A box of weight 74 N is sliding on a horizontal surface at a constant velocity due to an external force F-> of magnitude 4.8

N. A normal force (n->) and a friction force (f->) also act on the box. What is the magnitude of the friction force?
74 N


2.4 N


69 N


4.8 N


9.6 N

Answer

4.8 N

If the box is moving with a constant velocity, then we can say that the system is in equilibrium. This is because if the external force (F->) was greater than other forces the box would be accelerating. This tells us that this force (F->) is just enough to overcome friction and so it must be equal to 4.8 N.

The normal force has no effect to the horizontal velocities or forces. It is equal to -Weight. That is -74 N. The negative sign shows that the force is in opposite direction.

<h3>Question:</h3>

How to find g (acceleration due to gravity)

<h3>Solution:</h3>

We know,

Acceleration due to gravity (g)

=  \frac{GM}{ {R}^{2} }

where, G = Gravitational constant

= 6.67 \times  {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2}  \\

M = Mass of the earth

= 6 \times  {10}^{24} \:  kg

R = Radius of the earth

= 6.4 \times  {10}^{6} m

Putting these values of G, M and R in the above formula, we get

g \:  =  \:  \frac{6.67 \times  {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2}   \times \: 6 \times  {10}^{24} \:  kg }{(6.4 \times  {10}^{6}m {)}^{2}  }  \\  = 9.8m/ {s}^{2}

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity is

9.8m/s ^{2}

Hope it helps.

Calculate the length of a simple pendulum that oscillates with a frequency of 0.4Hz g=10m/s2 , ^=3.142
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

For simple pendulum the formula is

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

Where T is time period , l is length and g is acceleration due to gravity .

\frac{1}{n} =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

n is frequency

Putting the values

\frac{1}{.4} =2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{10} }

\frac{l}{10} = .1584

l = 1.584 m
