First determine the net force. Let's say the downwards force is negative and the upwards force is positive.
Since the forces act in opposite directions, the net force would be:
400N - 600N = -200N

Since I said negative is downwards, this translates to the net force being 200N downwards.

Force = mass*acceleration
200N = 60kg * acceleration
acceleration = 3.33 m/s^2

The sine ratio is the ratio formed by the hypotenuse over the side opposite the acute angle. True False
Paha777 [63]

Answer:False

Explanation:

The given statement is false

because the sine ratio is the ratio formed by the side opposite the acute angle to the hypotenuse

\sin (acute\ angle)=\frac{Perpendicular}{hypotenuse}

An object moving at 36 km/h reduces its speed to 18 km/h in 2sec. If the mass of the object is 20 kg, find the average force act
laiz [17]

Answer:

-50 N

Explanation:

Givens:

V_i = 36 km/h

V_f = 18 km/h

t = 2 s

m = 20 kg

First we have to convert our km/h into m/s:

(36 km*(1000 m/1 km)) / (60 min *(60 s/1 min)) = 10 m/s

(18 km*(1000 m/1 km)) / (60 min *(60 s/1 min)) = 5 m/s

a = (V_f - V_i)/t

a = (5 m/s - 10 m/s) / 2 s

a = -2.5 m/s^2

F = m(a)

F = 20 kg(-2.5 m/s^2)

F = -50 N

It's a negative force meaning its acting on it opposite its current direction of movement.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

F = 1280 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration experienced by a space shuttle, a = 32 m/s²

Mass of the astronauts, m = 40 kg

We need to find the force experienced by the astronaut.

We know that the net force is equal to the product of acceleration and its mass. So,

F = ma

F = 40 kg × 32 m/s²

So,

F = 1280 N

So, 1280 N of force is experienced by the Astronaut.

How to find the coefficient of friction without the force of friction or vice versa
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Finding the Force of Friction Without an Experiment

1.The following equation tells you the strength of the frictional force (with the static friction coefficient): F = μ s t a t i c N F=\mu_{static} N F=μstaticN.

2.If your surface is flat and parallel to the ground, you can use: ...

3.If it isn't, the normal force is weaker.
