One can simply find the frictional force acting on an object using this equation:

(Ffrict = μ•Fnorm)

The process of determining the value of the individual forces acting upon an object involve an application of Newton's second law (Fnet=m•a) and an application of the meaning of the net force. If mass (m) and acceleration (a) are known, then the net force (Fnet) can be determined by use of the equation.

Fnet = m • a

If the numerical value for the net force and the direction of the net force is known, then the value of all individual forces can be determined.

Problem set 3 » (8) river swimming a swimmer heads directly across a river, swimming at her maximum speed of 1.30 m/s relative t

jasenka [17]

Velocity of swimmer across river = 1.30 m/s

Distance arrived downstream = 48 m

Width of river = 64 m

Time taken to cross river = $\frac{Width of river}{Velocity across river}$

= $\frac{64}{1.30} =49.23 s$

Speed of river current = $\frac{Distance arrived downstream}{Time taken to cross river}$

= $\frac{48}{49.23} = 0.975 m/s$

So, the river is flowing at a speed 0.975 m/s.

An object is moving with constant non-zero velocity. Which of thw following statements about it must be true

hram777 [196]

Answer:

The net force on the object is zero.

Explanation:

An object is moving with constant non-zero velocity. If velocity is constant, it means that the change in velocity is equal to 0. As a result, acceleration of the object is equal to 0. Net force is the product of mass and acceleration. Hence, the correct option is (d) "The net force on the object is zero".

The motion of a piston in an auto engine is simple harmonic. If the piston travels back and forth over a distance of 10 cm and t

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Maximum force will be 29040 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the piston m = 1.5 kg

Amplitude A = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Angular speed $\omega =4200rpm=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 4200}{60}=440rad/sec$
