Your car and the trailer it is towing are initially at rest. you apply an acceleration of 1.75 m/s2 to get the vehicles moving.

the mass of your car is 1200 kg and the mass of the trailer is 540 kg. (a) determine the net force acting on the car.

The net force is defined as the vector sum of all the forces that are present in an object. The formula for net force is F=ma. Everything else cancels out like the force of gravity on the car, and the reactive force of the road surface, etc. It can be concluded that the force exerted by the trailer on the car is the same as that exerted by the car on the trailer. Given that the acceleration is 1.75 m/s^2, the car is 1200 kilograms, and the trailer is 540 kilograms. Thus, the net force acting on the car is equal to 21qkm/hr^2

In Example 2.7, we investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver, the jet comes in for a landing on sol
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) No.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for jet to stop

u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)

v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)

s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)

a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)

a) Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m

The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.

Two pianos each sound the same note simultaneously, but they are both out of tune. On a day when the speed of sound is 349 m/s,
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec

Explanation:

We have given speed of the sound v = 349 m/sec

Wavelength of piano A\lambda _A=0.766m

Wavelength of piano  B\lambda _B=0.776m

So frequency of piano A f_1=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.766}=455.61Hz

Frequency of piano B f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda _1}=\frac{349}{0.776}=449.74Hz

So beat frequency f = 455.61 - 449.74 = 5.87 Hz

So time period T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{5.87}=0.1703sec

So time period between the successive beats will be 0.1703 sec

A 46.0-kg box is being pushed a distance of 8.80 m across the floor by a force P whose magnitude is 171 N. The force P is parall
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

a) 1504.8 J

b) 991.76 J

c) 0J

d) 0J

Explanation:

(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

W_P=Px

P: applied force = 171N

x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m

you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

W_P=(171N)(8.80m)=1504.8J

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

W_f=F_fx=\mu N x=\mu Mg x

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250

M: mass of the box = 46.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

W_f=(0.250)(46.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(8.80m)=991.76J

(c) The Normal force is

N=Mg=(46.0kg)(9,8m/s^2)=450.8N

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

W_N=0J

(d) the same as before:

W_g=0J
