For this case, the first thing we must do is define a reference system.
Suppose that the positive direction of the reference system is upward.
We have that the sum of forces in the vertical axis is given by:
Fy = Fp - Fg
Substituting values:
Fy = 5500 - 6000
Fy = - 500
The negative sign means that the direction of the force with respect to the defined coordinate system is downward.
Answer:
The net force is:
↓ 500N

Answer:
Final velocity = 7.677 m/s
KE before crash = 202300 J
KE after crash = 182,702.62 J
Explanation:
We are given;
m1 = 1400 kg
m2 = 4700 kg
u1 = 17 m/s
u2 = 0 m/s
Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;
m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v
Where v is final velocity after collision.
Plugging in the relevant values;
(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v
23800 = 3100v
v = 23800/3100
v = 7.677 m/s
Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J
Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J
Answer:
0.16Hz
Explanation:
wavelength (λ) = 125 meters
speed (V) = 20 m/s
frequency (F) = ?
Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one
second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.
So, apply the formula V = F λ
Make F the subject formula
F = V / λ
F = 20 m/s / 125 meters
F = 0.16 Hz
