If a mountain goat starts a rock slide and the rocks crash down the slope 100 m. If the rocks reach the bottom in 5 s, then the acceleration of the rock would be 8 meters/second².

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object.

As given in the problem a mountain goat starts a rock slide and the rocks crash down the slope 100 m. If the rocks reach the bottom in 5 s,

initial velocity of rock = 0 m/s

displacement = 100 meters

time = 5 seconds

s = ut + 0.5at²

100 = 0 + 12.5a

a = 100/12.5

  = 8 meters/second²

Thus, the acceleration of the rock would be 8 meters/second².

A 3.0 kg box is suspended by a series of ropes as shown below. The tension force in the horizontal rope is -40 N. What is the te
Nitella [24]

Answer:

50 N

Explanation:

Let the force in the horizontal rope be F₁ and the force in the diagonal rope be F₂:

The total force in the horizontal and vertical directions must be zero, since the object is at rest and is not accelerating.

The horizontal component of the forces:

F₁ + F₂ = -40N + F₂ = 0

F₂ = 40N

The vertical component of the forces:

F₁ + F₂ - mg = 0 + F₂ - mg = 0

F₂ = mg

If I assume the gravitational constant g = 10 m/s²:

F₂ = (3 kg) * (10 m/s²) = 30N

Adding the horizontal and vertical components of the force F₂:

F₂ = √((40N)² + (30N)²) = 50N
