Answer: 16N

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of box M= 2 kg

Initial speed V1 = 4 m/s

Final speed V2 = 8 m/s

Time taken T= 0.5 s

Average strength of this force F = ?

Now, recall that Force is the rate of change of momentum per unit time

i.e Force = momentum / time

Hence, F = M x (V2 - V1)/T

F = 2kg x (8 m/s - 4 m/s) / 0.5s

F = 2kg x (4 m/s / 0.5s)

F = 2kg x 8 m/s/s)

F = 16N

Thus, the average strength of this

force is 16 newton.

Tom is sitting facing forward in the train as it is getting ready to leave the station. He puts a smooth ball on the train floor

Vesnalui [34]

According to Newton's first law of motion, what happens to the ball is the ball rolls backward.

<h3>What is the first law?</h3>

This means that an object at rest or in motion will remain uniformly rectilinear and tend to be in that state if the net force on it is zero.

In this case, we have to think that the ball is at rest and the train is moving with a velocity that way, the reaction of the ball will be to go in the opposite direction to the motion.

First, calculate the mass of the water used. You do this by subtracting the original mass of the flask from the combined mass of the water and flask, giving:60.735 g - 31.601 g = 29.134 g
So we now know we have 29.134 g of water. To calculate the volume of the flask, simply divide by the density of the water, giving:29.134 g / (0.9973 g/cm3) = 29.213 cm3

A 50.0-kg block is being pulled up a 16.0Â° slope by a force of 250 n that is parallel to the slope. the coefficient of kinetic

Drupady [299]

When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
a = 2.84 m/s²
