Answer

A. the acceleration increases

step by step explanation:

according to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is dependent on the force exerted on the body and the mass of the body.

which means, if the force increases the acceleration of the body also increases and the mass of the body is increased, then, the acceleration of the body reduces

A force of 1.00 x 10^2 pounds acts at an angle of 60.0° to the x-axis. (The force is accurate to 3 significant figures.) What ar
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Fx= 50.0 Pounds : Components of the force along the x-axis

Fy= 86.6 Pounds : Component of the force along the y-axis

Explanation:

Conceptual Analysis

To find the components (Fx, Fy) of the total force (F), we apply the trigonometric concepts for a right triangle, where the perpendicular sides of the triangle are the components (Fx, Fy) of the force (F), the hypotenuse (h) is the magnitude of the total force F and β is the angle that forms the horizontal component with the hypotenuse.

Formulas

cos β : x/h  :    x: side adjacent to the β angle  h: hypotenuse  (1)

sin β = y/h  :    y: side opposite to the β angle  h: hypotenuse  (2)

Known Data

Known data

F= 1.00 * 10² pounds  = 100 pounds :  magnitude of total force

β =  60.0° to the x-axis. : Angle that forms the force with the x-axis

Problem Development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate horizontal component (Fx)

cos β :Fx/F

Fx= F cosβ  = 100*cos 60° = 50.0 Pounds

We apply the formula 2 to calculate vertical component (Fy)

sin β = Fy/F

Fy= F sinβ = 100*sin 60° = 86.6 Pounds

The free-body diagram below represents the force of several vehicles driving across a bridge. Assume that the bridge is in stati
krek1111 [17]

In order to calculate the unknown reaction force, we need to know that the sum of forces pointing down is equal the sum of the forces pointing up, so all forces will be in equilibrium.

So we have:

\begin{gathered} 17800+150000+13200=121000+x \\ 181000=121000+x \\ x=181000-121000 \\ x=60000 \end{gathered}

The acceleration due to gravity is lower on the Moon than on Earth. Which of the following is true about the mass and weight of
Naya [18.7K]

Mass is the same, weight is less

<h3>What is the Weight and mass on Moon ?</h3>

As we know that the mass of the object is the measurement of the quantity of the matter that is present in it

So here we can say that if the mass of the object is m then its total quantity of the matter that is present in it is given as

mass = (density) × (volume)

Now for the weight of the object is defined as the force of gravity due to planet

Fg = mg

so the weight of the object is depending on the acceleration due to gravity of the planet

As we know that the gravity of moon is smaller than the gravity of the earth so here weight on the moon will be smaller than the weight on the Earth

Two massless bags contain identical bricks, each brick having a mass M. Initially, each bag contains four bricks, and the bags m
stepladder [879]

Answer: F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

Where:

F is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

G is the universal gravitation constant.

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both bodies.

r is the distance between both bodies

In this case we have two situations:

1) Two bags with masses 4M and 4M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{1} on each other:

F_{1}=G\frac{(4M)(4M)}{r^2}   (1)

F_{1}=G\frac{16M^2}{r^2}   (2)

F_{1}=16\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (3)

2) Two bags with masses 2M and 6M mutually exerting a gravitational attraction F_{2} on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):

F_{2}=G\frac{(2M)(6M)}{r^2}   (4)

F_{2}=G\frac{12M^2}{r^2}   (5)

F_{2}=12\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (6)

Now, if we isolate \frac{GM^2}{r^2} from (3):

\frac{F_{1}}{16}=\frac{GM^2}{r^2}   (7)

Substituting \frac{GM^2}{r^2}  found in (7) in (6):

F_{2}=12(\frac{F_{1}}{16})   (8)

F_{2}=\frac{12}{16}F_{1}   (9)

Simplifying, we finally get the expression for F_{2}  in terms of F_{1} :

F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}

Explain how energy from the Sun created music.
elixir [45]

-- Energy from the sun was absorbed by grass, grain, and hops, making it possible for them to grow.

-- The grass was eaten by livestock, and turned into stored beef energy.

-- The grain was harvested, pounded into flour, baked, and turned into stored bread energy.

-- The hops were harvested, soaked, and turned into stored beer energy.

-- Johannes Brahms ate beef, which his body turned into brain and muscle energy.  Ludwig van Beethoven drank beer, which his body turned into energy and inspiration.  John Phillip Sousa ate bread, which his body turned into leg energy to march with.

-- All of these individuals, and a lot of others, composed music which nobody had ever heard before, using the solar energy they absorbed from the stuff that they ate and drank.
