A 4 kg textbook sits on a desk. It is pushed horizontally with a 50 N applied force against a 15 N frictional force.
GarryVolchara [31]

a) See free-body diagram in attachment

b) The book is stationary in the vertical direction

c) The net horizontal force is 35 N in the forward direction

d) The net force on the book is 35 N in the forward horizontal direction

e) The acceleration is 8.75 m/s^2 in the forward direction

Explanation:

a)

The free-body diagram of a body represents all the forces acting on the body using arrows, where the length of each arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force and points in the same direction.

From the diagram of this book, we see there are 4 forces acting on the book:

- The applied force, F = 50 N, pushing forward in the horizontal direction

- The frictional force, F_f = 15 N, pulling backward in the horizontal direction (the frictional force always acts in the direction opposite to the motion)

- The weight of the book, W=mg, where m is the mass of the book and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, acting downward. We can calculate its magnitude using the mass of the book, m = 4 kg:

W=(4)(9.8)=39.2 N

- The normal reaction exerted by the desk on the book, N, acting upward, and balancing the weight of the book

b)

The book is in equilibrium in the vertical direction, therefore there is no motion.

In fact, the magnitude of the normal reaction (N) exerted by the desk on the book is exactly equal to the weight of the book (W), so the equation of motion along the vertical direction is

N-W=ma

where a is the acceleration; however, since N = W, this becomes

a=0

And since the book is initially at rest on the desk, this means that there is no motion.

c)

We said there are two forces acting in the horizontal direction:

- The applied force, F = 50 N, forward

- The frictional force, F_f = 15 N, backward

Since they act along the same line, we can calculate their resultant as

\sum F = F - F_f = 50 - 15 = 35 N

and therefore the net force is 35 N in the forward direction.

d)

The net force is obtained as the resultant  of the net forces in the horizontal and vertical direction. However, we have:

- The net force in the horizontal direction is 35 N

- The net force in the vertical direction is zero, because the weight is balanced by the normal reaction

Therefore, this means that the total net force acting on the book is just the net force acting on the horizontal direction, so 35 N forward.

e)

The acceleration of the book can be calculated by using Newton's second law:

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Here we have:

\sum F = 35 N (in the forward direction)

m = 4 kg

Therefore, the acceleration is

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{35}{4}=8.75 m/s^2 (forward)

Order from biggest to smallest?<br> Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars
Zinaida [17]
Hello,

The answer is "universe, Milky Way, clusters, stars, planets".

Reason:

The universe would be the biggest because it has all the galaxy's, starts, clusters, and planets into one. Then it would be Milky Way because this is a galaxy that contains: stars, planets, and clusters. Then it would be clusters because that contains stars, or planets in one group. Then be stars because stars are bigger than planets. Then it would be planets. Therefore the order should go like this: <span>Milky Way, universe, planets, clusters, and stars.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

The electron gun in a television tube accelerates electrons (mass = 9.11x10^-31 kg, charge = 1.6 x 10^-19C) from rest to 3 x10^7
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Electric field acting on the electron is  127500 N/C.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an electron, m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Charge on electron, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Initial speed of electron, u = 0

Final speed of electron, v=3\times 10^7\ m/s

Distance covered, s = 2 cm = 0.02 m

We need to find the electric field required. Firstly, we will find the acceleration of the electron from third equation of motion as :

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{(3\times 10^7)^2-0}{2\times 0.02}

a=2.25\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

According to Newton's law, force acting on the electron is given by :

F = ma

F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 2.25\times 10^{16}

F=2.04\times 10^{-14}\ N

Electric force is given by :

F = q E, E = electric field

E=\dfrac{F}{q}

E=\dfrac{2.04\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

E = 127500 N/C

So, the electric field is 127500 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

In a closed system, as kinetic energy increases, what happens to potential energy?
kupik [55]
<h2>Because kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared, increases in velocity will have an exponentially greater effect on translational kinetic energy. Doubling the mass of an object will only double its kinetic energy, but doubling the velocity of the object will quadruple its velocity.</h2>
