____ [38]1 year ago
4 0

Explanation:

formula for force is:

force=mass × acceleration

but in case of friction

force =coefficient of friction × Normal Reaction

F. = u × R

U = F/R

but when placed horizontally

R= M×G

M=mass=60kg

G=Gravity(10m/s or 9.8m/s)

F=140N

U=140/60×10

U=140/600

U=0.2333333333

approximately to 3 significant figures

U=0.233

if i am correct rate it 5 star

If you pull up on a bucket with a tension force of 15 N and the bucket has a weight of 15 N, what is the net force acting on the
fredd [130]

Answer:

F = 0 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must perform a summation of forces in the direction of the vertical axis. Where the positive force is that of the tension of the upward force, while the force exerted by the weight is directed downward with a negative sign.

ΣF = 0

15 - 15 + F = 0

F = 0 [N]

A hammer of mass m falls from rest off of a roof and drops a height H onto your head.
belka [17]
For conservation of energy we have to:
 mgH=mv²/2 
 Clearing
<span> v=sqrt(2gH)
 Then, by definition 
</span><span> F=Δp/Δt= Δ(mv)/ Δt=m Δ(v)/Δt= 
</span> =m[sqrt(2gH)-0]/Δt= m[sqrt(2gH)]/ Δt
 the answer is
 F=m[sqrt(2gH)]/ Δt
