Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up

from left to right and a force is applied to the left side of the left cube causing all three cubes to accelerate to the right at 2.0 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the force exerted on the middle cube by the left cube in this case

Answer:

24 Newtons

Explanation:

The force exerted in the middle cube needs to be enough to move the middle cube and the right cube with an acceleration of 2 m/s2.

The mass of those two cubes combined is 6 + 6 = 12 kg

So, using the following equation, we can find the force:

Force = mass * acceleration

Force = 12 * 2

Force = 24 Newtons

What mass of a material with density rho is required to make a hollow spherical shell having inner radius r1 and outer radius r2
Margarita [4]

Answer:

m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3  )

Explanation:

  • We have to make a hollow sphere of inner  radius r_1 and outer radius r_2.

Then the mass of the material required to make such a sphere would be calculated as:

Total volume of the spherical shell:

V_t=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_2^3

And the volume of the hollow space in the sphere:

V_h=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_1^3

Therefore the net volume of material required to make the sphere:

V=V_t-V_h

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)

  • Now let the density of the of the material be \rho.

<u>Then the mass of the material used is:</u>

m=\rho.V

m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3  )
