Can the normal force on an object be directed horizontally?

Physics

7 0

For this case, the first thing you should do is take into account the definition of normal force.

By definition, we have:

  • <em>The normal force is that which is exerted on an object that is perpendicular to the surface. </em>

If we define the coordinate system as:

  1. <em>Horizontal axis points to the right </em>
  2. <em>Vertical axis points up </em>

Then An object resting on a wall can have normal force in a horizontal direction.

Answer:

The normal force is perpendicular to the surface. The direction can be horizontal. Example: an object on a wall.

What height will the object reach? 12 points. Will give brainliest.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

12.7 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 56.7 Km/hr

Maximum height (h) =..?

First, we shall convert 56.7 Km/hr to m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (m/s) = 56.7 x 1000/3600

Initial velocity (m/s) = 15.75 m/s

Next, we shall determine the time taken to get to the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 15.75 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

v = u – gt (since the ball is going against gravity)

0 = 15.75 – 9.8 × t

Rearrange

9.8 × t = 15.75

Divide both side by 9.8

t = 15.75/9.8

t = 1.61 secs.

Finally, we shall determine the maximum height as follow

h = ½gt²

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 1.61 secs.

Height (h) =..?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 1.61²

h = 4.9 x 1.61²

h = 12.7 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the ball is 12.7 m

A girl wants to count the steps of a moving escalator which is going up. If she counts 60 steps going up and 90 coming down. How
brilliants [131]
Let

V the speed of the girl per step
v the speed of the escalator per step
L the length between ground and floor in number of steps

V*60+v*60=L => V+v=L/60
V*90-v*90=L => V-v=L/90

By adding the equations V+v=L/60 and V-v=L/90 we get:

2V=L(3+2)/180

V=5L/360

V = L/72

Time to climb (in steps) with v=0 (escalator standing still) is:

V*t=L

t = L/V

t = L/(L/72)

t =72 steps

The girl will count 72 steps.
