The acceleration of the wooden box is 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

<h3 /><h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of velocity.

To calculate the acceleration of the wooden box can be calculated using the formula below.

Formula:

  • F₂-F₁ = ma.................. Equation 1

Where:

  • F₂ = Force on the wooden box acting towards west
  • F₁ = Force on the wooden box acting towards the east
  • m = Mass of the wooden box.
  • a = Acceleration of the wooden box

Make a the subject of the equation

  • a = (F₂-F₁)/m........................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • F₂ = 270.7 N
  • F₁ = 85.7 N
  • m = 30 kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • a = (270.7-85.7)/30
  • a = 185/30
  • a = 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

Hence, The acceleration of the wooden box is 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

Collect information about working of Geyser and prepare a report
ikadub [295]
A geyser is actually a devise that coverts electrical energy into heat energy for heating up water. The heating element that is inside the geyser actually gets heated up and then in turn it heats the water in contact with it within the geyser. There is also a thermostat device within the geyser that cuts off the heating when the water temperature reaches the desired level. This helps in stopping of electrical energy loss. One inlet brings in cold water while another outlet gets rid of the hot water. When the temperature of the water falls below the desired level the heating is again started by the thermostat.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.2 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 16 N. a. How much
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

a   W_{3.5} = 490 \  J

b  W_{2.5} =  250 \  J

Explanation:

Generally the force constant is mathematically represented as

       k  = \frac{F}{x}

substituting values given in the question

=>   k  = \frac{16}{0.2}

=>   k  =  80 \ N /m

Generally the workdone  in stretching the spring 3.5 m is mathematically represented as

       W_{3.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  (3.5)^2

=>     W_{3.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  80  *  (3.5)^2

=>    W_{3.5} = 490 \  J

Generally the workdone  in compressing the spring 2.5 m is mathematically represented as

        W_{2.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  (2.5)^2

=>      W_{2.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  80 *  (2.5)^2

=>       W_{2.5} =  250 \  J

. Why are scientific models important? They help scientists prove scientific theories. They help scientists explain complex ques
sdas [7]
The best answer would be the 4th choice. "They help scientists explain concepts that are difficult to observe, this also covers the first answer which helps the scientist to answer complex questions. A scientific model is not used prove scientific laws as they may not always have all the data to prove so, instead it is used to allow them to explain better concepts revolving around science through research and may also allow them to predict results based on the accumulation of data and analyzing the trend of this resulting information.
