A boy who exerts a 300-N force on the ice of a skating rink is pulled by his friend with a force of 75 N, causing the boy to acc

elerate across the ice. If drag and the friction from the ice apply a force of 5 N on the boy, what is the magnitude of the net force acting on him?

Answer:

70 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the boy.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

A 300 N normal force pushing up,

A 75 N applied force pulling right,

and a 5 N friction force pushing left.

The boy's acceleration in the y direction is 0, so the net force in the y direction is 0.

The net force in the x direction is 75 N − 5 N = 70 N.

A swimming pool is 4.0 m in depth; a swimmer at this depth feels discomfort in the ear. Calculate the net force on a 0.50-cm-dia
Mashcka [7]

The net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum is mathematically given as

F= 0.76969 N

<h3>What is the net force on a 0.50-cm-diameter eardrum?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Pressure is  mathematically given as

P = ρgh

Therefore

P= 1000*9.8*4

P= 39200 Pa

Where

A= pi*(0.005/2)^2

Generally, the equation for Net force is  mathematically given as

F = PA

F= 39200 *( pi*(0.005/2)^2)

F= 0.76969 N

In conclusion, The net force is

F= 0.76969 N

1) How is the temperature of a gas related to the kinetic energy of its particles?
dlinn [17]
The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to thetemperature. An increase intemperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. Allgases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy. Lightergas molecules move faster than heavier molecules.

Examine the symbols below:
iris [78.8K]

Answer: Symbol A

Explanation:

The four symbols described here represent:

- Symbol A shows two dots and a line draw from one not connected to the other.  --> this is an open switch. A switch is component of a circuit that is used to open/close the circuit in order to interrupt/allow the flow of current through the circuit. In this case, the switch is open, since the line does not connect the second dot.

- Symbol B shows two dots and a line draw from one connected to the other.  --> this is the symbol used to represent the switch when it is closed, so it is a closed switch.

- Symbol C shows vertical lines in the pattern long, short, long, and short with a plus and minus symbol on it. --> this symbol represents a battery, which consists of two or more cells and provides the electromotive force that pushes the electrons along the circuit.

Therefore, the correct symbol representing the open switch is

Symbol A
