Two people push on a boulder to try to move it. The mass of the boulder is 775 kg. One person pushes north with a force of 68 N.

The other pushes west with a force of 43 N. Predict the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) of the boulder. Assume that friction is negligible.

The magnitude of the acceleration is 0.1038 m/s²

Explanation:

Net force is given by the square root of the sum of squares of the forces in y and x coordinates

Absolute Net Force will be;

Nf=\sqrt{(Fx)^2+(Fy)^2} \\\\\\Nf=\sqrt{(68)^2+(43)^2} \\\\\\Nf=80.45N

However, Fnet can be calculated as the product of force and acceleration

Fnet=m*a

Fnet= 80.45 N

m= 775 kg

a=?

80.45=775*a

80.45/775= a

0.1038 m/s²=a

If an object with more mass is pushed with the same force as an object with less mass the object with more mass will accelerate?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

smaller acceleration, so lower change in velocity

Explanation:

To answer this question we examine the equation that relates mass with force and with acceleration: F=m*a.

Since we want to know what happens to the acceleration, we solve for it in the equation: a=\frac{F}{m}

Notice that we are asked what happens when the force applied is the same, but now it is applied in an object with more mass (M).

We therefore would have to compare our initial form:

a=\frac{F}{m} with the new one: a=\frac{F}{M} wher the denominator is a larger quantity, therefore making our division/quotient smaller. Then, we conclude that the acceleration will be smaller, and therefore the change in velocity of the object will be lower.

A car drives at a constant speed of 21 m/s around a circle of radius 100 m.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Option D. 4.4 m/s²

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Velocity (v) = 21 m/s

Radius (r) = 100 m

Centripetal acceleration (a) =.?

The centripetal acceleration of the car can be obtained as follow:

Centripetal acceleration (a) = Velocity square (v²) / radius (r)

a = v²/r

a = 21²/100

a = 441/100

a = 4.41 ≈ 4.4 m/s²

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the car is 4.4 m/s².

Anika asks Eva to roll a basketball and then a bowling ball to her. Which requires more force to roll, and why?
Paul [167]

It's easy to roll the the basket ball than bowling ball

It is because bowling ball is solid spherical ball which will have less moment of inertia

its moment of inertia is given as

I = \frac{2}{5}mR^2

While for the hollow ball like basketball we know that moment of inertia is given as

I' = \frac{2}{3}mR^2

so here we can see for the same mass if we take basketball then its moment of inertia is more so it is easy to roll basket ball then to roll bowling ball.

So it is easy to roll basket ball then rolling ball
