The magnitude of the net force that the atmosphere applies to the roof when the outside pressure drops suddenly is 1.9 x 10⁵ N.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area.

Pressure p = Force/Area

Given is a house has a roof (colored gray) with the dimensions shown in the drawing. The outside pressure drops suddenly by 13.2 mm of mercury, before the pressure in the attic can adjust.

The pressure difference ΔP = 13.2 mm of Hg

The length of the roof l = 14.5m

the breadth of the roof h = 4.21m

The force exerted by pressure is

Force, F = P x A

= (13.2 mm of Hg) [(133 N/m²) /1 mm of Hg ](14.5 x 4.21)

= 107,170.6 N

Then the net vertical force

Fnet = 2F cos30

Fnet = 2 ( 107,170.6) cos30

Fnet = 185625 N

Fnet =1.9 x 10⁵ N

The direction of the force is downwards, since the horizontal components of the forces cancel each other.

Hence, magnitude of the net force is 1.9 x 10⁵ N

Laser transmissions travel at a higher speed than the radio waves true or false

uranmaximum [27]

<span>False. Laser transmissions and radio waves are both forms of electromagnetic radiation. Both travel at approximately 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second. This is the case because wavelength and frequency are directly proportional to this value. Although laser light has a shorter wavelength than radio waves, it will travel at the same speed because the frequency will be greater.</span>

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proport

netineya [11]

Answer:

$[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$

Explanation:

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proportional to its mass m. The mathematical expression for the second law of motion is given by :

F = m × a

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration due to gravity

We need to find the dimensions of force. The dimension of force m and a are as follows :

$[m]=[M]$

$[a]=[LT^{-2}]$

So, the dimension of force F is, $[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Newton’s Laws of Motion are absolute in classical physics. One example that uses all three laws simultaneously is the firing of

Debora [2.8K]

I think that by "Classical physics" is meant low speed things. By low speed, I think is meant speed far below very roughly half the speed of light, so that Relativistic, special or general, effects can be ignored. Or at least it is hoped that they can be ignored.
Fire extinguishers and rockets get propelled by forcing out large amounts of material (gases under very high pressure) through a nozzle, and the RECOIL from that propels something forward. So, if the action is the ejection of material, the reaction (recoil) is the ejector moving along the same line in the other direction. And that's an example of Newton's third law.
Given a propulsion system, the magnitude of the force recoiling on the ejector will change the momentum of the ejector, often written as the equation F=ma where F is the force, m is the mass being accelerated, and a being the acceleration.
Just as something will stay still until it is moved - inertia - so once set in uniform motion in a straight line, the thing will continue in that motion, theoretically for ever or until something alters its momentum. Newton's first law is to the effect of "every body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless acted on by a resultant external force". Which, I think, is where the concept of inertia stems from.
I think that the above mostly tcuches on the 3 laws.Any more help needed, please ask.

SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!! Indicate the reasons why the centripetal acceleration (and centripetal force) always point to the center

maxonik [38]

Well we know the correct answer cannot be "a" bcause velocity is tangent to the circlular path of an object experienting centripical motion. Velocity DOES NOT point inward in centripical motion.

we know the correct answer cannot be "b" because "t" stands for "time" which cannot point in any direction. so, time cannot point toward the center of a circle and therefore this answer must be incorrect.

I would choose answer choice "c" because both force and centripical acceleration point toward the center of the circle.

I do not think answer choice "d" can be correct because the velocity of the mass moves tangent to the circle. velocity = (change in position) / time. Therefore, by definition the mass is moving in the direction of the velocity which does not point to the center of the circle.

does this make sense? any questions?
