(II) A 20.0-kg box rests on a table. (a) What is the weight of the box and the normal force acting on it? (b) A 10.0-kg box is p

laced on top of the 20.0-kg box, as shown in Fig. 4–43. Determine the normal force that the table exerts on the 20.0-kg box and the normal force that the 20.0-kg box exerts on the 10.0-kg box.

*Fig is Attached with answer*

Answer:

(a)   Weight = Normal Force = 196.2 N

(b)   Normal force table on 20 kg box = 294.3 N

       Normal force 20 kg box on 10 kg box = 98.1 N

Explanation:

(a)   Mass = m = 20 kg                           g = 9.81 m/s²

      Weight = w = mg

                      w = 20 × 9.81

                      w = 196.2 N

As the box rests on the table so, normal force (NF) must be equal to the weight of the box.

                    NF = w = 196.2 N

(b)

m₁ = 20 kg                      m₂ = 10 kg

total mass = M = 30 kg

Total Weight = W = Mg  

                             = 30 × 9.81

                             = 294.3 N

As both the boxes rest on the table so, normal force (NF) must be equal to the total weight of the boxes.

                          NF = W = 294.3 N

Weight of 10 kg box = 10 × 9.81 = 98.1 N

As the 10 kg box is placed on the top of 20 kg box, So 20 kg box must exert a normal force that is equal to the weight of 10 kg box.

              Normal Force = Weight of 10 kg box = 98.1 N

Frame S' passes frame S in the usual way. Two events are simultaneous in S'.
yuradex [85]

Answer:

c)They can also be simultaneous in S if their separation is zero.

Explanation:

By relativity theory, we can say two events when seen from two different reference frames can only be simultaneous when they are at the same space location and occur simultaneously in at least one reference frame, therefore when Frame S′ usually passes Frame S. Two occurrences in S′ are simultaneous, therefore these occurrences can be simultaneous in S when their separation is 0 (that is they are at the same location)

And therefore option c. If their separation is zero, they can also be simultaneous in S.

A man goes 150 m due east and then 200 m due north how far is he from starting point
grin007 [14]

Answer:

250 m

Explanation:

Since North and East are 90 degrees from each other, we can treat this as a right-angled triangle, with the distance in each direction being the sides and the distance from the starting point being the hypotenuse.

Hence, sqrt(150^2+200^2) = 250 m.

Hope this helped!

Please Help!<br><br><br>What is inertia? What does inertia depend on?
Lemur [1.5K]
Inertia is that quantity which depends solely upon mass. The more mass, the more inertia. Momentum is another quantity in Physics which depends on both mass and speed.
