Your ideal scenario describes the near-perfect vacuum and weightlessness of space. As you said, a one-kilogram mass will accelerate at one meter per second squared if a net force of one newton is applied to it. But you wish to know what happens under real-world conditions, such as the existence of friction (air resistance, rolling friction, and sliding friction) and gravity. If the motion is in the horizontal plane and at low speeds, air resistance is negligible. Friction between surfaces and rolling friction are significant, however, and will act against any force used to accelerate an object. Gravity plays a role in the consideration of friction, as well, inasmuch as the frictional force is proportional to the Normal Force, which is related to the object's weight.1 For motion in two directions, such as the path of a kicked ball or the trajectory of a bullet fired from a gun, air resistance plays a large role as does the acceleration of gravity. Friction and the effects of gravity play a major role in calculations involving the motion in the vertical direction, whereas the acceleration of gravity plays no role in the calculations of the motion in the horizontal direction.2Basically, keep in mind that weight is a force directed downward. When determining the net force acting on an object, its weight is just one of the forces acting on it. 1. For an object resting on a flat surface with zero incline, the Normal Force is equal and opposite to the object's weight (W = mg). The frictional force is calculated to be uN, where u (the Greek letter mu) is the coefficient of friction. The frictional force opposes the direction of motion. For objects on an inclined plane, the Normal force is equal to W*cos(theta), where theta is the angle of incline. 2. Weight is a force perpendicular (orthogonal) to horizontal motion and, hence, can have no effect upon it.

∙ 16y agoIn the presence of gravity, you would need to consider the weight of the mass by adding the force due to gravity acting on it (F = m*g). Friction would add an opposing force that affects the acceleration of the mass. To calculate the motion with these considerations, you would use Newton's second law (F = ma) and include the forces due to gravity and friction in your calculations.
Not enough information. But basically, you need to use Newton's Second Law: you need to divide the force by the mass of the yo-yo.
Can you please provide more details about what you would like to calculate?
To calculate the surface area to volume ratio, simply divide the surface area of the object by its volume. This ratio is commonly used in science to understand how efficiently an object exchanges materials with its environment, with a higher ratio indicating better surface area for exchange relative to its volume.
To find the final de Broglie wavelength, you can use the equation λ = h/p, where λ is the wavelength, h is Planck's constant, and p is the momentum of the electron. The momentum can be calculated as p = √(2mE), where m is the mass of the electron and E is the kinetic energy acquired from the potential difference. Find the final speed of the electron using the equation v = √(2eV/m), where e is the elementary charge. Finally, use the speed to calculate the final momentum and plug it into the de Broglie wavelength formula.
The same way you calculate the atomic mass of other elements.

an object uniformly accerlerates over a distance of 100 m in 20 seconds. calculate the acceleration.
If the skater's initial speed is 0 m/s and the skater accelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s^2 for a certain time, the final speed can be calculated using the formula: final speed = initial speed + (acceleration * time). If a specific time is given, we can plug in the values to calculate the final speed.
To calculate how far the car travels while accelerating, you would need to use the kinematic equation: distance = (initial velocity × time) + (0.5 × acceleration × time^2). Plug in the values of the initial velocity, final velocity, and acceleration into the formula to find the distance traveled.

Since , V = u + at, we get , a = v - u /t = 402.3 - 0 /9.013 = 44.6355264617 ms-2 Therefore, acceleration = 44.6355264617 ms-2

Because unit costs are computed by departments or processes at fixed time intervals.
Some electrical devices that protect our environment include solar panels and computers. Solar panels collect power from the sun while computers help calculate efficient ways to operate equipment.
Measured refers to data collected through observation or experimentation, while calculated involves using mathematical equations or models to derive values based on known parameters. Measured values are obtained directly from experiments, whereas calculated values are determined through mathematical manipulation.
Two methods of producing dynamic pressure are through the use of a venturi tube, which accelerates fluid flow and increases its velocity, resulting in higher dynamic pressure; and through the use of a pitot tube, which measures the impact pressure of a moving fluid and can be used to calculate dynamic pressure.
