Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

A 48-kg woman pushes a 12-kg grocery cart with a force of 24 N. What is the magnitude of the force that the grocery cart exerts
Nata [24]

The correct answer is B. 24 N.

To figure out the exact force the cart exerts on the woman, we have to use Newton's third law of motion.  Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This means that if object  1 exerts a force on object 2 , object 2 will exert an equal but opposite force on object 1.

This law allows us to ignore the masses of the chart and the women and focus on the  pairs of forces the woman and the chart apply to each other.  Since the woman exerts a force of 24 N on the chart, the chart will exert a force of 24 N on the woman.

The correct answer is B. 24 N.

What is carried by a wave?
Nata [24]
Waves carry energy from one place to another. Because waves carry energy, some waves are used for communication, eg radio and television waves and mobile telephone signals. ... Some types of waves need to be transmitted through matter, either a solid, liquid or a gas. For example, water waves have to travel in water.

Kirchhoff's loop rule for circuit analysis is an expression of which of the following? Conservation of charge Conservation of en
Irina18 [472]

Kirchhoff's circuit laws are two equalities that deal with the current and potential difference (commonly known as voltage) in the lumped element model of electrical circuits. They were first described in 1845 by German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff. This generalized the work of Georg Ohm and preceded the work of Maxwell.

A man pushes on piano with mass 170 kg; it slides at constant velocity down a ramp that is inclined at 20.0 ∘ above the horizont
nikdorinn [45]

Answer

given,                            

mass of the piano = 170 kg              

angle of the inclination = 20°                

moves with constant velocity hence acceleration = 0 m/s²    

neglecting friction                                  

so, force required to pull the piano                    

F = m g sin θ                                                      

F = 170 × 9.81 × sin 20°                                        

F = 570.39 N                                                    

so, force required by the man to push the piano is F = 570.39 N
