A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects. When the interaction ceases, the two objects no longer experience the force. Forces only exist as a result of an interaction.
Answer:
Change in momentum is zero.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass (m) = 5000 kg
Time (t) = 1 h
Net force (F) = 0
Change in momentum =?
Force = Rate of change of momentum
0 = change in momentum
Change in momentum = 0
We can see from the above illustration that the net force is zero. Thus, the change in momentum is also zero.
Answer:
0 degrees
Explanation:
Let 
are two forces. The resultant of two forces acting on the same point is given by :
Where 
is the angle between two forces
When 
i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,
When 
i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,
When 
i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,
It is clear that the resultant of two forces acting on the same point simultaneously will be the greatest when the angle between them is 0 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.
I'll bite:
-- Since the sled's mass is 'm', its weight is 'mg'.
-- Since the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk, the force acting opposite to the direction it's sliding is (μk) times (mg) .
-- If the pulling force is constant 'F', then the horizontal forces on the sled
are 'F' forward and (μk · mg) backwards.
-- The net force on the sled is (F - μk·mg).
(I regret the visual appearance that's beginning to emerge,
but let's forge onward.)
-- The sled's horizontal acceleration is (net force) / (mass) = (F - μk·mg) / m.
This could be simplified, but let's not just yet.
-- Starting from rest, the sled moves a distance 's' during time 't'.
We know that s = 1/2 a t² , and we know what 'a' is. So we can write
s = (1/2 t²) (F - μk·mg) / m .
Now we have the distance, and the constant force.
The total work is (Force x distance), and the power is (Work / time).
Let's put it together and see how ugly it becomes. Maybe THEN
it can be simplified.
Work = (Force x distance) = F x (1/2 t²) (F - μk·mg) / m
Power = (Work / time) = <em>F (t/2) (F - μk·mg) / m </em>
Unless I can come up with something a lot simpler, that's the answer.
To simplify and beautify, make the partial fractions out of the
2nd parentheses:
<em> F (t/2) (F/m - μk·m)</em>
I think that's about as far as you can go. I tried some other presentations,
and didn't find anything that's much simpler.
Five points,ehhh ?
Answer:
A) The acceleration is zero
<em>B) The total distance is 112 m</em>
Explanation:
<u>Velocity vs Time Graph</u>
It shows the behavior of the velocity as time increases. If the velocity increases, then the acceleration is positive, if the velocity decreases, the acceleration is negative, and if the velocity is constant, then the acceleration is zero.
The graph shows a horizontal line between points A and B. It means the velocity didn't change in that interval. Thus the acceleration in that zone is zero.
A. To calculate the acceleration, we use the formula:
Let's pick the extremes of the region AB: (0,8) and (12,8). The acceleration is:
This confirms the previous conclusion.
B. The distance covered by the body can be calculated as the area behind the graph. Since the velocity behaves differently after t=12 s, we'll split the total area into a rectangle and a triangle.
Area of rectangle= base*height=12 s * 8 m/s = 96 m
Area of triangle= base*height/2 = 4 s * 8 m/s /2= 16 m
The total distance is: 96 m + 16 m = 112 m
