Answer:

The acceleration would decrease by a factor of 3.8.

Explanation:

Force = mass x acceleration

F = ma

If the mass is increased by a factor of 3.8. New mass = 3.8 m

If the same force is exerted, then acceleration is inversely proportional to mass and it changes by:

\frac {3.8 m}{m} = \frac{a} {a'}\\  \Rightarrow a' = \frac {a} {3.8}

Sidana [21]
Answer:
velocity = 7.26 * 10^6 m/sec

Explanation:
The rule that is used to solve this problem is shown in the attached image.
The variables are as follows:
k = 8.99 * 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2
e is the electron charge = -1.6 * 10^-19 C
q is the charge given = 1 * 10^-9 C
m is the mass of the electron = 9.11 * 10^-31
r1 is the radius of starting point = 3 cm = 0.03 m
r2 is the radius of the sphere = 2 cm = 0.02 m
Substitute with the givens in the equation to get the value of the velocity

Hope this helps :)

At room temperature, a typical person loses energy to the surroundings at the rate of 62 W. If this energy loss has to be made u
Alex_Xolod [135]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the given proportions of power and energy, as well as the energy conversion factor in Jules to Calories.

The power is defined as the amount of energy lost per second and whose unit is Watt. Therefore the energy loss rate given in seconds was

P = \frac{E}{t} \rightarrow E= Energy, t = time

P = 62W = 62 \frac{J}{s}

The rate of energy loss per day would then be,

P = 62\frac{J}{s} (\frac{86400s}{1day})

P = 5356800 \frac{J}{day}

That is to say that Energy in Jules per lost day is 5356800J

By definition we know that 1KCal = 4.184*10^{6}J

In this way the energy in Cal is,

E = 5356800J \frac{1KCal}{4.184*10^{6}J}

E = 1279.694 KCal

The number of kilocalories (food calories) must be 1279.694 KCal

What is the magnitude of the force a 1.5 x 10-3 C charge exerts on a 3.2 x 10-4 C charge located 1.5 m away?
sweet [91]
The magnitude of the force<span> a 1.5 x 10-3 C charge exerts on a 3.2 x 10-4 C charge located 1.5 m away is 1920 Newtons. The formula used to solve this problem is:

F = kq1q2/r^2

where:
F = Electric force, Newtons
k = Coulomb's constant, 9x10^9 Nm^2/C^2
q1 = point charge 1, C
q2 = point charge 2, C
r = distance between charges, meters

Using direct substitution, the force F is determined to be 1920 Newtons.</span>

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

= 236N

Explanation:

tension T = mg + ma

Given that,

m = 20kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a = 2.0 m/s²

T = m(g + a)

T = 20( 9.8 + 2.0)

  = 20(11.8)

  = 236N

Nathan accelerates his skateboard uniformly along a straight path from rest to 12.5 m/s in 2.5 s.
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

<h2>a) Nathan's acceleration is 5 m/s² </h2><h2>b) Nathan's displacement during this time interval is 15.625 m</h2><h2>c) Nathan's average velocity during this time interval is 6.25 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

     Final velocity, v = 12.5 m/s    

     Time, t = 2.5 s

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      1.25 = 0 + a x 2.5

                      a = 5 m/s²

     Nathan's acceleration is 5 m/s²

b) We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

        Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

        Acceleration, a = 5 m/s²  

        Time, t = 2.5 s      

     Substituting

                      s = ut + 0.5 at²

                      s = 0 x 2.5 + 0.5 x 5 x 2.5²

                      s = 15.625 m

      Nathan's displacement during this time interval is 15.625 m

c) Displacement = 15.625 m

   Time = 2.5 s

  We have

           Displacement = Time x Average velocity

           15.625 = 2.5 x  Average velocity

           Average velocity = 6.25 m/s

     Nathan's average velocity during this time interval is 6.25 m/s
