A 10 kg block is pushed with a constant horizontal force of 20 n against a constant horizontal frictional force of 10 n. What is

Answer:

The acceleration would be a=1 m/s^2. Let's explain why.

Explanation:

Let's say the block is □

20N→□    Block is pushed with a constant horizontal force of 20N

□←10N     It is known that frictional force is the <u>opposite way</u> of the movement

So it is safe to say that there is 10 N force trying to stop the block.

In this case our net force is F_{net} = 20-10=10N

According to <u>Newton's second motion law</u>

F=m.a (m=mass, F=force, a=acceleration

F_{net} =10=10.a → a=1\frac{m^{2} }{s}

As an extra information the block also applies gravitational m.g force down but since there is no other force applies in the vertical way, ground compansate the force.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The equivalent or total resistance of the circuit is 6

Explanation:

6 &6 are in series

6+6=r

r= 12

1/Rtotal= 1/12+1/2

1/Rt=2/12=1/6

Rt=6
