A sled that has a mass of 8 kg is pulled at a 50 degree angle with a force of 20 N. The force of friction acting on the sled is

2.4 N. The free-body diagram shows the forces acting on the sled.
What is the acceleration of the sled and the normal force acting on it, to the nearest tenth?

1) a = 1.3 m/s2; FN = 63.1 N
2) a = 1.6 m/s2; FN = 65.6 N
3) a = 1.9 m/s2; FN = 93.7 N
4) a = 2.2 m/s2; FN = 78.4 N

As per the question the mass of sled[m] is given as 8 kg.

The fictional force[F_{f} ] is given as 2.4 N

A force[F_{p} ] of 20 N  was exerted on the sled at angle of 50^{0}

Resolving the force into horizontal and vertical components we get -

F_{h} =F_{p} cos\theta and F_{v} =F_{p} sin\theta

Here F_{h} is the horizontal component and F_{v} is the vertical component.

F_{h} =20*cos50   =12.85575219 N

Similarly F_{v} =20*sin50=15.32088886 N

From the free body diagram we get that sum of vertical components is zero as there is no motion in vertical direction.

Hence F_{N} +F_{p} sin\theta=mg where g is the acceleration due to gravity .

⇒F_{N} =mg-F_{p} sin50

 ⇒ F_{N} =8*9.8-15.32088886  [here value of g is 9.8 m/s^2]

                      =63.1 N

The net motion of the body is along the  forward  direction.

            Hence  F_{p} cos\theta -F_{f} =ma where a is the acceleration of the body.

              ⇒a=\frac{F_{p}cos\theta -F_{f}  }{m}

                     =\frac{12.85575219 -2.4}{8}

                      =1.30 m/s^2

Hence the option A is the right answer.

While driving, your car has an initial position of 3.2 m, an initial velocity of -8.4 m/s, and
KIM [24]

Answer:

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the car is 3.2 meters

The initial velocity is -8.4 m/s

The constant acceleration is 1.1 m/s²

We need to find the final position of the car at the time t = 1.5 seconds

The displacement <em>s</em> = final position - initial position

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}, where <em>u</em> is the initial velocity, <em>a</em> is the

constant acceleration and <em>t</em> is the time

So we can find the final velocity by using the rule:

final position - initial position = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

initial position = 3.2 meters , u = -8.4 m/s , a = 1.1 ²m/s , t = 1.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

final position - 3.2 = (-8.4)(1.5)+\frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.5)^{2}

final position - 3.2 = -12.6 + 1.2375

final position - 3.2 = -11.3625

add 3.2 for both sides

final position = -8.1625

<em>That means the car is at 8.1625 meters in opposite direction</em>

<em>The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters </em>

If there are 50 people per square kilometer in a city, and the area of the city is 1.5 × 10 square kilometers. What is the total
qaws [65]

Answer:

750 people

Explanation:

From the question,

Number of people in the city = population density×Area of the city

N = D×A.......................... Equagtion 1

Where N = Number of people in the city, D = population density, A = Area of the city.

Given: D = 50 people per square kilometer, A = 1.5×10 square kilometer.

Substitute into equation 1

N = 50(1.5×10)

N = 750 people.

Hence the total number of people in the city is 750 people.

Experts, ACE, Genius... can anybody calculate for the Reactions at supports A and B please? Will give brainliest! Given: fb = 30
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Support at Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

Support at Ay = 200 k-N

Explanation:

given:

fb = 300 k-N/m

fc = 100 k-N/m

D = 300 k-N

L ab = 6 m

L bc = 6 m

L cd = 6 m

To get the reaction A or C.

take summation of moment either A or C.

<em><u>Support Cy:</u></em>

∑ M at Ay = 0

      (( x1 * F ) + ( D * Lab ) + ( D * L bc + D * L cd )

Cy = -------------------------------------------------------------------

                                      ( L ab + L bc )

Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

<em><u>Support Ay:</u></em>

Since ∑ F = 0,           A + C - F - D = 0

                                   A = F  + D - C

                                  Ay = 200 k-N
