A horizontal pulling force, F, is applied to drag two boxes of mass m and M along a horizontal, frictionless surface. The boxes

are connected by an ideal rope and move together. How does the magnitude of the force F compare to the tension, T, in the connecting rope?

The magnitude of the force F is greater than the tension, T, in the connecting rope.

<h3>What is applied force?</h3>

Applied force is a type of force which is applied to an object by another object.

<h3>Net force on the boxes</h3>

F - T = ma

T = Ma

F - Ma = ma

F = Ma + ma

or

F = T + ma

From the equation above, the applied force must be greater than the tension in the rope for the boxes to  move.

Thus, the magnitude of the force F is greater than the tension, T, in the connecting rope.

Answer:

The average force has a magnitude 6524 N due north.

Explanation:

The average net force F = ma where m = mass of car = 1400 kg and a = acceleration.

a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of car = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest)

v = final velocity of car = 27 m/s due north and t = time of motion = 5.8 s

a = (27 m/s - 0 m/s)/5.8 s = 27 m/s ÷ 5.8 s = 4.66 m/s

Since the direction of the velocity change is the direction of the acceleration, the acceleration is 4.66 m/s due north.

The average force, F = ma = 1400 kg × 4.66 m/s = 6524 N

Since the acceleration is due north, the average force takes the direction of the acceleration.

So the direction of the average force is due north

The average force has a magnitude 6524 N due north.

yaroslaw [1]
The term you need to know is equilibrium. Technically it means that heat gained = heat lost. Normally in beginning chemistry classes the evidence for this condition is a stable temperature.
