What is the net Force needed to get a 16 kg box moving 4 m/s^2?

Physics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The net force should be of a magnitude of 64 N

Explanation:

We use Newton's second Law for this:

F_{net} = m\,*\,a

which for our case gives:

F_{net} = m\,*\,a=16\,(4)\,N= 64\,\,N

How do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate?
Wittaler [7]

Sky diving involves free fall under gravity along with the drag due to air molecules pushing against the body slowing the rate of fall of a body. This is actually a significant amount of force.  The drag force depends on the contact surface area and weight of the body. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position. This is because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. Since no two persons have identical body shape and weight, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

A 500.0 kg module is attached to a 440.0 kg shuttle craft, which moves at 1050. m/s relative to the stationary main spaceship. T
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

0.955286  j

Explanation:

A 500.0 kg module is attached to a 440.0 kg shuttle craft, which moves at 1050. m/s relative to the stationary main spaceship. Then a small explosion sends the module backward with speed 100.0 m/s relative to the new speed of the shuttle craft. As measured by someone on the main spaceship, by what fraction did the kinetic energy of the module and shuttle craft, Ki, increase because of the explosion?

M=500 kg,  m=440 kg

V=1000 m/s, v = 100 m/s

Let relative speed =Vs

Momentum rule says

(M+m)V=mVs+M(Vs-v)

 940(1000)=500(Vs-100)+440Vs

 940000=500Vs-50000+440Vs

 940Vs=940000+50000

 940Vs=990000

 Vs= 990000/940=1053.19 m/s

So, the module speed = Vs-v=1053.19-100=953.19 m/s

Fractional increase in KE is given by;

Total KE after explosion / He before explosion

=500(953.19)2+ 400(1053.19)2/ 940(1000)2= 0.955286
