Answer:

1.8 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are four forces:

Normal force Fn up.

Weight force mg down.

Applied force F to the east.

Friction force Fn μ to the west.

Sum the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

Fn − mg = 0

Fn = mg

Sum the forces in the x direction:

F − Fn μ = ma

F − mg μ = ma

a = (F − mg μ) / m

a = (12 N − 6 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.15) / 6 kg

a = 0.53 m/s²

Given:

Δx = 3 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 0.53 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (0.53 m/s²) (3 m)

v = 1.8 m/s

A car has a mass of 1000 kg and accelerates at 2 m/s2. What net force is exerted on the car?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

1000N

Explanation:

Based on force=mass*acceleration, if the acceleration is constant at 2 metres per second squared, 1,000kg*2m/s^2=2,000N of force.

If the acceleration steadily increases to 2m/s^2 in 20 seconds, take the average which is 1m/s^2 therefore force=1,000N

What force is acting on a 2 kg apple falling on the Earth (g=10)
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

An apple in free fall accelerates toward the Earth with a free fall acceleration, g. The force of the apple on the Earth also causes the Earth to accelerate toward the falling apple. By Newton's Third Law, the force of the Earth on the apple is exactly equal and opposite to the force of the apple on the Earth. By Newton,s Second law, the force of the Earth on the apple is equal to the mass of the apple times g , the accelerations due to gravity. And, the force of the the apple on the Earth is equal to the mass of the Earth times the acceleration of the Earth toward the apple. In conclusion, the magnitude of the forces are equal, or

F ( apple on the Earth) = F( the Earth on the apple) or

M( mass of the earth) x a( the acceleration of the earth toward the apple) = m(mass of the apple) x g( the acceleration of the apple toward the Earth) or

a = (m/M) g
