How do I find the magnitude of the net force acting on the box

Physics

prohojiy [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

20 N

Explanation:

<em>Newton's second Law of motion</em> law states that If there is a external force acting on an object. Then the rate of change of momentum of  that object is directly proportional to the force acting on its.

  • the net force acting upon the object  <em>(F)</em>
  • the mass of the object. <em>(m)</em>
  • <em>V </em>Final velocity of the object
  • U initial velocity of the object
  • mV -Final momentum of the object
  • mU - Initial momentum of the object

Due to momentum change of that object, momentum change. We can write the equation bellow this,

F = (mV-mU)/t

When m is constant we can write the above expression like this,

F = m (V-U)/t

There for

(V-U)/t  =  a ( Rate of change of velocity can be denoted as acceleration )

F = m× a

we can state this in mathematically,

a = F/m

in another representation

F = m*a

Net Force = mass*acceleration

                 = 10 * 2

                 = 20 N

object is subjected to a negative acceleration due to the friction.

Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478
klasskru [66]

Answer:

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

\Rightarrow \frac{122}{48.72} = a

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

A car travels straight for 20 miles on a road that is 30° north of east. What is the east component of the car’s displacement
Over [174]

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle and its angles.

Let x represent the east component of the cars displacement.

Using trigonometric ratio:

cos(30) = x / 20

x = 20 * cos(30)

x = 17.3 miles

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

Volcanic eruptions are natural phenomena in the . They sometimes erupt, spilling out lava and dust. The lava solidifies, forming
solniwko [45]

Answer:

B. Geosphere

A. Biosphere

A. Atmosphere

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions occurs within the Geosphere. The geosphere is the rock solid earth make up of rocks that extends into the deep interior.

Magma formed deep within the crust rises to elevated parts and finally erupts as lava on the surface. When they cool, they solidify to form volcanic rocks.

The volcanic eruptions affects the biosphere significantly. The biosphere is the portion of the earth where all life forms exists.

Gases and ash spewed during an eruption into the atmosphere causes severe changes to weather and leads to pollution. The atmosphere is the gaseous envelope round the earth.

The width of the central maxima, formed from light of wavelength 575 nm behind a single slit that has a width of 115 μm, is 1.15
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

 L  = 1.15 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation

        a sin θ = m λ

Where a is the width of the slit, λ  the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.

The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ

We substitute in the first equation

           a (y / L) = m λ

The first maximum occurs for m = 1

The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is

         y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm

         y = 0.575 10⁻² m

Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)

       L = a y / λ  

Let's calculate

     L = 115 10⁻⁶  0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹

     L  = 1.15 m
