Two people are having a race pushing equal sized boxes up a hill. joe pushes the box up the hill in 10 seconds and cindy pushes

the box up the hill in 5 seconds. who is applying more pressure on the side of the box?

The person applying a greater pressure to the box is Cindy since it takes her a lesser  time to move the box up the hill.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The term pressure is defined as the force per unit area. WWe know that the magnitude of force applied is shown by the time taken to push the box up the hill.

Since Cindy pushes the box up the hill in only five seconds, it means that Cindy is applying a greater pressure to the box.

A+20 N force acts on a car and at the same time, a -30 N force acts on the
katovenus [111]

Answer:

-10 N, not balanced

Explanation:

Force is a vector quantity, so in order to find the net force on an object, we must use vector addition rule.

This means that if two forces acting on an object along the same line, we have to choose one direction as positive, and write the two forces with the correct sign.

In this problem, we have two forces acting along a line on the car:

- A first force of

F_1 = +20 N

- A second force of

F_2=-30 N

Therefore, the net force on the car is:

\sum F=F_1+F_2=+20 +(-30)=-10 N

Moreover, the net force on an object is said to be "balanced" if it is zero: in this case, it is not zero, so it is not balanced.

A ranger in a national park is driving at 52 km/h when a deer jumps onto the road 87 m ahead of the vehicle. After a reaction ti
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.23 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the ranger, u = 52 km/h = 14.44 m/s

Final speed of the ranger, v = 0 (as brakes are applied)

Acceleration of the ranger, a=-4\ m/s^2

Distance between deer and the vehicle, d = 87 m

Let d' is the distance covered by the deer so that it comes top rest. So,

d'=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}

d'=\dfrac{-(14.44)^2}{2\times -4}

d' = 26.06 m

Distance between the point where the deer stops and the vehicle is :

D=d-d'

D=87 - 26.06 = 60.94 m

Let t is the maximum reaction time allowed if the ranger is to avoid hitting the deer. It can be calculated as :

t=\dfrac{v}{D}

t=\dfrac{14.44}{60.94}

t = 0.23 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball is dropped from a rooftop 60m high. <br> How long is the ball in the air?
alina1380 [7]

Answer: 3.49 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equation of motion:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0 m is the final height of the ball

y_{o}=60 m is the initial height of the ball

V_{o}=0 m/s is the initial velocity (the ball was dropped)

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleratio due gravity

t is the time

Isolating t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}} (2)

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (60 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} (3)

Finally we find the time the ball is in the air:

t=3.49 s (4)
