A baggage handler at an airport applies a constant horizontal force with magnitude F1 to push a box, of mass m, across a rough h

orizontal surface with a very small constant acceleration a.
The baggage handler now pushes a second box, identical to the first, so that it accelerates at a rate of 2a.
How does the magnitude of the force F2 that the handler applies to this box compare to the magnitude of the force F1 applied to the first box?

Answer:

F_2 = 2F_1 - F where F is the friction force that is the same for both boxes

Explanation:

So the same boxes at the same mass m would create a same friction force, let this force be F. The net force in the first and 2nd cases would be

- 1st case: F1 - F

- 2nd case F2 - F

According to Newton 2nd law, this net would make acceleration

- 1st case a_1 = (F_1 - F)/m

- 2nd casea_2 = (F_2 - F)/m

Since a_2 = 2a_1

(F_2 - F)/m = 2(F_1 - F)/m

F_2 - F = 2F_1 - 2F

F_2 = 2F_1 - F

Explain why engineers leave a gap in a concrete bridge (answer must relate to density)
seraphim [82]
<span>Different materials expand and contract at different rates based on temperature. Just like if you leave a plastic bottle full of water in a freezer it will burst, but if you leave it partially full no problem.....Ok?Expansion joints do the same for bridges. There is a gap to allow for temperature related expansions and contractions. Sometimes you drive over bridges and roadways where this movement is constricted and you might notice a bumpy ride. Engineers can predict the variation of structural length based on span lengths and leave the necessary gaps.....btw, NICE QUESTION:)</span>

A cricket player catches the ball leaning towards to the ground,why?​
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As it’s difficult to catch it from up.

Gravitational force will pull us when we jump.

If gravity was not there, he could catch the ball. But he will float in the sky after that.

That’s the answer
