Had to look for the missing details and here is my answer.

This question is based on Hazard City: Landslide Hazard Assessment. And based on the given illustration, how the construction of a new recreational path between the <span>railroad track and the river would influence the railroad stability is that it would make the railroad more vulnerable to landslide due to increasing slope. Hope this helps.</span>

A 6 kilogram block in outer space is moving at -100 m/s (to the left). It suddenly experiences three forces as shown below.
Alika [10]

Newton's second law and the kinematic relations allow to find the results for the questions about forces and the movement of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

 

Newton's second law establishes a relationship between the net force, the mass, and the acceleration of the body. In the special case that the acceleration is zero it is called the equilibrium condition.

B) They indicate a diagram of forces on the block, let's look for the components of the force that the block maintains with zero acceleration, in the attached we have a free-body diagram including the force applied to keep the system in equilibrium.

x-axis

      -10 + 12 sin 60 + Fₓ = 0

        Fₓ = 10- 12 sin 60 = -0.39 N

y-axis

       12 cos 60 - 6 + F_y = 0

        F_y = 6 - 12 cos 60 = 0 N

We can give the result of the force in two ways:

  • Form of coordinates F = -0.39 i ^ N
  • Form of module and angle.

Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the modulus.

       F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2 } \\F = \sqrt{0.39^2 +0^2}  

       F = 0.39N

We use trigonometry for the angle.

       tan \theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}

       tan θ=  0º

The component of the force is negative therefore this angle is in the second quadrant, to measure the angle from the positive side of the x axis in a counterclockwise direction.

        θ = 180 + θ'

        θ = 180 + 0

        θ = 180º

C) if the three forces can be moved and the maximum force occurs when they are all linear.

          10+ 6 + 6 + F = 0

          F = -24 N

D) if we maintain this force and eliminate the other three, the block stops, let's look for its acceleration.

          a = \frac{F}{m}  

          a = \frac{24}{6}  

         a =  4 m / s²

The acceleration is in the opposite direction of the initial velocity of the block v₀ = -100 m / s

If we use kinematic relations.

        v = v₀ - a t

Final velocity when stopped is zero

         t = \frac{0-v_o}{a}

         t = 100/4

         t = 25 s

In conclusion using Newton's second law and the kinematics relations we can find the results for the questions about the forces and the motion of the block are:

    B) the force applied to maintain the system is equilibrium is: F = 0.39 N with an angle of tea = 180º

    C) The maximum force is: F = 24 N

    D) The time to stop the block is: t = 25 s

On my science test, there is a bonus question that I want to get right. Why would it be a bad idea to skydive on the moon? Hint:
eduard

Answer:

Because there is no air resistance

Explanation:

When an object falls on Earth, there are essentially two forces acting on it:

- The force of gravity, downward, equal to the weight of the object:

W=mg

where m is the mass and g the acceleration due to gravity

- The air resistance, F, which acts upward, and whose magnitude is generally proportional to v, the speed of the object

When the object starts its fall, its initial speed is zero: v = 0, so the air resistance is also zero: F=0, and the object accelerates downward due to gravity.

However, as it accelerates downward, its speed increases, and so does the air resistance F. However, F is upward, opposite to the direction of motion, therefore it reduces the net acceleration of the object; at a certain point, the magnitude of the air resistance will become equal to the weight, so that

mg = F

and at that point, the net acceleration of the object will become zero: this means that the object will continue its fall at a constant velocity, called terminal velocity.

On the Moon instead, there is no air resistance: this means that for an object falling down, the speed keeps increasing due to the effect of gravity, and it will never reach a terminal value: therefore, the final velocity at the impact will be much higher than on the Earth, if we assume the two objects have been dropped from a very high altitude from the surface.

Can someone please help
Maru [420]

Answer: D

Explanation: because doing a yoga desk program is physical activity, 10k steps is pysical activity, riding a bike or walking/running is also physical activity. so it should be D, all of the above.

From the deepest to the surface, what are the parts of the earth's interior?
shepuryov [24]

The answer is A: Core --> Mantle --> Crust.

Core: The earth's core is the center of the earth, which would ultimately be the deepest. The core is made up of alloy, which is a mixture of many medals, such as iron and nickel.

Mantle: The earth's mantle is the layer between the earths crust and core. Often made of silicate rocks.

Crust: The earth's crust is the outer-most of the three options. Usually made of up different types of rocks.
