Can an object exert a force on itself?

1 answer:

5 0

No it can’t. The result of interaction is force and for interaction, we need two. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

When tightening a bolt, you push perpendicularly on a wrench with a force of 165 N at a distance of 0.140 m from the center of t

choli [55]

Answer:

Part a)

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

Part b)

$\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force$

Explanation:

As we know that torque is defined as the product of force and its perpendicular distance from reference point

so here we have

$\tau = \vec r \times \vec F$

now we have

$\tau = (0.140)(165)$

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

Part b)

Now we know the conversion as

1 meter = 3.28 foot

1 N = 0.225 Lb force

now we have

$\tau = 23.1 Nm$

$\tau = 23.1 (0.225 Lb)(3.28 foot)$

$\tau = 17.05 Foot pound force$

What is the rate of acceleration due to gravity on Earth?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Negative 9.8 meters per second squared

Explanation:

The negative is for the direction (down, towards the center of the earth). Often this can be estimated as -10 m/s^2 to make calculations easier.

A spring stretches 0.2 cm per newton of applied force. An object is suspended from the spring and a deflection of 3 cm is observ

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$m=1.53kg$

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:

$F=k*\Delta x$ (1)

F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.

The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:

1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm

The force applied is due to the weight

$F=mg$

We replace in (1):

$mg=k*\Delta x$

We solve the equation for m:

$m=k*\Delta x/g=5*3/9.81=1.53kg$
