<u>Answer:</u>

15.97 N force is tending to pull Rover forward

<u>Explanation:</u>

 The woman pulls on the leash with a force of 20.0 N at an angle of 37° above the horizontal. The arrangement is shown in the given figure,

 We nee to find the pulling force P. The 20.0 N force has two components, 20.0 cos 37 in horizontal direction and 20.0 sin 37 in vertical direction.

  The horizontal component is equal to pulling force P, which will pull Rover forward/

  So, P = 20.0 cos 37 = 15.97 N

 15.97 N force is tending to pull Rover forward.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

625 N

Explanation:

The impulse given to the nail is equal to the change in momentum of the hammer:

I=F \Delta t=m \Delta v

where

F is the force exerted by the hammer

\Delta t=0.08 s is the time of contact

m=2.5 kg is the mass

\Delta v=20 m/s is the change in velocity of the hammer

Substituting the data and re-arranging the equation, we can find the force:

F=\frac{m \Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{(2.5 kg)(20 m/s)}{0.08 s}=625 N

Scorpion4ik [409]

Explanation:

(i) Height of tree, h = 4 m

Mass of Ninja, m = 30 kg

The gravitational potential energy on the top branch of the tree is given by :

P=mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

P=30\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 4\ m\\\\P=1176\ J

(ii) If he were at a height of 2 meters from the ground, its potential energy will be :

P=mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

P=30\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 2\ m\\\\P=588\ J

Therefore, this is the required explanation.
