KengaRu [80]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are two forces: weight force pulling down and air resistance pushing up.

Sum the forces in the y direction:

∑F = 50 N − (30 kg) (10 m/s²)

∑F = -250 N

A juggler throws a bowling pin straight up in the air. After the pin leaves his hand and while it is in the air, which statement
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The velocity of the pin is opposite its acceleration on the way up.

(d) option is correct.

Explanation:

when the juggler throws a bowling pin straight in the air, the acceleration working on the pin is in the downward direction due to the gravitational force of the earth.

According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation

''The gravitational force is a force that attracts any objects with mass''

As soon as parachute of a falling soldier opens, how will the accleration change?​
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The acceleration will become zero

Explanation:

When the parachute of a falling soldier is opened the wide surface area decreases his velocity. This also translates to the drag force acting on the fallen soldier

The acceleration will become zero when the velocity of the fallen soldier is constant. This principle is the reason the parachute is used for safety reasons .

Can someone please explain to me why the net force of the ball changes in the Y direction and not the X Direction? I made little
stiks02 [169]
Whenever an object is in projectile motion, that is, it has 2-dimensional motion in the x and y axis, the resultant force on the object is in the y-direction.
This is because once the object has been projected, or the ball has been kicked in this case, there is no longer a force being applied on it in the x-direction. The air resistance is also neglected so the ball's final velocity in the x-direction is equal to its initial velocity in the x-direction.
However, the force of gravity cannot be neglected and causes the ball to come downwards. Therefore, after the ball has been projected, the net force on the ball is downwards, due to gravity.

A go-cart and rider have a mass of 14 kg. If the cart accelerates at 6m/s^2 during a 40 m sprint in 100 seconds, how much power
lara [203]

Answer:

P = 33.6 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

F = forces [N]

m = mass = 14 [kg]

a = acceleration = 6 [m/s²]

F = 14*6\\F = 84 [N]

In the second part of this problem we must find the work done, where the work in physics is known as the product of force by distance, it is important to make it clear that force must be applied in the direction of movement.

W = F*d

where:

W = work [J]

F = force = 84 [N]

d = displaciment = 40 [m]

W = 84*40\\W = 3360 [J]

Finally, the power can be calculated by the relationship between the work performed in a given time interval.

P=W/t\\

where:

P = power [W]

W = work = 3360 [J]

t = time = 100 [s]

Now replacing:

P=3360/100\\P=33.6[W]

The power is given in watts
