Question

Derive, using newtons second law

m1 = 559.5g
m2 = 569.3g
ay = ?
g = ?

a_y=g((m_2-m_1)/(m_2+m_1 ))

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

convert the mass from g to kg

1 g = 0,001 kg

m1 =559,5 g = 5,595 kg

m2 = 569,3 g = 5,569 kg

Newtons second Law

F = m *a = m * g

g = 10 m/s^2

a_y = g ((m_2 - m_1) / (m_2+m_1))

a_y = 10 m/s^2 * ((5,569kg -5,595kg) / (5,569kg + 5,595kg))

a_y = 10 m/s^2 [(-0,026kg) / 11,164kg]

a_y = 10 m/s^2 (-0,0023)kg

a_y = - 0,023 kg m / s^2
