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

2. While standing near a bus stop, a student hears a distant horn beeping. The frequency emitted by the horn is 440 Hz. The bus
jarptica [38.1K]

Given Information:

Frequency of horn = f₀ = 440 Hz

Speed of sound = v = 330 m/s

Speed of bus = v₀ = 20 m/s

Answer:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student = 468.4 Hz

Explanation:

There are 3 cases in this scenario:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

Let us explore each case:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student:

Student will hear the same frequency emitted by the horn that is 440 Hz.

f = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330+20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 350 )

f = 440 ( 0.943 )

f = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330-20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 310 )

f = 440 ( 1.0645 )

f = 468.4 Hz

A 5000 kg open train car is rolling on frictionless rails at 22 m/s when it starts pouring rain. A few minutes later, the car’s
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

500 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

The mass of a open train car, M = 5000 kg

Speed of open train car, V = 22 m/s

A few minutes later, the car’s speed is 20 m/s

We need to find the mass of water collected in the car. It is based on the conservation of momentum as follows :

initial momentum = final momentum

Let m is final mass

MV=mv

m=\dfrac{MV}{v}\\\\m=\dfrac{5000\times 22}{20}\\\\=5500\ kg

Water collected = After mass of train - before mass of train

= 5500 - 5000

= 500 kg

So, 500 kg of water has collected in the car.
