A block of mass m = 2 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 200
N/m, and is set to oscillate on a friction-less horizontal surface. At time t = 0 its
position is X0 = 0 and its velocity is v0 = +5 m/s. If the displacement is a cosine
function, X(t)=A cos(wt+p), then which answer is correct about the oscillation
amplitude A and the phase constant, p.:

explanation:

the masses of the objects and the distance between them

this means that the temperature of both substances will be equal

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
