A 4.2 kg sled is being pulled along a snow-covered road with a rope that exerts a horizontal force of 6.0 n and, at that moment,

is accelerating at 1.1 m/s2 on level ground with friction having no significant effect. what is the normal force on the sled?

Normal force is equal to the formula of mg where m is the gravitational acceleration and g is the mass of the object. This is only applicable when the force is acting in the direction of the gravitational field and the  object is placed horizontally.So the formula is normal force = mg since the problem depicts what the statement is talking about.
So NF = mg= 9.8 m/s^2* 4.2kg= 41.16 N or 41 N

<span>the body is moving horizontally, it doesnt matter watever kind of horizontal forces are acting.
 Therefore the normal force is equal to the weight
 N=mg=4.2*9.8=41N
 Note: the other data in the problem have no relevance
 answer
</span> the normal force on the sled is 41N

A hungry rat is placed in a maze. It walks the following path to find a piece of cheese. 4.0m N, 7.5 m E, 6.8 m S, 3.7 m E, 3.6
storchak [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall take the help of vector form of displacement . Taking east as i and north as j

4.0m N = 4 j

7.5 m E = 7.5 i

6.8 m S = - 6.8 j

3.7 m E, = 3.7 i

3.6 m S = - 3.6 j

5.3 m W = - 5.3 i

3.7 m N, = 3.7 j

5.6 m W = - 5.6 i

4.4 m S = - 4.4 j

4.9 m W = -  4.9 i

Total displacement = 4j +7.5 i -6.8j+3.7i-3.6j-5.3i+3.7j-5.6i-4.4j-4.9i

= -4.6 i -7.1 j

magnitude of displacement = \sqrt{(4.6^2+7.1^2)}

= 8.46 m

Direction

Tanθ = 7.1/ 4.6

θ = 57⁰ south of west .

distance walked = 4+7.5 +6.8+3.7+3.6+5.3+3.7+5.6+4.4+4.9

= 49.5 m

A copper telephone wire has essentially
Lunna [17]

Answer:

128.21 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial temperature (θ₁) = 4 °C

Final temperature (θ₂) = 43 °C

Change in length (ΔL) = 8.5 cm

Coefficient of linear expansion (α) = 17×10¯⁶ K¯¹)

Original length (L₁) =.?

The original length can be obtained as follow:

α = ΔL / L₁(θ₂ – θ₁)

17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(43 – 4)

17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / L₁(39)

17×10¯⁶ = 8.5 / 39L₁

Cross multiply

17×10¯⁶ × 39L₁ = 8.5

6.63×10¯⁴ L₁ = 8.5

Divide both side by 6.63×10¯⁴

L₁ = 8.5 / 6.63×10¯⁴

L₁ = 12820.51 cm

Finally, we shall convert 12820.51 cm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

12820.51 cm = 12820.51 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

12820.51 cm = 128.21 m

Thus, the original length of the wire is 128.21 m

a 2100-kg car drives with a speed of 18 m/s onb a flat road around a curve that has a radius of curvature of 83m. The coefficien
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

<u>The magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N</u>

Explanation:

Using the definition of the centripetal force we have:

\Sigma F=ma_{c}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}

Where:

  • m is the mass of the car
  • v is the speed
  • R is the radius of the curvature

Now, the force acting in the motion is just the friction force, so we have:

F_{f}=m\frac{v^{2}}{R}

F_{f}=2100\frac{18^{2}}{83}

F_{f}=8197.60 \: N

<u>Therefore the magnitude of the friction force is 8197.60 N</u>

I hope it helps you!
