If manuel weighs 375 n and is holding the box. how much force is the floor exerting on him? (include direction)

1 answer:

4 0

The box is exerting a force of its weight. So we'll use W=mg (Note: you can use the notation F=ma, doesn't matter since weight IS a force.) We can call g negative since it's directed down towards the earth.

W = 5kg(-9.8 m/(s^2)) = -49 N

Thus, the box exerts a force of 49N downwards.

An empty 2,500 kg train car is headed northbound at a velocity of 5 m/s. Ahead of the first car, an empty 1,500 kg car is headed

Tema [17]

Let the mass of 2500 kg car be $m_1$ and it's velocity be $v_1$ and the mass of 1500 kg car be $m_2$ and it's velocity be $v_2$ .

After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.

By law of conservation of momentum we have

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = MV$

2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V

V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s

So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s
