Answer:
Net force: 20 N to the right
mass of the bag: 20.489 kg
acceleration: 0.976 m/s^2
Explanation:
Since the normal force and the weight are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, they add up to zero in the vertical direction. In the horizontal direction, the 195 N tension to the right minus the 175 force of friction to the left render a net force towards the right of magnitude:
195 N - 175 N = 20 N
So net force on the bag is 20 N to the right.
The mass of the bag can be found using the value of the weight force: 201 N:
mass = Weight/g = 201 / 9.81 = 20.489 kg
and the acceleration of the bag can be found as the net force divided by the mass we just found:
acceleration = 20 N / 20.489 kg = 0.976 m/s^2
Answer:
When a tree is vigorously shaken, the branches of the tree come in motion but the leaves tend to continue in their state of rest due to inertia of rest. As a result of this, leaves get separated from the branches of the tree and hence fall down.
