The force is applied to the accelerating object that has a constant mass. Option A is correct.
<h3>
What does Newton's second law of motion state?</h3>
The force applied to the object is the product of its mass and acceleration.

Where,
- force
- mass
- acceleration
From the equation, the force and the acceleration are in a proportional relation. The mass is not changing as given in the question.
Therefore, the force is applied to the accelerating object that has a constant mass.

For this case, the first thing you should do is write the kinematic motion equation of the block.
We have then:
vf = vo + a * t
Where,
vf: Final speed.
vo: Initial speed.
a: acceleration.
t: time.
Substituting the values:
(16) = (0) + a * (16)
Clearing the acceleration:
a = 16/16 = 1m / s ^ 2
Note: the other data for this case are not used in this problem.
answer:
The acceleration of the box is 1m / s ^ 2
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question, we were made to understand that the collision between the two billiard balls was an elastic collision. Hence, an elastic collision is one in which the kinetic energy is conserved. Meaning the kinetic energy before the collision is still retained after the collision.
Kinetic energy before collision = kinetic energy after collision
1/2mv^2 = 1/2mv^2
There was no gain nor loss in energy
The vector c has a magnitude of 24.6m and it is in the negative y direction. Therefore

The vector b is 41.4° up from the x-axis. Therefore
![\vec{b} = b[cos(41.4^{o}) \hat{i} + sin(41.4^{o}) \hat{j} ] =b(0.75\hat{i} + 0.6613 \hat{j})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cvec%7Bb%7D%20%3D%20b%5Bcos%2841.4%5E%7Bo%7D%29%20%5Chat%7Bi%7D%20%2B%20sin%2841.4%5E%7Bo%7D%29%20%5Chat%7Bj%7D%20%5D%20%3Db%280.75%5Chat%7Bi%7D%20%2B%200.6613%20%5Chat%7Bj%7D%29)
The vector a is 27.7° up from the x-axis. Therefore
![\vec{a} = a[cos(22.7^{o})\hat{i} + sin(27.7^{o})\hat{j}] = a(0.8854\hat{i} + 0.4648\hat{j})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cvec%7Ba%7D%20%3D%20a%5Bcos%2822.7%5E%7Bo%7D%29%5Chat%7Bi%7D%20%2B%20sin%2827.7%5E%7Bo%7D%29%5Chat%7Bj%7D%5D%20%3D%20%20a%280.8854%5Chat%7Bi%7D%20%2B%200.4648%5Chat%7Bj%7D%29)
Because

, the sum of the x and y components should be zero. Therefore,
For the x-component,
0.8854a + 0.75b = 0
or
a + 0.847b = 0 (1)
For the y-component,
0.4648a + 0.6613b - 24.6 = 0
or
a + 1.4228b = 52.926 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2).
0.5758b = 52.926
b = 91.917
a = -0.847b = -77.854
Answer:
The magnitude of vector a is -77.85 m
The magnitude of vector b is 91.92 m
You measure the open distance between the floor and the bottom surface of the gas pedal. Then you press the gas pedal down 1/2 of that distance.
