I'm gonna have to assume the girl is on the right side and boy on left.
The net force is the sum of all forces on an object (includes negatives).
Let's say the force of the boy is variable <em>b</em>. Use the formula F = ma.
<em>b </em>+ 3.5 = 0.2(2.5)
This is now simple algebra. Solve to get that <em />the boty is exerting a force of -3N to the left.
Answer:
Newtons (N)
Explanation:
Because the people in charge of defining SI units said so
Answer:
2m₁m₃g / (m₁ + m₂ + m₃)
Explanation:
I assume the figure is the one included in my answer.
Draw a free body diagram for each mass.
m₁ has a force T₁ up and m₁g down.
m₂ has a force T₁ up, T₂ down, and m₂g down.
m₃ has a force T₂ up and m₃g down.
Assume that m₁ accelerates up and m₂ and m₃ accelerate down.
Sum of the forces on m₁:
∑F = ma
T₁ − m₁g = m₁a
T₁ = m₁g + m₁a
Sum of the forces on m₂:
∑F = ma
T₁ − T₂ − m₂g = m₂(-a)
T₁ − T₂ − m₂g = -m₂a
(m₁g + m₁a) − T₂ − m₂g = -m₂a
m₁g + m₁a + m₂a − m₂g = T₂
(m₁ − m₂)g + (m₁ + m₂)a = T₂
Sum of the forces on m₃:
∑F = ma
T₂ − m₃g = m₃(-a)
T₂ − m₃g = -m₃a
a = g − (T₂ / m₃)
Substitute:
(m₁ − m₂)g + (m₁ + m₂) (g − (T₂ / m₃)) = T₂
(m₁ − m₂)g + (m₁ + m₂)g − ((m₁ + m₂) / m₃) T₂ = T₂
(m₁ − m₂)g + (m₁ + m₂)g = ((m₁ + m₂ + m₃) / m₃) T₂
m₁g − m₂g + m₁g + m₂g = ((m₁ + m₂ + m₃) / m₃) T₂
2m₁g = ((m₁ + m₂ + m₃) / m₃) T₂
T₂ = 2m₁m₃g / (m₁ + m₂ + m₃)
No. The correct one would be D .
