Explanation:

in my opinion I'd say it's gravity because it's making the book stay in it's one and only position pulling the book at the center of the desk

The work energy principle states that the change in kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object. If

sattari [20]

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{2gh}\ m/s$

Explanation:

From work energy theorem

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy

Lets take

m= mass of object

h=height from the ground surface

initial velocity of object = 0 m/s

The final velocity of object is v

Work done by gravitational force = m g . h

The final kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy

m g h = 1/2 m v² - 0

v² = 2 g h

$v=\sqrt{2gh}\ m/s$

An engine pulls a train of 20 freight cars, each having a mass of 4.900 × 104 kg, with a constant force. The cars move from rest

bixtya [17]

Answer:

The force with which the tenth car pulls the eleventh one is called tension and is equal to:

T=119715.91 N

Explanation:

The force (F) with which the tenth car pulls the eleventh one is called tension and its direction is the X-direction or horizontal. According to Newton's Second Law of motion:

$\sum F=ma$

That is, the force of the car is equal to the acceleration (a) times its mass (m). The acceleration is the change in the velocity divided by the time (i is for initial and f is for final).

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_f}$

Using Newton's second law:

To find the forces, you have to solve the equilibrium in X-direction:

$\sum F_x=T=ma_x$

Now you can substitute the accelertion in terms of velocity and time:

$\sumF_x=T=ma_x=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}$

Solve the equation using the data from the problem, remember that the mass of the object is 10 times the mass of one car because the 10th car has to pull all the other cars:

$T=m\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}=(10)*(4.900 \times 10^4 kg)(\frac{4.3 m/s}{17.60s})\\T=119715.91 N$
