Ateam of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow ( the dogs have average masses of 19.0 kg, and the loaded sled with its rider has a mass of 210 kg. (a) calculate the acceleration of the dogs starting from rest if each dog exerts an average force of 185 n backward on the snow. (b) calculate the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.

Which statement best describes the direction of the buoyant force on any object? a. opposite the force of gravity b. in the same direction as the weight c. in the direction of motion of the object d. opposite the direction of motion of the object

Use the ratio form of kepler’s third law, = , and the data provided to determine the time it takes mars to orbit the sun. round your answer to the nearest tenth. earth’s orbital period = 1.0 earth year earth’s distance from the sun = 1.0 au mars’s distance from the sun = 1.5 au it takes mars about ⇒ 1.8 earth years to orbit the sun.
