Answer:
180 N
Explanation:
Use Newton's second law, F = ma.
m = 4.5 kg; a = 40 m/s/s
F = (4.5)(40) = 180 N
Answer:
4N downward
Explanation:
the 16N left and right cancel each other out, so you are left with the 4N downward.
The faster car behind is catching up/closing the gap/gaining on
the slow truck in front at the rate of (90 - 50) = 40 km/hr.
At that rate, it takes (100 m) / (40,000 m/hr) = 1/400 of an hour
to reach the truck.
(1/400 hour) x (3,600 seconds/hour) = 3600/400 = <em>9 seconds</em>, exactly
