The cart of mass 10 kg shown above moves without frictional loss on a level table. A 10 N force pulls on the cart horizontally to the right. At the same time, a 30 N forcipat an angle of 60° above the horizontal pulls on the cart to the left. What is the magnitude of the horizontal acceleration of the cart?

Apositive rod is placed to the left of sphere a, and the spheres are separated. which best describes the spheres? sphere a is negative and sphere b is positive because protons from sphere a are attracted to the rod and move to sphere b. sphere a is negative and sphere b is positive because electrons from sphere b are attracted to the rod and move to sphere a. sphere a is positive and sphere b is negative because electrons from the rod move to sphere b and protons then move to sphere a. sphere a is positive and sphere b is negative because protons move from sphere b to the rod and also to sphere a.

Ahorizontal wire is tied to supports at each end and vibrates in its second-overtone standing wave. the tension in the wire is 5.00 n, and the node-to-node distance in the standing wave is 6.28 cm. (a) what is the length of the wire? (b) a point at an anti- node of the standing wave on the wire travels from its maximum upward displacement to its maximum downward displacement in 8.40 ms. what is the wire's mass?

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.
