Answer:
Fnet = 0
Explanation:
- Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
- According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
- This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:
- In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:
⇒ 169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N (3)
- This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
- Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47 N (4)
The height of the building is 53.4 m (projectile motion)
Explanation:
The motion of the ball is a projectile motion, so it follows a parabolic path which consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction
- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction
First of all, we consider the horizontal motion, which is a uniform motion at constant speed. The equation that gives the horizontal distance travelled is:
where:
is the horizontal velocity of the ball, which is constant since there are no forces in this direction
d = 165 m is the horizontal distance travelled by the ball
Solving for t, we find the time of flight:
Now we analyze the vertical motion: it is an accelerated motion, we can use the suvat equation
where
s is the vertical displacement, which is the height of the building
u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the ball
t = 3.3 s is the time of flight
is the acceleration of gravity
Solving for s, we find the height of the building:
