Х Understand: force, mass, and acceleration
A student is frustrated with his physics homework and pushes his textbook toward the edge of his desk. The
student applies a net force of 4.5 N to the 1.5 kg textbook.
Calculate the magnitude of the textbook's acceleration.
Your answer should have two significant figures.

The sun’s mass is 2.0×10^ 30 kg, its radius is 7.0×10 5 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. if the sun should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 3.5×10 3 km, what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the sun both before and after?

Ahanging spring stretches by 35.0 cm when an object of mass 450 g is hung on it at rest. in this situation, we define its position as x = 0. the object is pulled down an additional 18.0 cm and released from rest to oscillate without friction. what is its position x at a moment 84.4 s later? express your answer in cm.

One soccer player (a) is moving at 4 km/h when she kicks the ball while another soccer player (b) is moving at 8 km/h. what statement accurately compares their kinetic energy if they have the same mass? a) both soccer players have the same kinetic energy. b) player b has twice the kinetic energy of player a. c) player b has four times the kinetic energy of player a. d) their kinetic energy can't be compared without knowing their mass.
