Newton's third law tells us that for every force there is an equal and opposite force.  This means that if Anna exerts a force of 20 Newtons on the box, the box exerts a force of 20 Newtons on Anna.

Answer:

The magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna is 20 newtons.

Explanation:

It is given that, Anna needs to move a box of paperback books across the room. If she applies a force of 20 newtons to the box. We need to find the magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna.

The force exerted by the box on Anna is 20 newtons but it acts in the opposite direction as per Newton's third law of motion. The third law of motion explains the impact of forces i.e. action and reaction force.

So, the magnitude of the force exerted by the box on Anna is also 20 newtons. Hence, this is the required solution.

A Viking ship roller coaster at the fair has a mass of 36,000 kg. If at its peak it reaches a height of 20 m off the ground, how
adell [148]

Answer:

7056 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ship roller coaster is 36,000 kg.

It reaches a height of 20 m off the ground

We need to find the gravitational potential energy does it have. The formula for the gravitational potential energy ios given by :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E = 36,000 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

= 7056000 J

or

E = 7056 kJ

So, it will have 7056 kJ of gravitational potential energy.

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 220 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. If the current in each of the t
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1.86 N and the direction of force is towards the other wire.

Explanation:

Given:

Current flowing through each power line, I = 130 A

Distance between the two power lines, d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Length of power lines, L = 220 m

The force exerted by the power lines on each other is given by the relation:

F = \frac{\mu_{0}LII }{2\pi d}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F = \frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times220\times130\times130 }{2\pi\times0.4}

F = 1.86 N

Since the direction of current flowing through the power lines are opposite to each other, so the force is attractive in nature. Hence, the direction of force experienced by the power lines on each other is towards the each other.

a certain motor can produce a force of 70 n on a model plane. if the required acceleration is 30 m/s^2 then what is the maximum
8_murik_8 [283]
This is simply F=ma so 70N/30m/s^2 will give you the max mass which would be in kg, and the mass would be 2.333333kg a very light plane I might say

A guyot is ________. A. any portion of the ocean floor that is topographically higher than surrounding sea floor B. an extinct o
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

c.an extinct oceanic hot-spot volcano that has subsided below sea level

Explanation:

- Marine geology defines a guyot as an isolated underwater volcanic mountain with a flat top more than 200m below the surface of the sea.

-The flat top is due to years of wave erosion.

-Guyots can form a chain of seamounts as the ocean plate of the Earth's crust moves slowly over a hot spot that remains stationary beneath the plate.
