A man and his dog are “walking” on flat Street. He is pulling on his stubborn dog with a force of 70 N Directed at a 30° angle f

Delvig [45]

Answer:

X component of force is 60.62 N.

Y component of force is 35 N.

Force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Magnitude of normal force is 210 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Force of pull is, $F=70\ N$

Mass of the dog is, $m=25\ kg$

Angle of inclination is, $\theta =30$ °

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

The free body diagram of the dog is shown below.

The X and Y components of force of pull is given as:

$F_X=F\cos \theta=(70)\cos (30)=60.62\ N\\F_Y=F\sin \theta=(70)\sin(30)=35\ N$

Therefore, the X and Y components of the force are 60.62 N and 35 N respectively.

Force of gravity on the dog is the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. Thus,

$F_g=mg=25\times 9.8=245\ N$

Therefore, the force of gravity on the dog is 245 N.

Now, consider the motion in the vertical direction of the dog. As there is no motion in the vertical direction, the net force along the Y direction is 0. In other words, the total Upward force is equal to the total downward force.

From the free body diagram,

$N+F_Y=mg\\N=mg-F_Y\\N=245-35=210\ N$

Therefore, the normal force acting on the dog is 210 N.

Why is the spectrum of a star called an absorption spectrum?

ladessa [460]

It is called absorption spectrum because a gas of hydrogen will make a line spectrum and if viewed for another angle it would be between a continuum light and a emission line spectrum

A mechanic changing the spark plugs in a car notes that the instruction manual calls for a torque with a magnitude of

Papessa [141]

The magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.

<h3>Force exerted by the wrench</h3>

The force exerted by the wrench is calculated using torque formula as follows;

torque, τ = F x r x sinθ

where;

F is the applied force
r is the perpendicular distance if force applied

F = τ /(r sinθ)

F = (39) / (0.3 sin 60)

F = 150.1 N

Thus, the magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.
