Answer:
Explanation:
it is a vector as it has a magnitude and a direction. If it was a scalar quantity it would just have a magnitude and would be 45 m. Acceleration is an example of a vector quantity
Based on Newton's second law of motion, the net force applied to an object is equal to the product of the mass of the object and the acceleration it experiences. That is,
F = ma
If we are to assume that the net force is constant and that the mass is increased, the acceleration should therefore decrease in order to make constant the value at the right-hand side of the equation.
Relative to the positive horizontal axis, rope 1 makes an angle of 90 + 20 = 110 degrees, while rope 2 makes an angle of 90 - 30 = 60 degrees.
By Newton's second law,
- the net horizontal force acting on the beam is

where
are the magnitudes of the tensions in ropes 1 and 2, respectively;
- the net vertical force acting on the beam is

Answer:
The impulse on the object is 60Ns.
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as the product of the force applied on an object and the time at which it acts. It is also the change in the momentum of a body.
F = m a
F = m(
)
⇒ Ft = m(
-
)
where: F is the dorce on the object, t is the time at which it acts, m is the mass of the object,
is its initialvelocity and
is the final velocity of the object.
Therefore,
impulse = Ft = m(
-
)
From the question, m = 3kg,
= 0m/s and
= 20m/s.
So that,
Impulse = 3 (20 - 0)
= 3(20)
= 60Ns
The impulse on the object is 60Ns.
