How do different forces act on a system

Physics
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
6 0
Different forces can have simillar magnitudes and same directions (but opposite), in this case the result will be nothing would happen. Or one of forces can be bigger than the other/s (in the same direction) so the system would accelerate (F=ma). Or there could be a situation with the same magnitudes but different directions, so the object (system) would accelerate in the direction of secant line (F=ma)

There are three long parallel wires arranged so that, in cross-section, they occupy the points of an equilateral triangle. Is th
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Yes, there is such a way.

Explanation:

If currents flow in the same direction in two or more long parallel wires, there will be an attractive force between the wires. If the current flows in different directions, there will be a repulsive force between the wires. In this case, these three parallel wires, can be be made to carry current in the same direction, creating an attractive force between all three wires.

Note that it is not possible to have at the least one of them carry current in the opposite direction and still have an attractive current between them.

A crane raises a crate with a mass of 150 kg to a height of 20 m. Given that
Virty [35]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

E_P= m \times g \times h

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

  • m= 150 kg
  • g= 9.8 m/s²
  • h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m

E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

E_p= 29,400 \ J

The crate has <u>29,400 Joules</u> of potential energy.

A spring has a length of 0.200 m when a 0.300-kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.750 m when a 1.95-kg mass hangs from it.
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The change in force = 9.81(1.95 - 0.300) = 16.2 N

The change in length is 0.750 - 0.200 = 0.550 m

K = ΔF/Δx = 16.2/0.550 = 29.4 N/m

A 10 g bullet is fired into, and embeds itself in, a 2 kg block attached to a spring with a force constant of 19.6 n/m and whose
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the bullet, m=10\ g=0.01\ kg
  • mass of block, M=2\ kg
  • stiffness constant of the spring, k=19.6\ N.m^{-1}
  • initial velocity of the spring just before it hits the block, u=300\ m.s^{-1}

<u>Now since the bullet-mass gets embed into the block, we apply the conservation of momentum as:</u>

m.u=(M+m).v

0.01\times 300=(2+0.01)\times v

v=1.4925\ m.s^{-1}

Now this kinetic energy of the combined mass gets converted into potential energy of the spring.

\rm Kinetic\ energy=Spring\ potential\ energy

\frac{1}{2} (M+m).v^2=\frac{1}{2} k.x^2

\frac{1}{2} \times (2+0.01)\times 1.4925^2=\frac{1}{2} \times 19.6\times x^2

x=0.478\ m is the compression in the spring
