A student is helping her teacher move a 9.5 kg box of books. what net sideways force must she exert on the box to slide it acros

Mass of the box which contains books (m) = 9.5 kg

Acceleration required (a) = 1 m/s^2

Let the force applied by the teacher and student be F.

The only force acting in the horizontal direction is F and it will produce an acceleration of 1 m/s^2

According to Newton's Seconds law:

F(net) = ma

F = ma

F = 9.5 × 1

F = 9.5 Newtons

Hence, the sideways force applied by teacher and the students is equal to 9.5 Newtons

Now in "real life," this automobile is cruising at 20.5 m/s (equal to 73.8 km/hr) when it is about to hit a pedestrian stuck in
algol13

Answer:

He needs 1.53 seconds to stop the car.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car is 1500 kg

Speed of the car, v = 20.5 m/s

He will not push the car with a force greater than, F=2\times 10^4\ N

The impulse delivered to the object is given by the change in momentum as :

F\times t=mv\\\\t=\dfrac{mv}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1500\times 20.5}{2\times 10^4}\\\\t=1.53\ s

So, he needs 1.53 seconds to stop the car. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball with a volume of 3 cm3 and a density of 9.0 g/cm3 increases its velocity from 2 m/s to 6 m/s over a 12
V125BC [204]

Answer:

M = ρ V = 9 gm/cm^ 3 * cm^3 = 27 gm

a = (V2 - V1) / t = (6 - 2) m/s / 12 s = 1/3 m/s^2     the acceleration

F = M a = 27 gm * 1/3 m/s^2 = 9 dynes      net force applied

The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2, towards the Earth. Rain falling from an altitude of 9,000 m would fall for about 1
Anna [14]

Answer:

the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

height of fall of the rain, h = 9,000 m

time of the rain fall, t = 1.5 minutes = 90 s

Determine the initial velocity of the rain, as follows;

h = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\9000 = 90u +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(90)^2\\\\9000 = 90u + 39690\\\\90u = -30690\\\\u = \frac{-30690}{90} \\\\u = -341 \ m/s

The final speed of the rain is calculated as;

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = (-341)^2 + 2(9.8\times 9000)\\\\v^2 = 292681\\\\v = \sqrt{292681} \\\\v = 541 \ m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the rain is 541 m/s.

If x =(20-4t^2) find average velocity between t=0and t=2sec​
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The average velocity is 8 unit per sec

Explanation:

Given as :

The Distance x = 20 - 4t²  unit

Change in time Δt = ( 2 - 0 ) s = 2 s

Let the velocity = V unit/s

∴   V = \frac{\partial (20 - 4t^{2})}{\partial x}

Or, V =  - 8t          unit/s

Now velocity at t = 0

V1 = - 8 × 0 =  0  unit/s

And   velocity  at t = 2 sec

V2 =  - 8 × 2 = - 16

So, Average velocity = \frac{v2 - v1}{2} = \frac{- 16 - 0}{2} = -8

Or, \begin{vmatrix}V\end{vmatrix} = 8   unit/sec

Hence The average velocity is 8 unit per sec       Answer
