A 230 kg steel crate is being pushed along a cement floor. The force of friction is 480 N to the left and the applied force is 1

869 N to the right. What is the acceleration of the crate?

The acceleration of the steel crate, given the data from the question is 6.0 m/s²

<h3>How to determine the net force</h3>
  • Force to the left (Fբ) = 480 N
  • Force to the right (Fᵣ) = 1869 N
  • Net force (Fₙ) = ?

Fₙ = Fᵣ - Fբ

Fₙ = 1869 - 480

Fₙ = 1389 N

<h3>How to determine the acceleration</h3>
  • Mass (m) = 230 Kg
  • Net force (Fₙ) = 1389 N
  • Acceleration (a) = ?

Fₙ = ma

Divide both sides by m

a = Fₙ / m

a = 1389 / 230

a = 6.0 m/s²

A spherical helium filled balloon (B) with a hanging passenger cage being held by a single vertical cable (C) attached to Earth
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The tension is  T  = 4326.7 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  total mass is  m  =  200 \  kg

    The  radius is r = 5 \  m

     The  density of air is  \rho_a  =  1.225 \ kg/m^3

Generally the upward  force acting on the balloon is mathematically represented as

        F_N  =   T  + mg

=>     (\rho_a  *  V  *  g ) =   T  + mg

=>   T  =  (\rho_a  * V  *  g   )  - mg

Here V is the volume  of the spherical helium filled balloon which is mathematically represented as

      V  =  \frac{4}{3}  * \pi r^3

=>   V  =  \frac{4}{3}  * 3.142 *(5)^3

=>   V  = 523.67\  m^3

So

    T  = (1.225 *  523.67*  9.8 ) -  200 *  9.8

   T  = 4326.7 \  N

Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all __________ waves because they __________.
algol [13]

Answer:

a. mechanical; require a medium to travel through

Explanation:

Longitudinal, transverse and surface waves are types of mechanical waves. For example, within the longitudinal waves are the sound waves, which needs a medium to propagate like the air. This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum.

And an example of a transverse wave is the waves that form in the water when a rock is thrown (ripples), these waves need a medium (the water) to propagate.

On the other hand, electromagnetic waves such as light waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is why we can see the light of distant stars because their light travels through the vacuum until it reaches us.

So, the answer is:

Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all mechanical waves because they require a medium to travel through .

A 250 kg cart is at the top of a hill that is 32 m high, what is its potential energy?
atroni [7]

Answer:

<h2>80,000 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 250 × 10 × 32

We have the final answer as

<h3>80,000 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

n a downhill ski race, surprisingly, little advantage is gained by getting a running start. (This is because the initial kinetic
Annette [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) starting from rest , so u = o and initial kinetic energy = 0 .

Let mass of the skier = m

Kinetic energy gained = potential energy lost

= mgh = mg l sinθ

= m x 9.8 x 70 x sin 30

= 343 m

Total kinetic energy at the base = 343 m  + 0 = 343 m .

b )

In this case initial kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x m x 2.5²

= 3.125 m

Total kinetic energy at the base

= 3.125 m  + 343 m

= 346.125 m

c ) It is not surprising as energy gained due to gravitational force by the earth is enormous . So component of energy gained due to gravitational force far exceeds the initial kinetic energy . Still in a competitive event , the fractional initial kinetic energy may be the deciding factor .
