How much force is needed to accelerate a 66kg skier at 2m/sec^2

Physics

Hey there!
Because of Newton's Second Law, we know that:
Force = Mass times Acceleration
Now, we can plug in our values.
Force (what we're solving for) = 66* 2
Force = 132N
It would take 132 Newtons of force to push a 66-kilogram skier at 2 meters per second squared.

Hope this helps!

A student throws a 0.22 kg rock horizontally at 20.0 m/s from 10.0 m above the ground. Find the initial kinetic energy of the ro
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

44J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock  = 0.22kg

Initial velocity  = 20m/s

Distance moved  = 10m

Unknown:

Initial kinetic energy of the rock  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to understand that kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

It is mathematically expressed as;

     Kinetic energy  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

   Kinetic energy  =  \frac{1}{2} x 0.22 x 20²   = 44J

A car came to a stop from a speed of 35 m/s in a time of 8.1 seconds. What was the acceleration of the car?
uranmaximum [27]
Simply subtract the two velocities and divide by 8.1,

\frac{0 - 35}{8.1} = - 4.32

The spring in a retractable ballpoint pen is 1.8 cm long, with a 300 N/m spring constant. When the pen is retracted, the spring
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The energy required to extend the pen is 7.2 mJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1.8 cm

Spring constant = 300 N/m

Spring is compressed = 1.0 mm

Again, Compressed = 6.0 mm

Total compressed = 1.0+6.0 = 7.0 mm

We need to calculate the required energy

The energy required is equal to the change in spring potential energy

E=PE_{2}-PE_{1}

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_{2}^2-\dfrac{1}{2}kx_{1}^2

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times300\times(7.0\times10^{-3})^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times300\times(1.0\times10^{-3})^2

E=0.0072\ J

E=7.2\ mJ

Hence, The energy required to extend the pen is 7.2 mJ.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

a..... zero

b.... applied force of 50N and frictional force of 50 N both in opposite directions
