What else can I help you with?
A child slides down a frictionless slope at 25 degrees to the horizontal Calculate the child's acceleration down the slope?
a(child acceleration)=g(gravitational acceleration)*sin25=4.144 m/s2
Is inertia what causes acceleration?
No, inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its motion. Acceleration, on the other hand, is the rate of change of an object's velocity. Forces, such as pushes or pulls, are what typically cause acceleration.
How would the acceleration of the right sled change up if the force were larger?
If the force on the right sled were larger, its acceleration would increase. This is because acceleration is directly proportional to force according to Newton's second law of motion. The larger force would result in a greater acceleration of the sled.
How does friction decrease the acceleration of a car?
friction decreases the acceleration of a car by creating a greater force which pushes against the acceleration force. the friction is a force, but more of it means that whatever is pushing against it ( acceleration in this case) is made smaller.
Who has larger acceleration?
An object with a greater acceleration covers a larger change in velocity in a given time period compared to an object with a smaller acceleration. It is determined by the rate of change of velocity, with higher acceleration leading to a faster increase in speed.
What will change if a force pushes an object in the same direction as the object's motion?
It will cause acceleration, and increase its velocity.
Does the force of gravity affect the rate of acceleration?
If you are asking the rate of acceleration on a surface, than the larger the force of gravity is, the more it will affect the rate of acceleration. The amount of friction depends one many variables, one of which is gravity. The larger your force of gravity is, the larger the force of friction is. Because of this, the more the force of gravity is, than the slower the rate of acceleration is because of the larger force of friction, which would be acting against the rate of acceleration. Therefore, the force of gravity does affect the rate of acceleration.
How does force affect stationary object of different masses?
Force accelerates stationary masses as acceleration a=f/m; theacceleration is inverse to the mass. The smaller the mass the larger the acceleration and the larger the mass the smaller the acceleration.
Does a smaller object with the same force will accelerate the same than a larger object?
The smaller object will have a larger acceleration than the larger object. This is because, from Newton's second law, the acceleration of a body is given by: a = F/m where a is acceleration F is resultant force and m is mass F is constant, so acceleration is inversely proportional to mass. Hence, the smaller object will have a larger acceleration.
How much force is required when a shopper pushes a 7.5 kg object?
The force required when a shopper pushes a 7.5 kg object depends on the acceleration they want to achieve. According to Newton's second law of motion, force (F) equals mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a), so the formula is F m a. If the acceleration is known, the force can be calculated using this formula.
Is this correct a unit called a newton is used to measure pulls and pushes?
Yes. A Newton is a unit that measures acceleration.
Which acceleration has larger magnitude?
The acceleration with the larger magnitude is the one with a greater numerical value, regardless of its direction. Acceleration is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction, but when comparing magnitudes, only the numerical values are considered.
