Newtons Second law

Force = mass x acceleration

Weight = mass x g

  • weight : the force that earth applies on an object
  • mass : the mass of the object
  • g : gravitational acceleration. Almost constant, around 9.81m/s^2 at the sea level. constant for given heights.

Given the above, the <u>more massive the object is, the larger the force acting upon it. </u>

THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT'l FALL FASTER since they both have the same acceleration (g). Just larger force to the larger mass.

Which occupies mrs space, 3m cubed or 100ft cubed
Slav-nsk [51]

The question is somewhat ambiguous.

-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about  '3 cubic meters'
or  (3m)³ which is actually 27 cubic meters.

-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about    '100 cubic feet'
or  (100 ft)³ which is actually 1 million cubic feet.

I'm going to make an assumption, and then proceed to
answer the question that I have invented.
I'm going to assume that the question is referring to
'three cubic meters'  and  'one hundred cubic feet' .

OK.  We'll obviously need to convert some units here.
I've decided to convert the meters into feet.

For 1 meter, I always use    3.28084 feet.

Then (1 meter)³ = 1 cubic meter = (3.28084 ft)³ = 35.31 cubic feet.

So 3 cubic meters = (3 x 35.31 cubic feet) =  105.9 cubic feet.

That's more volume than  100 cubic feet.

A 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

3.6 KJ

Explanation: Given that a 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m, and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

The workdone = the energy.

There are two different energies in the scenario - the potential energy (P.E ) and the kinetic energy ( K.E )

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 × 9.8 × 1.6

P.E = 1097.6 J

P.E = 1.098 KJ

K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 70 × 8.5^2

K.E = 2528.75 J

K.E = 2.529 KJ

The non conservative workdone = K.E + P.E

Work done = 1.098 + 2.529

Work done = 3.63 KJ

Therefore, the non conservative workdone is 3.6 KJ approximately

a crowbar of 2 meter is used to lift an object of 800N if the effort arm is 160cm , calculste the effort applied
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

The crowbar is 2 meter, or 200 cm.  The effort arm is 160 cm, so the moment arm of the object is 40 cm.

(800 N) (40 cm) = F (160 cm)

F = 200 N

Only two horizontal forces act on a 3.0 kg body that can move over a frictionless floor. one force is 9.0 n, acting due east, an
Zolol [24]
The first thing you should do for this case is to find the horizontal and vertical components of the forces acting on the body.
 We have then:
 Horizontal = 9-9.2cos (58) = 4.124742769 N.
 Vertical = 9.2sin (58) = 7.802042485 N
 Then, the resulting net force is:
 F = √ ((4.124742769) ^ 2 + (7.802042485) ^ 2) = 8.825268826 N
 Then by definition:
 F = m * a
 Clearing the acceleration:
 a = F / m
 a = (8.825268826) / (3.0) = 2.941756275 m / s ^ 2
 answer:
 The magnitude of the body's acceleration is
 2.941756275 m / s ^ 2

3. A horizontally moving tennis ball barely clears the net, a distance y above the surface of the court. To land within the tenn
maksim [4K]

(a) The ball’s maximum speed over the net is v(max) = √2gh.

(b) The maximum speed of the horizontally moving ball clearing the net is about 27 m/s.

(c) Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time of motion of the ball is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

1 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1 = 4.9t²

t² = 1/4.9

t² = 0.204

t = 0.452 s

<h3>Horizontal speed of the ball</h3>

The horizontal speed of the ball is calculated as follows;

X = vt

v = X/t

v = (12 m)/(0.452)

v = 26.6 m/s ≈ 27 m/s  (proved)

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

P.E = K.E

mgh = ¹/₂mv²

gh = ¹/₂v²

2gh = v²

√2gh = v(max)

Speed of the ball is independent of its mass.
