Two skaters, a man and a woman, are standing on ice. Neglect any friction between the skate blades and the ice. The mass of the

man is 95 kg, and the mass of the woman is 51 kg. The woman pushes on the man with a force of 60 N due east. Determine the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of (a) the man and (b) the woman

Answer:

a₁ = 0.63 m/s²  (East)

a₂ = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

Explanation:

m₁ = 95 Kg

m₂ = 51 Kg

F = 60 N

a₁ = ?

a₂ = ?

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the man we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = m₁*a₁         ⇒      60 N = 95 Kg*a₁    

⇒  a₁ = (60N / 95Kg) = 0.63 m/s²  (⇒)  East

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the woman we apply

∑Fx = m*a   (⇒)

F = -m₂*a₂         ⇒      60 N = -51 Kg*a₂    

⇒  a₂ = (60N / 51Kg) = -1.18 m/s²  (West)

For every case we apply Newton’s 3 d Law

What would be the magnitude of the electric field 0.75 m from a 0.63 C master charge and what would be the force on a 0.50 C tes
bagirrra123 [75]

The magnitude of the electric field on the master charge is 1.008 x 10¹⁰ N/C, and the force on the test charge is 5.04 x 10⁹ N.

<h3>Electric field on the master charge</h3>

E = kq/r²

where;

  • q is magnitude of master charge
  • r is distance of separation
  • k is Coulomb's constant

E = (9 x 10⁹ x 0.63)/(0.75²)

E = 1.008 x 10¹⁰ N/C

<h3>Force on the test charge</h3>

F = Eq

where;

  • E is electric field
  • q is the test charge

F = (1.008 x 10¹⁰) x (0.5)

F = 5.04 x 10⁹ N

Thus, the magnitude of the electric field on the master charge is 1.008 x 10¹⁰ N/C, and the force on the test charge is 5.04 x 10⁹ N.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

work done will be equal to 305.05 J

Explanation:

We have given force exerted F = 45 N

Angle with the horizontal \Theta =41^{\circ}

Distance moved due to exerted force d = 9.1 m

Work done is equal to W=Fcos\Theta \times d , here F is force \Theta is angle with horizontal and d is distance moved due to force

So work done W=45\times cos41^{\circ}\times 9.1=309.05J

So work done will be equal to 305.05 J

An object experiences a net acceleration to the left. Which of the following statements about this object are true? There may be
dedylja [7]

Answer:

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude

Explanation:

When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.

From Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of the object is given as;

a = ∑F / m

a = -F / m

The negative value of "a" indicates acceleration to the left

where;

∑F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

At a constant force, F = ma ⇒ m₁a₁ = m₂a₂

If the mass of the object was doubled, m₂ = 2m₁

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (m₂)

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (2m₁)

a₂ = ¹/₂(a₁)

Therefore, the following can be deduced from the acceleration of this object;

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude
