(a) 34.6 N

To solve the problem, we have to analyze the forces acting along the horizontal direction.

We have:

- Forward: the component of the pull parallel to the ground, which is

F cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the pull

\theta=30^{\circ} is the angle

- Backward: the force of friction, which is

F_f = 30 N

So, the equation of motion is

F cos \theta - F_f = ma

where

m = 20 kg is the mass of the wagon

a is the acceleration

In this part, the wagon is moving at constant speed, so a =0 and the equation becomes

F cos \theta - F_f = 0

Therefore, we can find the pulling force:

F=\frac{F_f}{cos \theta}=\frac{30}{cos 30}=34.6 N

(b) 43.9 N

In this case, the acceleration is

a=0.40 m/s^2

So, the equation of motion in this case is

F cos \theta - F_f = ma

So this time we have to take into account the term (ma).

Using the  same data as before:

m = 20 kg

\theta=30^{\circ}

F_f = 30 N

We find the new magnitude of F:

F=\frac{ma+F_f}{cos \theta}=\frac{(20)(0.40)+30}{cos 30}=43.9 N

Find the net force and acceleration. 15 points. Will give brainliest!
gladu [14]

Answer:

\boxed{F_{net} = 28.7 \ N}

\boxed{a = 2.1 \ m/s^2}

Explanation:

<u><em>Finding the net force:</em></u>

<u><em>Firstly , we'll find force of Friction:</em></u>

F_{k} = (micro)_{k}mg

Where (micro)_{k} is the coefficient of friction and m = 13.6 kg

F_{k} = (0.16)(13.6)(9.8)\\

F_{k} = 21.32 \ N

<u><em>Now, Finding the net force:</em></u>

F_{net} = F - F_{k}\\F_{net} = 50 - 21.32\\

F_{net} = 28.7 \ N

<u><em>Finding Acceleration:</em></u>

a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}

a = \frac{28.7}{13.6}

a = 2.1 \ m/s^2

A car is traveling north at 17.7 m/s . After 6 it’s velocity is 141 in the same direction. Find the magnitude and direction of t
Furkat [3]

By equation of motion we have   v = u + at

Where u = Initial velocity, v = final velocity, t = time taken and a = acceleration

Here v = 141 m/s, u = 17.7 m/s and t = 6 s

On substitution we will get

        141 = 17.7+ 6a

       So, a = (141-17.7)/6 = 20. 55 m/s^{2}

       Aceeleration = 20. 55 m/s^{2} along north direction.

What is a Pulley why is it used​
aleksley [76]

Answer:

A simple pulley is a wheel with a rope that allows you to pull one end and have it lift whatever is on the other end. A modern, common example of this is a crane, often used in construction.
