Answer:

The normal force will be lower than the gravitational force acting on the car. Therefore the answer is N < mg, which is <em>option B</em>.

Explanation:

Over a round hill, the centripetal force acting toward the the radius of the hill supports the gravitational force (mg) of the car. This notion can be expressed mathematically as follows:

At the top of a round hill

Normal force = Gravitational force - centripetal force

At the foot of a round hill

Normal Force = centripetal force + Gravitational force

1) the weight of an object at Earth's surface is given by F=mg, where m is the mass of the object and g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration at Earth's surface. The book in this problem has a mass of m=2.2 kg, therefore its weight is 
F=mg=(2.2 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=21.6 N

2) On Mars, the value of the gravitational acceleration is different:g=3.7 m/s^2. The formula to calculate the weight of the object on Mars is still the same, but we have to use this value of g instead of the one on Earth: F=mg=(2.2 kg)(3.7 m/s^2)=8.1 N

3) The weight of the textbook on Venus is F=19.6 N. We already know its mass (m=2.2 kg), therefore by re-arranging the usual equation F=mg, we can find the value of the gravitational acceleration g on Venus: 
g= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{ 19.6 N}{2.2 kg}=8.9 m/s^2

4) The mass of the pair of running shoes is m=0.5 kg. Their weight is F=11.55 N, therefore we can find the value of the gravitational acceleration g on Jupiter by re-arranging the usual equation F=mg: 
g= \frac{F}{m} = \frac{11.55 N}{0.5 kg} =23.1 m/s^2

5) The weight of the pair of shoes of m=0.5 kg on Pluto is F=0.3 N. As in the previous step, we can calculate the strength of the gravity g on Pluto as 
g= \frac{F}{m} = \frac{0.3 N}{0.5 kg} =0.6 m/s^2

<span>6) On Earth, the gravity acceleration is </span>g=9.81 m/s^2<span>. The mass of the pair of shoes is m=0.5 kg, therefore their weight on Earth is 
</span>F=mg=(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=4.9 N<span>

A train has a constant velocity of 2 m/s. east what is the magnitude of the horizontal acceleration of the trian?
kupik [55]

Answer:

0 m/s²

Explanation:

The velocity is constant, so there is no acceleration.

TRUE or FALSE: During a collision between objects of different mass, there is a greater force applied to the less massive object
ddd [48]
If they are moving at the same speed then it would be true because the larger object would have more mass and would have more momentum then the smaller object that has less mass! Hope this helps!

A force of 6 N is applied starting at 10 seconds, at 15 seconds?
lapo4ka [179]

Well depending on what every is pushing it with the force of (n) newtons its will stay at the same force rate but velocity and speed will change.
