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

A split highway has a number of lanes for traffic. For traffic going in one direction, the radius for the inside of the curve is
Andrew [12]

Answer:

The correct one is that the force on B is half of the force on A

Explanation:

Because radius for the inside of the curve is half the radius for the outside and Car A travels on the inside while car B, travels at equal speed on the outside of the curve. Thus force on B will be half on A

A ball is thrown into the air by a baby alien on a planet in the system of Alpha Centauri with a velocity of 27 ft/s. Its height
Ahat [919]

Answer:

V_{3.01}=-93.2m/s

V_{3.005}=-93.1m/s

V_{3.002}=-93.04m/s

V_{3.001}=-93.02m/s

V_{3}=-93m/s

Explanation:

To calculate average velocity we need the position for both instants t0 and t1.

Now we will proceed to calculate all the positions we need:

Y_{3}=-99m/s

Y_{3.01}=-99.932m/s

Y_{3.005}=-99.4655m/s

Y_{3.002}=-99.18608m/s

Y_{3.001}=-99.09302m/s

Replacing these values into the formula for average velocity:

V_{3-3.01}=\frac{Y_{3.01}-Y_{3}}{3.01-3}=-93.2m/s

V_{3-3.005}=\frac{Y_{3.005}-Y_{3}}{3.005-3}=-93.1m/s

V_{3-3.002}=\frac{Y_{3.002}-Y_{3}}{3.005-3}=-93.04m/s

V_{3-3.001}=\frac{Y_{3.001}-Y_{3}}{3.001-3}=-93.02m/s

To know the actual velocity, we derive the position and we get:

V=27-40t = -93m/s

Coil the wire around the nail. Connect one end of the wire to the positive battery terminal. Connect the other end of the wire t
Ostrovityanka [42]

A).  No.  In fact, the longer you leave things hooked up like this, the weaker the battery becomes.

<em>B).  Yes !  </em>As long as everything stays hooked up like this, the nail is a magnet. (Until the battery finally dies of exhaustion.)

C).  No.

D).  I don't think so.  Never heard of this one.
