Answer:
A 10 N force pointing up
Explanation:
If the net acceleration of the object is horizontal pointing to the right, that means that all vertical forces must have canceled out, and the only ones "unbalanced" are the horizontal ones (10 N to the right minus 5 N to the left giving a net force of 5 N to the right).
Since they mentioned only one vertical force pointing down (10 N), there must be another one of same magnitude but pointing in opposite direction (up).
Then there must also be a 10 N force pointing up acting on the object.
Answer:
A. Both spheres land at the same time.
Explanation:
The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion. Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.
We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma + mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.
