Answer: The maximum acceleration will be 3.0 m/sec^{2}.

Explanation: The force can be calculated using the following formula;

F = m. a;

(F - Force; m - mass and a - acceleration);

as provided in the question; mass (1) - 1200 kg; acceleration (1) - 4 m/sec^{2}

Substituting the values yields,

F = m_{1} a_{1} = 1200 X 4 = 4800 N; hence, F = 4800 N

Now, when an additional mass of 400 kg is incorporated, mass (2) will become 1600 kg and we need to determine the acceleration;

Here, the force remains unchanged; this can be equated;

m_{1} a_{1} = m_{2} a_{2};

So, 1200 X 4 = (1200 + 400) x a_{2}

Therefore, the result will be a_{2} = 3.0 m/sec^{2}

<span>Let F represent the maximum thrust produced by the car's motor. Thus, F = ma = 1300 x 3.0 = 3900 N. After adding the load, F stays the same, leading to the equation F = 1700a, which results in a = F/1700 = 3900/1700 = 2.3 m/s².</span>

A rocket in deep space has an exhaust-gas speed of 2000 m/s. When the rocket is fully loaded, the mass of the fuel is five times
Sav [3153]

Answer:

 v_{f} = 1,386 m / s

Explanation:

The mechanism behind rocket propulsion is defined by the formula

       v_{f} - v₀ =  v_{r} ln (M₀ / Mf)

Here, v refers to the initial, final, and relative velocities, while M indicates the masses

The provided values include the relative velocity (see = 2000 m / s) and the initial mass, where the mass of the rocket when loaded is represented as (M₀ = 5Mf)

For our analysis, we assume the rocket begins at rest (v₀ = 0)

Once half of the fuel has burnt, the mass ratio indicates that the current mass is    

       M = 2.5 Mf

       v_{f} - 0 = 2000 ln (5Mf / 2.5 Mf) = 2000 ln 2

       v_{f} = 1,386 m / s

When a mass m1is placed on top of a spring and allowed to come to rest, the spring iscompressed by an amount x1. How much would
Keith_Richards [3271]
x₂ = 16 g m₂ / k. The spring's behavior adheres to Hooke's law, expressed as F = k x. For equilibrium illustrated in Newton's diagram, F - W = 0 and k x₁ = m₁ g, leading to k = g m₁ / x₁. In an elevator moving upward with acceleration, the relation adjusts to F - W = m a, which gives F = m (g + a). Compression becomes K x₂ = 4 m (g + 3g), simplifying to x₂ = 4m / k (4g) and ultimately x₂ = 16m2 / k g.

A spring with a spring constant of 400 n / M has a mass hung on it so it stretches 8 cm. calculate how much mass the spring is s
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

3.3kg

Explanation:

Given information:

Spring constant = 400N/m

Extension = 8cm = 0.08m

We need to determine:

The mass that the spring can support =?

Solution:

To arrive at the solution:

     F = kE

F represents the force

k is the spring constant

E is the extension

So;

            F = 400 x 0.08 = 32N

Mass;

       Force = mass x gravitational acceleration

          32 = mass x 9.8

  Therefore, mass = 3.3kg
