An object accelerates 2.0 m/s when a force of 28 newtons is applied to it. What is the mass of
the object?

Which statement correctly describes a step-up transformer? a. it increases the amount of electric energy available. b. it increases the voltage of an electric current. c. it changes direct current into alternating current. d. it has more loops of wire in its primary coil.

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. in a typical strike, the chameleon's tongue accelerates at a remarkable 220 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms.
