Answer:

The block has an acceleration of 3 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

\sum F_{r} = ma   (1)

Where \sum F_{r} represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

F_{x} + F{y} = ma  (2)

The forces present in x are F = 10 N and f = 4 N (the friction force):

F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N

Notice that f subtracts to F since it is at the opposite direction.

F_{x} = 6 N

The forces present in y balance each other:

F_{y} = 0

Therefore:

6 + 0 = ma  

6 N = (2kg)a  (3)

But 1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2} and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}  

a = 3 m/s^{2}

So the block has an acceleration of a = 3 m/s^{2}.

A box weighing 200N is pushed on a horizontal floor. What acceleration will result if a horizontal force of 100N is applied on t
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

the friction force in the reverse direction is 200 *0.4=80 N.

the net forward force acting on the box is therefore

Fnet= 100 - 80  N

= 20 N

acceleration = Fnet / mass

=Fnet *g/(weight)

=20 *9.8/200 = 0.98 m/s^2

In an Internal Combustion Engine, the fuel is singed in the chamber or vessel. Example: Diesel or Petrol motor utilized as a part of Cars. 
The internal engine has its vitality touched off in the barrel, as 99.9% of motors today. In an External Combustion Engine, the inner working fuel is not consumed. Here the liquid is being warmed from an outer source. The fuel is warmed and extended through the interior instrument of the motor bringing about work. Eg. Steam Turbine, Steam motor Trains. An outer burning case is a steam motor where the warming procedure is done in a kettle outside the motor.
