A person is trying to lift a crate that has a mass of 30 kg. The normal force of the floor is currently supplying 150N of force.

How much force is the person currently exerting?

Here when an object is placed on the level floor then in that case there are two forces on the object

1). Weight of object downwards (mg)

2). Normal force due to floor which will counterbalance the weight (N)

so when no force is applied on the box at that time normal force is counter balanced by weight.

Now here it is given that A person tried to lift the box upwards

So now there are two forces on the box

1). Applied force of person

2). Normal force due to ground

So now these two forces will counter balance the weight of the crate

So we can write an equation for force balance like

F_g = F_n + F_a

given that

F_g = mg

here

m = 30 kg and

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

F_n = 150 N

now from above equation

30*10 = 150 + F_a

F_a = 300 - 150 = 150 N

So force applied by the person must be 150 N

A heavy hall with a mass of 3.5 kg is observed to accelerate
LenKa [72]

Answer:

<h2>21 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 3.5 × 6

We have the final answer as

<h3>21 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Class II levers like ankles and wheelbarrows are useful because they provide mechanical advantage, by amplifying the input force
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The solution and the explanation are in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

According to the diagram that is in the attached image, the EFFORT force at point A and the load is at O point. The torque due to weight is:

TA = W * (a * cosθ)

The torque due to effort at C point is:

TC = E * (b * cosθ)

The net torque is equal to 0, we have:

Tnet = 0

W * (a * cosθ) - E * (b * cosθ) = 0

E=W\frac{a}{b}

From the figure, you can observe that a/b < 1, thus E < W
