When a net force of 17.0 newtons is applied to a dictionary placed on a frictionless table, it accelerates by 3.75 meters/secondÆ. What is the mass of the book?

Answer:

31,556,736 seconds

Explanation:

The period of Earth's orbit around the Sun, T = (365 + 1/4) days (three hundred and sixty five and a quarter days

The period of Earth's orbit around the Sun in seconds is given by converting, T = into seconds as follows;

There are 60 seconds per minute, 60 minutes in each hour, 24 hours within each day, therefore, we get;

T = ×60 sec/min × 60 min/hr. × 24hr/day = 31,556,736 seconds

Answer:

Explanation:

the answer is rubber tape not friction tape

Importanceofozonelayer:

• The ozone shields the surface of the earth from ultraviolet UV radiation from the sun.
• These radiations are highly damaging as they can cause cancer in both plants and animals, damage to eyes and immune system.
• They can also lead to variations in global rainfall, ecological disturbances and dwingling of global food suppliers.

Explanation:

Formationofozonelayer:ozone at the higher level of the atmosphere is a product of UV radiations acting on oxygen O2 molecule. The higher energy UV radiations split apart some molecular oxygen( O2) into free oxygen (O) atoms.

Depletionodozonelayer:The amount of ozone in the atmosphere began to drop sharply in the 1980's . This decrease has been linked to synthetic chemicals like cholorofluorocarbons ( CFC's ) which are used as refrigerants and in fire extinguishers.

Answer:    -0.0288 m/s^2

Explanation:

Let's suppose that the ferry decelerates at a constant rate A (deceleration is an acceleration in the opposite direction to the original motion of an object)

Then the acceleration equation of the ferry will be:

a(t) = -A

(the negative sign is because this acceleration is in the opposite direction with respect to the movement of the ferry)

To get the velocity equation of the ferry, we need to integrate with respect to the time, t, we will get:

v(t) = -A*t + v0

where v0 is the initial velocity of the ferry, v0 = 12m/s.

v(t) = -A*t + 12m/s

For the position equation of the ferry we need to integrate again over time:

p(t) = (-A/2)*t^2 + (12m/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial position of the ferry, in this case, it can be zero, because it will depend on where we put the origin on our coordinate axis.

then p0 = 0m

P(t) = (-A/2)*t^2 + (12m/s)*t

The ferry will come to rest at the moment when it's velocity is equal to zero, this will happen when:

v(t) = 0m/s = -A*t + 12m/s

We need to find the value of t.

A*t = 12m/s

t = (12m/s)/A

Now we can replace this in the position equation because we know that the ferry needs 2.5 km or 2500 meters to come to rest.

p(  (12m/s)/A) = 2500m =  (-A/2)*( (12m/s)/A)^2 + (12m/s)*((12m/s)/A)

2500m = (-72 m^2/s^2)/A + (144m^2/s^2)/A

2500m = (72 m^2/s^2)/A

2500m*A = (72 m^2/s^2)

A = (72 m^2/s^2)/2500m = 0.0288 m/s^2

and the acceleration of the ferry was -A, then the acceleration of the ferry is:

-0.0288 m/s^2
