Two horizontal forces are exerted on a large crate. The first force is 317 N to the right. The second force is 173 N to the left

a. Draw a force diagram for the horizontal forces acting on the crate. b. What is the net force acting on the crate? c. The box is initially at rest. Five seconds later, its velocity is 6.5 m/s to the right. What is the crate's mass?

Answer:

A. Refer to the figure.

B. The net force acting on the crate is

$F_{net} = F_1 - F_2 = 317 - 173 = 144N$

C. We should first find the acceleration of the crate using the following kinematics equation:

$v = v_0 + at\\6.5 = 0 + 5a\\a = 1.3 m/s^2$

Mass of the crate can be found by Newton’s Second Law:

$F = Ma\\M = F/a = 144/1.3 = 110.7 kg$

scoray [572]

Answer:

m = 4.65 kg

Explanation:

As we know that the mass of the water that evaporated out is given as

$m = 0.0250 kg$

so the energy released in form of vapor is given as

$Q = mL$

$Q = (0.0250)(2.25 \times 10^6)$

$Q = 56511 J$

now the heat required by remaining water to bring it from 15 degree to 100 degree

$Q_2 = ms\Delta T$

$Q_2 = (4 - 0.025)(4186)(100 - 15)$

$Q_2 = 1.41\times 10^6J$

total heat required for above conversion

$Q = 56511 + 1.41 \times 10^6 = 1.47 \times 10^6 J$

now by heat energy balance

heat given by granite = heat absorbed by water

$m(790)(500 - 100) = 1.47 \times 10^6$

$m = 4.65 kg$

At what distance (in m) is the electrostatic force between two electrons equal to the weight of one?

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Electrostatic force between two electrons is equal to weight of one electron

i.e.

$\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}=m_e\cdot g$

where $q_1,q_2$ are the charge of particles

$m_e=$ mass of electron

r=distance between them

$\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{r^2}=9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8$

$r=5.08\ m$

The rod of the fixed hydraulic cylinder is moving to the left with a constant speed vA = 25 mm/s. Determine the corresponding ve

Montano1993 [528]

Explanation:

let vertical distance from A to C be $h=250mm$ the constraint equation is:

$l_{ac} +l_{ab} =L$

we want to find $l_{bc}$ distance can be written as $l_{bc} =h_{1}+h_{2}$ which we will find by using Pythagorean theorem h 1 is a constant and can be written as h:

$h_{2} =\sqrt{l_{ab}^2- s_{A} ^2}$

$l_{ac} =\sqrt{s_{A}^2+ h^2 }$

$l_{ab} =L-\sqrt{s_{A} ^2+h^2 }$

taking derivative w.r.t time we get

$h^._{2} =-v_{B =(l_{ab} l_{ab} ^.-s_{A} v_{A} )/h_{2}$

$l_{ab} ^.=(s_{A} v_{A} )/l_{ab} -L$

given $s_{A} =425mm$ which gives us

$l_{ab} =1050-\sqrt{450^2+250^2} =556.923mm\\\\h_{2} =\sqrt{556.923^2-425^2}=359.914mm$

$l_{ab} ^.=(425.25)/(556.923-1050)=-21.548mm\\\\-v_{B} =(-556.923*21.548-425.25)/(359.914)\\\\v_{B} =62.864mm/s$
