No, we can not add the magnitudes of those two forces.

<h3>What is Gravitational Force?</h3>

An attractive force between masses is a gravitational force. According to Isaac Newton's second law, F = ma, a gravitational force generates an acceleration just like all other forces do. Remember that according to Newton's second law, a body will accelerate if there is a net force acting on it in an inertial frame of reference (a coordinate system travelling at a constant speed). According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, when two bodies, such as the Earth and the Sun, are in close proximity to one another, an attractive force naturally attracts them. This attraction results in an acceleration of the two objects.

mars1129 [50]

To solve this problem, we use the equation:

<span>d = (v^2  - v0^2) / 2a</span>

 

where,

d = distance of collapse

v0 = initial velocity = 101 km / h = 28.06 m / s

v = final velocity = 0

a = acceleration = - 300 m / s^2

 

d = (-28.06 m / s)^2 / (2 * - 300 m / s^2)

<span>d = 1.31 m</span>

As a mass on a spring moves farther from the equilibrium position, how do the velocity, acceleration, and force change
Umnica [9.8K]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

m =  the mass of the object
x = the distance of the object from the equilibrium position at time t.
v = the velocity of the object at time t
a = the acceleration of the object at time t
A =  the amplitude ( the maximum distance) of the mass from the equilibrium
        position

The oscillatory motion of the object (without damping) is given by
x(t) = A sin(ωt)
where
ω =  the circular frequency of the motion
T =  the period of the motion so that ω = (2π)/T

The velocity and acceleration are respectively
v(t) = ωA cos(ωt)
a(t) = -ω²A sin(ωt)

In the equilibrium position,
x is zero;
v is maximum;
a is zero.

At the farthest distance (A) from the equilibrium position,
x is maximum;
v is zero;
a is zero.

In the graphs shown, it is assumed (for illustrative purposes) that
A = 1 and T = 1.
