Answer:
- Newton's first law applies. An object at rest will stay that way until a force is applied.
- Any amount of effort can be applied to any amount of mass (in the ideal case). The question is not sufficiently specific.
Explanation:
A force is required to move an object because the object will stay at rest until a force is applied.

The effort required to lift or push two masses instead of one depends on the desired effect. For the same kinetic energy, no more effort is required. For the same momentum, half the effort is required for two masses. For the same velocity, double the effort is required.
<span>11.25 kg of sand.
The coefficient of static friction tells you what fraction of the normal force is needed to start the object moving. Since the block is on a horizontal surface, the normal force is the same as the mass of the block. Therefore
M = 28 * 0.450 = 12.60
So once the mass hanging off the cord reaches 12.60 kg, the block will start to move. And since the bucket masses 1.35 kg, you need to subtract the mass of the bucket from the total mass needed, giving
M = 12.60 - 1.35 = 11.25</span>
Ceq in series is calculated by 1/C1 + 1/C2 + ....
While, in parallel, Ceq= C1 + C2 + ...
So the ratio is 1/Ceq = Ceq
We know that
• The mass of the elevator is 5000 kg.
Let's draw a free-body diagram.
As you can observe, there are just two forces involved, the weight of the elevator and the tension force. Let's use Newton's Second Law.
But, W = mg = 5000kg*9.8m/s^2 = 49,000 N, and m = 5000 kg, a = 0 (because the speed is constant).
<h2>Therefore, the tension in the cable is 49,000 N.</h2>
