A girl and boy pull in opposite directions on a stuffed animal. The girl exerts a force of 3.5 N. The mass of the stuffed animal

is 0.2 kg, and it is accelerating to the right 2.5 m/s2. What is the force that the boy is exerting?

The resultant force on the animal = Resultant mass * total acceleration 
F = 0.2 * 2.5 to the right
F = 0.5 to the right.

As, girl exerting a force of 3.5 N & it's not mentioned that she is in right or left, so the force exerting by boy would be either:
3.5-0.5 = 3  OR  3.5+0.5 = 4

If boy exerting a greater force then, answer will be 4 N & if girl exerting a greater force the, answer will be 3 N

Hope this helps!

The correct answer is 4. 

2.5 x .2 = .5

3.5N + .5N = 4N

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

A river has a steady speed of vs. A student swims upstream a distance d and back to the starting point. (a) If the student can s
andre [41]

he speed of the student relative to shore is

v_ up = v- vs

v _down = v+ vs

The time required to travel distance d upstream
is

t_up = d/ v_up = d/ v- vs

(2)

The time required to swim the same distance d downstream is

t_down = d/ v_down = d/ v+ vs

A certain humidifier operates by raising water to the boiling point and then evaporating it. Every minute 30 g of water at 20◦ C
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier = 77.78 KJ

Explanation:

Total energy per minute the humidifier required = Energy required to heat water to boiling point) + Energy required to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point) ----- (1)

Specific heat of water = 4190 \frac{J}{kg k}

The heat of vaporization is =  2256 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Mass = 0.030 kg

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point =  m c ( T_{2} - T_{1} )

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point = 0.030 × 4.19 × (100 - 20)

Energy (E_{1}) = 10.08 KJ

Energy needed to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point

E_{2} = 0.030 × 2256 = 67.68 KJ

Thus the total energy needed E =  E_{1} + E_{2}

E = 10.08 + 67.68

E = 77.78 KJ

This is the value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier.

The information about groundwater recorded by a student is valid when
skelet666 [1.2K]
Such information is valid when A. it is not biased.
There is no bias in science - the results are either correct or incorrect; personal opinions have nothing to do with that. B is incorrect because the point of experiments is that they can be repeated to achieve the same results. C and D are likewise incorrect as primary sources are important, and you can share the results with others if you want to.

What is the magnitude of the force needed to hold the outer 2 cm of the blade to the inner portion of the blade?
kaheart [24]

Incomplete question.The complete question is here

What is the magnitude of the force needed to hold the outer 2 cm of the blade to the inner portion of the blade? The outer edge of the blade is 21 cm from the center of the blade, and the mass of the outer portion is 7.7 g. Even though the blade is 21cm long, the last 2cm should be treated as if they were at a point 20cm from the center of rotation.

Answer:

F= 0.034 N

Explanation:

Given Data

Outer=2 cm

Edge of blade=21 cm

Mass=7.7 g

Length of blade=21 cm

The last 2cm is treated as if they were at a point 20cm from the center of rotation

To Find

Force=?

Solution

Convert the given frequency to angular frequency

ω = 45 rpm * (2*pi rad / 1 rev) * (1 min / 60 s)

ω= 3/2*π rad/sec

Now to find centripetal force.

F = m×v²/r

F= m×ω²×r

Put the data

F = 0.0077 kg × (3/2×π rad/sec )²× 0.20 m

F= 0.034 N
