Let's call

the mass of the glider and

the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string.
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:

For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is

) and the acceleration a:

So, if we equalize the two equations, we get

and from this we can find the acceleration:
Answer:
Simple harmonic motion is the movement of a body or an object to and from an equilibrium position. In a simple harmonic motion, the maximum displacement (also called the amplitude) on one side of the equilibrium position is equal to the maximum displacement.
The force acting on an object must satisfy Hooke's law for the object to undergo simple harmonic motion. The law states that the force must be directed always towards the equilibrium position and also directly proportional to the distance from this position.
Is this a true or false question?
Answer:
The force on one side of the plate is 3093529.3 N.
Explanation:
Given that,
Side of square plate = 9 m
Angle = 60°
Water weight density = 9800 N/m³
Length of small strip is


The area of strip is

We need to calculate the force on one side of the plate
Using formula of pressure


On integrating




Hence, The force on one side of the plate is 3093529.3 N.
