned a lot about these things a few
weeks ago, since I live in Chicago, about 6 miles from Wrigley Field, in
a house full of Cubs fans.
