A student must determine the relationship between the inertial mass of an object, the net force exerted on the object, and the o

bject’s acceleration. The student uses the following procedure. The object is known to have an inertial mass of 1.0kg .
Step 1: Place the object on a horizontal surface such that frictional forces can be considered to be negligible.

Step 2: Attach a force probe to the object.

Step 3: Hang a motion detector above the object so that the front of the motion detector is pointed toward the object and is perpendicular to the direction that the object can travel along the surface.

Step 4: Use the force probe to pull the object across the horizontal surface with a constant force as the force probe measures force exerted on the object. At the same time, use the motion detector to record the velocity of the object as a function of time.

Step 5: Repeat the experiment so that the object is pulled with a different constant force.

Can the student determine the relationship using this experimental procedure?

Answer choices:

A) Yes, because Newton’s second law of motion must be used to determine the acceleration of the object.

B) Yes, because the net force exerted on the object and its change in velocity per unit of time are measured.

C) No, because the motion detector should be oriented so that the object moves parallel to the line along which the front of the motion detector is aimed.

D) No, because knowing the net force exerted on the object and its change in velocity per unit of time is not sufficient to determine the relationship.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In order to obtain data about the object’s velocity as a function of time, the object must move either toward or away from the motion detector.

A package is dropped from a helicopter moving upward at 15 m/s
daser333 [38]

The distance the package above the ground when it was released, s ≈ 530 meters

<h3 /><h3>What are kinematic equations?</h3>

The kinematic equation of motion gives the interrelationships of the variables of motion.The correct option for the distance the package above the ground when it was released, is the third option;

It is given that:

The velocity of the helicopter from which the package was dropped = 15 m/s

The time it takes the package to strike the ground = 12 seconds

The required parameter:

The height of the package from the ground when it was dropped

The kinematic equation of motion relating distance, s, time, t, acceleration due to gravity, g, initial velocity, u, and final velocity, v, is applied as follows;

The package continues the upward motion for some time, t₁, given as follows;

Upward motion of the package

v = u - g·t₁

v = 0 at highest point reached by the package;

Therefore;

0 = 15 m/s - 9.81 m/s²  × t₁

t₁ = 15 m/s/(9.81 m/s²) ≈ 1.5295022 seconds

The time the package takes to return to the initial starting point, t₂ = t₁

The time the package falls after returning to the point it was dropped, t₃, is given as follows;

t₃ = t - (t₂ + t₁) = t - 2 × t₁

∴ t₃ = 12 s - 2 × 1.5295022 s ≈ 8.940996 s

From the symmetry of the motion of a projectile, the velocity of the package when returns to its staring point where it was dropped = u (Downwards) = 15 m/s

The distance the package falls, s, which is the distance the package above the ground when it was released, is given as follows;

s = u·t + (1/2)·g·t²

s = 15× 8.940996  + (1/2) × 9.81 × 8.940996² = 526.22755346 ≈ 530

The distance the package falls, s ≈ 530 m = The height of the

The distance the package above the ground when it was released, s ≈ 530 meters

Two people push on the same door from opposite sides as shown. A man pushes on a door from the left. A woman pushes on the door
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The door will move when the forces exerted by each individual becomes unbalanced.

Explanation:

The Door will only move when the forces exerted by each of the individual is unbalanced i.e. when the Torque is unbalanced

This is because there will only be a reaction or movement of an object  when the applied force > resistant force acting on the object.

example : An object at rest will only move when the applied force is  greater than the frictional forces acting on the object at rest.
