A car weighs 2,000 kg. It moves along a road by applying a force on the road with a parallel component of 560 N. There are two p

assengers in the car, each weighing 55 kg. If the magnitude of the force of friction experienced by the car is 45 N, what is the acceleration of the car?

Answer:

The acceleration of the car is 0.244 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the car, m = 2,000 kg

applied parallel force on the car, F = 560 N

mass of the two passengers, m = 2 x 55 kg = 110 kg

frictional force on the car (reducing horizontal motion), Fk = 45 N

Weight of the car acting downward, W = 2,000 x 9.8 = 19,600 N

weight of the two passengers acting downward, w = 110 x 9.8 = 1078 N

The net horizontal force on the car is given by;

∑Fx = F - Fk

∑Fx = 560 - 45

∑Fx = 515 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

where;

m is the total mass of the system = mass of car + mass of passengers

m = 2000 + 110 = 2,110 kg

a = ∑Fx / m

a = 515 / 2110

a = 0.244 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 0.244 m/s²

Falling raindrops frequently develop electric charges. Does this create noticeable forces between the droplets? Suppose two 1.8
Tema [17]

Answer:

The value of developed electric force is 3.516\times 10^{- 7} N

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the droplet = 1.8 mg = 1.8\times 10^{- 6} kg

Charge on droplet, Q = 25 pC = 25\times 10^{- 12} C

Distance between the 2 droplets, D = 0.40 cm = 0.004 m

Now, the Electrostatic force given by Coulomb:

F_{E} = \frac{1}{4\pi epsilon_{o}}.\frac{Q^{2}}{D^{2}}

\frac{1}{4\pi epsilon_{o}} = 9\times 10^{9} m/F

F_{E} = (9\times 10^{9}).\frac{(25\times 10^{- 12})^{2}}{0.004^{2}}

F_{E} = 3.516\times 10^{- 7} N

The magnitude of force is too low to be noticed.

A sample of nitrogen gas exerts a pressure of 9.80 atm at 32 C. What would its temperature be (in C) when its pressure is increa
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

T₂ = 111.57 °C

Explanation:

Given that

Initial pressure P₁ = 9.8 atm

T₁ = 32°C  = 273 + 32 =305  K

The final pressure   P₂ = 11.2 atm

Lets take the final temperature = T₂

We know that ,the ideal gas equation  

If the volume  of the gas is constant ,then we can say that

\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}

T_2=\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\times T_1

Now by putting the values in the above equation ,we get

T_2=\dfrac{11.2}{9.8}\times 305\ K

T_2=348.57\ K

T₂ = 384.57 - 273 °C

T₂ = 111.57 °C

Given a die, would it be more likely to get a single 6 in six rolls, at least two 6s in twelve rolls, or at least one-hundred 6s
vichka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In first case we are interested in one time 6 in six rolls

Thus probability = number of chances required/Total chances

= 1/6

Similarly in the second case probability = 2/12 = 1/6

In the same way in last case probability = 100/600 = 1/6

The probability is the same . Thus all the cases has equal chances
