A rock climber is going up a narrow space between two vertical rocks. The distance between the rocks allows the climber to brace

herself using friction, where her feet are flat and in contact with one rock to the left, and her legs are straight horizontal and her back is flat against a rock on the right. The coefficient of static friction between her shoes and the rock on the left is 1.2, and between the rock at right and her back is 0.8. The climber relaxes until she is on the verge of slipping on both sides.
(a) Draw a FBD for the climber
(b) What fraction of her weight is supported by the frictional force on her shoes?

How do you find the net force acting on an object?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

C. Add all the force vectors

Explanation:

The net force acting on an object is the vector sum of all the  forces on the object.

Remember, Newton's first law tells us a body at rest will remain at rest or that in uniform motion will continue in motion unless acted by unbalanced forces.These unbalanced forces act in all direction towards the body thus to get the net force you require a summation of all these force with respect to their magnitudes and directions.

For example a force of 3N towards the East direction acting on a body and another force of 2N towards the West direction on the same body will generate a net force of 1N towards the East direction.

*URGENT* Why is understanding motion so important? Be sure to explain in your own words.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Motion is one of the important issues of Physics. We know that if we are not moving but still earth is moving. Motion is a bit of the machinist's Department of Physics. Several laws are provided for explaining the theory of motion and evolution in motion. The motion and transformation are defined in terms of strength which is wanted for creating an object in a motion state.

A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 2.51×103 N forward push by the motor, and the other is a 1
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Acceleration a=0.455m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given that the force by the motor F=2.51\times 10^3N=2510N

Resistive force by the water F=1.88\times 10^3N=1880N

So net force F_{NET}=2510-1880=630N

Mass of the boat = 1384.1 kg

According to newton's second law F=Ma, here M is mass and a is acceleration

So 630=1384.1\times a

a=0.455m/sec^2
