A box weighs 2000N and is accelerated uniformly over a horizontal surface at a rate of 8 m/s^2. The opposing force of friction b

etween the box and the surface is 27.4.
How much force would be required to lift the box upward with an acceleration of 8 m/s^2?

Answer:

3633 N

Explanation:

When the box is lift upward, there are only two forces acting on it:

- The force of push, F, upward

- The force of gravity, downward, which is the weight of the object:

W = 2000 N

So, the equation of motion for the box is

F-W = ma

where

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

The mass can be found from the weight of the box:

m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{2000}{9.8}=204.1 kg

Where g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, and the acceleration is

a=8 m/s^2

So, we can solve for F, the force required:

F=mg+ma=m(g+a)=(204.1)(9.8+8)=3633 N

An airplane flies 120 km at a constant altitude in a direction 30.0° north of east. a wind is blowing that results in a net hori
astraxan [27]
 Best Answer:<span>  </span><span>The net angle between the direction of flight of the aircraft and the wind in the opposing direction is 20. THe component opposing the aircraft is 2.4*cos 20 KN 
= 2400 * 0.9397 = 2255.2622 N. The distance covered is 120 Km 
The work done by the aircraft overcoming the wind is 
= 2255.2622 * 120000 = 270631464 = 2.71 x 10^8 N 
As the question is trickily worded as : the work done on the plane by the air (wind) the answer is -2.71 x 10^8 J . (fourth option)</span>
