A box with a mass of 2 kg only has four forces acting on it: One force of 16 N due East. One force of 24 N due South. One force

of 16 N due West. One force of 18 N due North. What is the magnitude of the box's acceleration, in m/s2

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is 3 m/s2.

Explanation:

  • The force on the object is acting along the four directions which are perpendicular to each other.
  • Since the north and south directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along north-south direction is (24-18)=6 N.
  • Since the east and west directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along east-west direction is (16-16)=0 N.
  • Therefore the magnitude of the net force on the object is 6 N
  • By Newton's second law, the force F on the object is given by the formula F=ma.
  • Here m= 2kg, therefore 6 =(2)a which gives a = 3 m/s2.

Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is 3 m/s^2.

Explanation:

The net force along North-South direction is 18-24=-6 N.

The net force along East-West direction is 16-16=0 N

The net magnitude of force is square root of (-6)^2+0^2 which is 6 N.

By Newton's Second law,

Force F=ma

Therefore acceleration a=F/m

                                       a=6/2

                                       a=3 m/s^2

HELP!!! I have no idea how to calculate this.

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the kinematics of a body.

Since, we know that Velocity = Distance / time

hence, V = 20/5 = 4 m/s

hence the velocity of the RC car is 4 m/s westwards direction.

What was done to test if Comets are responsible for 1/2 the Earth's water?
My name is Ann [436]

✯Hello✯

↪  A satellite was crashed into a comet (on purpose of course)

↪  When it crashed a huge amount of water gushed out

↪  It was over hundreds of thousands of litres

↪  These proved that most of the water came from Comets for the world's first oceans
