A 5 kg block is pulled across a table by a horizontal force of 4O N with a frictional force ot 8N pOsing the motion. Calculate the acceleration of the oject. 12 An ahia iddt

By Newton's 2nd law, m*a=sum_of_forces where m is the mass and a the acceleration. Here there are two forces in opposed directions.

Thus 5*a=40-8=32 therefore a=32/5=6.4m^s/2

the transfer of heat by electromagnetic radiation is called thermal radiation . it is usually carried out by electromagnetic waves in an energy range just below the visible spectrum, which is the infrared range.

so the answer would be radiation.

: )

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
