A block of ice(m = 14.0 kg) with an attached rope is at rest on a frictionless surface. You pull the block with a horizontal for

nadezda [96]

Answer:

a) The weight and the normal force of the block has a magnitude of 137.298 newtons and the pull force exerted on the block has a magnitude of 98 newtons.

b) The final speed of the block of ice is 9.8 meters per second.

Explanation:

a) We need to calculate the weight, normal force from the ground to the block and the pull force. By 3rd Newton's Law we know that normal force is the reaction of the weight of the block of ice on a horizontal.

The weight of the block ( $W$ ), measured in newtons, is:

$W = m\cdot g$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the block of ice, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that $m = 14\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the magnitudes of the weight and normal force of the block of ice are, respectively:

$N = W = (14\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$N = W = 137.298\,N$

And the pull force is:

$F_{pull} = 98\,N$

The weight and the normal force of the block has a magnitude of 137.298 newtons and the pull force exerted on the block has a magnitude of 98 newtons.

b) Since the block of ice is on a frictionless surface and pull force is parallel to the direction of motion and uniform in time, we can apply the Impact Theorem, which states that:

$m\cdot v_{o} +\Sigma F \cdot \Delta t = m\cdot v_{f}$ (2)

Where:

$v_{o}$ , $v_{f}$ - Initial and final speeds of the block, measured in meters per second.

$\Sigma F$ - Horizontal net force, measured in newtons.

$\Delta t$ - Impact time, measured in seconds.

Now we clear the final speed in (2):

$v_{f} = v_{o}+\frac{\Sigma F\cdot \Delta t}{m}$

If we know that $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $m = 14\,kg$ , $\Sigma F = 98\,N$ and $\Delta t = 1.40\,s$ , then final speed of the ice block is:

$v_{f} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\frac{(98\,N)\cdot (1.40\,s)}{14\,kg}$

$v_{f} = 9.8\,\frac{m}{s}$

The final speed of the block of ice is 9.8 meters per second.

An object weighs 10N on earth .what is the objects weight on a planet one tenth the earths mass and one half its radius?

earnstyle [38]

We know, weight = mass * gravity
10 = m * 9.8
m = 10/9.8 = 1.02 Kg

Now, Let, the gravity of that planet = g'
g' = m/r² [m,r = mass & radius of that planet ]
g' = M/10 / (1/2R)² [M, R = mass & radius of Earth ]
g' = 4M / 10R²
g' = 2/5 * M/R²
g' = 2/5 * g
g' = 2/5 * 9.8
g' = 3.92

Weight on that planet = planet's gravity * mass
W' = 3.92 * 1.02
W' = 4 N

In short, Your Answer would be 4 Newtons

Hope this helps!

Your friend claims that weather predictions are just guesses. What would you say to change your friend's mind?

VashaNatasha [74]

To change my friends mind, after they've already said weather predictions are just guesses, I would say they are correct, but not only to they use guesses to predict what will happen, but they also, before hand, use atmospheric tools. They then predict from the data collected. They do both.

Which of the following is not an example of natural climate change?

wlad13 [49]

(c) is the correct choice.

El Nino (a), Earth's orbit (b), and solar energy output (d) are all "natural" occurrences. You can't do a thing aboutum.

Fossil fuels ... or, more precisely, humanity's use of vast quantities of fossil fuels as a convenient source of huge quantities of energy ... and the subsequent increase of Carbon Dioxide in the planet's atmosphere, is not the result of "natural" processes. It's the result of human efforts to <em>alter and control</em> Nature, through <em>artificial</em> processes.
