A sled is pushed to right with a force of 200 N. The force of friction opposing that motion is 50 N. a) What is the Net Force on
marin [14]

Answer:

Fr = 150 [N]

a = 5 [m/s²]

Explanation:

In order to find the resulting force, we must assume that the thrust force is positive to the right, while the friction force is negative to the left.

F_{r}=200-50\\F_{r}=150[N]

Now Newton's Second Law tells us that the sum of the forces or the resulting force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F = m*a

150 = 30*a\\a=150/30\\a = 5 [m/s^{2} ]

An athlete completes 1 laps around a track with a radius of 25 meters in 180 seconds. What is the magnitude of the athlete's tan
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

0.872<em>m/s</em>

Explanation:

Tangential velocity is given by the formula,

v= 2\pi r/ t

In the question given,

radius= 25meters

time= 180secs

pie= 3.14

number of laps= 1

The magnitude of tangential velocity equals;

\frac{1lap* 2 *3.14 *25m}{180secs}

<em>v </em>= 157<em>m</em>/180<em>secs</em>

Therefore, the magnitude of the tangential velocity

=0.872<em>m/secs</em>

A movie stunt driver on a motorcycle speeds horizontally off a 50.0 m high cliff. how fast must the motorcycle leave the cliff-t
Marina86 [1]
This is a projectile motion problem, so, we use the formula for trajectory:

y =xtanα + gx^2/2v^2(cosα)^2

where 
y is the vertical distance (y = 50 m)
x is the horizontal distance (x=90 m)
α is the angle of trajectory; since it levels of HORIZONTALLY, α = 0°
v is the initial velocity 
g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting to the formula,

50 =90tan(0°) + (9.81)(90)^2/2v^2(cos0°)^2
v = 28.2 m/s

The strategy implementation tool used to determine what actions are going to be taken, by whom, during what time frame, and with
oee [108]
It's called an action plan

As long as we could organize what actions that are going to be taken, when, where, and what could we achieve by that action, basically we can use anything as an action plan

Action plan is different from a to - do list because an action plan is goal oriented. As long as the goal already accomplished, we don't necessarily have to follow the remaining steps
