The resultant acceleration of the box is 0.055 m/s² in the direction of the greater force.

The given parameters:

Mass of the box, m = 31 kg
Two applied forces, = 8.3 N and 6.6 N

<h3>Resultant force on the box</h3>

The resultant force on the box is calculated as follows;

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2\\\\F_{net} = 8.3 \ N - \ 6.6 \ N\\\\F_{net} = 1.7 \ N$

<h3>Resultant acceleration of the box</h3>

The resultant acceleration of the box is calculated as follows;

$F = ma\\\\a = \frac{F}{m} \\\\a = \frac{1.7}{31} \\\\a = 0.055 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the resultant acceleration of the box is 0.055 m/s² in the direction of the greater force.

Answer:

$v = 12.57 m/s$

Explanation:

As we know that the radius of the circular motion is given as

$R = 50.00 cm$

time period of the motion is given as

$T = 0.2500 s$

now we know that it is moving with uniform speed

so it is given as

$v = \frac{2\pi R}{T}$

now plug in all data

$v = \frac{2\pi(0.50)}{0.25}$

$v = 12.57 m/s$

Two parallel metal plates are at a distance of 8.00 m apart.The electric field between the plates is uniform directed towards th

dezoksy [38]

<h2>The K.E of the charge is 1.02 x 10⁻¹⁷ J</h2>

Explanation:

When the charge of 2e is placed in between the plates .

The force applied on this charge by plates is = q E

here q is the magnitude of charge = 2 e = 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

and E is the magnitude of electric field intensity

The work done = Force x displacement

Thus W = q E x S

here S is displacement

Therefore W = 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4 x 8

= 1.02 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

This work will be converted into the kinetic energy of charge .

Thus K.E = 1.02 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

malfutka [58]

Answer: Moisture and food (bread)

Explanation:

Mould grows best in humid, damp air/wet conditions.

Since the bread is moist it will provide humidity for the mould as well as food.

A container with a cover would not be a favoring condition as mould needs oxygen to grow and survive.
