1 answer:

3 0

Newton’s second law of motion states that when a force acts on an object, the object’s acceleration is equal to the net force divided by the object’s mass, and is in the same direction as the net force.

How is newtons third law of motion demonstrated on a roller coaster?

butalik [34]

<span>Newton's Third Law of Action-Reaction is that for each and every action that happens, there is an equal and opposite reaction to it. In the scenario of a roller coaster, this is when you push down on the seat of the roller coaster as it flies along and the seat pushes back against you.</span>

The weight of an object is the force generated by Earth's gravity accelerating the object's _________. distance mass time destin

julsineya [31]

The weight of an object is the force of gravity between Earth's
mass and the object's mass.

The forces of gravity always come in equal, opposite pairs.
The Earth's weight on the object is the same as the object's
weight on the Earth, and when the object falls to Earth, Earth
falls to the object.

serg [7]

Answer:

$\Delta U = 1640 J$

Explanation:

As we know by first law of thermodynamics that for ideal gas system we have

Heat given = change in internal energy + Work done

so here we will have

Heat given to the system = 2.2 kJ

Q = 2200 J

also we know that work done by the system is given as

$W = 560 J$

so we have

$\Delta U = Q - W$

$\Delta U = 2200 - 560$

$\Delta U = 1640 J$

An elevator (mass 4100 kg) is to be designed so that the maximum acceleration is 0.0400g. what is the maximum force the motor sh

melomori [17]

Answer:

The maximum force on the supporting cable is 80688 N.

The minimum force on the supporting cable is -164 N.

Explanation:

For maximum force movement of elevator is in upward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a is acceleration of elevator

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the maximum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 0.04g + 9.8)

T = 80688 N

This is the maximum force on the supporting cable.

For minimum force movement of elevator is in downward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a= -0.04g is acceleration of elevator because elevator is moving downward

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the minimum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 9.8 - 0.04g)

T = -164 N

This is the minimum force on the supporting cable.
