Question

jenny always applies the same force to her bike when she begins a ride. order the magazines to show the size of the acceleration jennys bike will have at the beginning of each ride. larger acceleration

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second law

Newton's second law is \(F = ma\), where \(F\) is force, \(m\) is mass, and \(a\) is acceleration. Since \(F\) is constant, \(a=\frac{F}{m}\). So, acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.

Step2: Compare the masses

The masses of the magazines are: news (\(m_{news}=3\) kg), fashion (\(m_{fashion} = 1\) kg), entertainment (\(m_{entertainment}=5\) kg), digest (\(m_{digest}=2\) kg), catalog (\(m_{catalog}=6\) kg).

Since \(a=\frac{F}{m}\) ( \(F\) is constant), the smaller the mass \(m\), the larger the acceleration \(a\).

Ordering the masses from smallest to largest: \(m_{fashion}

Step3: Determine the order of acceleration

Using the inverse - proportionality \(a=\frac{F}{m}\), the order of acceleration (from largest to smallest) is the reverse order of the mass order.

So the order of acceleration (largest to smallest) is: fashion, digest, news, entertainment, catalog

Answer:

fashion, digest, news, entertainment, catalog
