Answer:

The force must he apply to the sled is of F= 764.4 N.

Explanation:

m= 60 kg

g= 9.8 m/s²

μ=0.3

W= m*g

W= 588 N

Fr= μ*W

Fr= 176.4 N

F= W + Fr

F= 764.4 N

<h2>Answer:</h2>

180N

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using Newton's law of motion;

∑F = m x a       --------------------(i)

Where;

∑F = Resultant force

m = mass of the object (sled in this case)

a = acceleration of the sled

<em>Calculate the resultant force;</em>

Since the direction of motion is horizontal, the horizontal forces acting on the sled are the;

i. Applied force (F_{A}) in one direction and;

ii. Frictional force (F_{R}) in the other direction to oppose motion

Therefore, the resultant force ∑F is the vector sum of the two forces. i.e;

∑F = F_{A} - F_{R}  -----------------------(i)

Frictional force F_{R} is the product of the coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) and weight(W) of the sled. i.e

F_{R} = μ x W

Where;

W = mass(m) x gravity(g)

W = m x g

=> F_{R} = μmg

<em>Substitute </em>F_{R}<em> into equation (ii)</em>

∑F = F_{A} - μmg

<em>Substitute ∑F into equation (i)</em>

F_{A} - μmg = ma  -------------------(iii)

Since the motion is at constant speed, it means acceleration is zero (0)

Substitute a = 0 into equation (iii) to give;

F_{A} - μmg = 0

=> F_{A} = μmg

Substitute the values of μ = 0.3, m = 60kg and g = 10m/s² into the above equation to give;

=> F_{A}  = 0.3 x 60 x 10

=> F_{A} = 180N

This means that the applied force should be 180N

10) If the mass 2m, the left mass
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects of masses m_{1},  m_{2} kept at a distance r is given by the formula

F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }

Here ,m_{1} = 2m

         m_{2} = \frac{m}{2}

         

Thus , F = \frac{-G.2m.\frac{m}{2} }{r^{2} }

          F = \frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }.

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>
  • Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
  • From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
  • For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

                           N_x=86.62N

  • We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

                           N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\

  • To find Ny, we need to find the tension T.
  • For this, we can equate the net horizontal force.

                           F_H=N_x=Tcos59\\\\T=\frac{F_H}{cos59} =\frac{86.62}{0.51}= 169.84N

  • Thus, the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge become,

                    N_y= (40*9.8)-(169.8*sin59)=246.4N

  • Thus, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,

                 N=\sqrt{N_x^2+N_y^2} =\sqrt{(86.62)^2+(246.4)^2}=261.12N

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge is 261.12N.

Explain where you observe reflection, refraction, and absorption of light in your everyday activities
Studentka2010 [4]
Reflection: you look in the mirror.
Refraction: You put a straw in a glass of water, and it looks like it broke.
Absorption: If you have a black sweater and you wear it out in the cold, the black sweater is going to hold in heat better than a lighter sweater because the black sweater absorbs light .

Two charges, each of 2.9 microC are placed at two corners of a square 50cm on a side, If the charges are on one side of the squa
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field and direction of electric field are 146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C and 75.36°.

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge q_{1}= 2.9\mu C

Second chargeq_{2}= 2.9\mu C

Distance between two corners r= 50 cm

We need to calculate the electric field due to other charges at one corner

For E₁

Using formula of electric field

E_{1}=\dfrac{kq}{r'^2}

Put the value into the formula

E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times2.9\times10^{-6}}{(50\sqrt{2}\times10^{-2})^2}

E_{1}=52200=52.2\times10^{3}\ N/C

For E₂,

Using formula of electric field

E_{1}=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

Put the value into the formula

E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times2.9\times10^{-6}}{(50\times10^{-2})^2}

E_{2}=104400=104.4\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the horizontal electric field

E_{x}=E_{1}\cos\theta

E_{x}=52.2\times10^{3}\times\cos45

E_{x}=36910.97=36.9\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the vertical electric field

E_{y}=E_{2}+E_{1}\sin\theta

E_{y}=104.4\times10^{3}+52.2\times10^{3}\sin45

E_{y}=141310.97=141.3\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the net electric field

E_{net}=\sqrt{E_{x}^2+E_{y}^2}

Put the value into the formula

E_{net}=\sqrt{(36.9\times10^{3})^2+(141.3\times10^{3})^2}

E_{net}=146038.69\ N/C

E_{net}=146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the direction of electric field

Using formula of direction

\tan\theta=\dfrac{141.3\times10^{3}}{36.9\times10^{3}}

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{141.3\times10^{3}}{36.9\times10^{3}})

\theta=75.36^{\circ}

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field and direction of electric field are 146.03\times10^{3}\ N/C and 75.36°.
