Answer:

F= 5000 N

Explanation:

This problem is related to force on a body, and to tackle it we need to apply newtons first law of motion which states that "a body will continue to be at rest or uniform motion except acted upon by an external force greater than the force keeping the body at rest or uniform motion"

given

mass m= 200kg

acceleration a= 25 m/s

we know that

F= ma

F= 200*25

F= 5000 N

In the interaction between a hammer and the nail it hits, is a force exerted on the nail? On the hammer? How many forces occur i

Vikki [24]

When you hit a hammer on the head of a nail, all the momentum associated with hammer is transferred into nail. And due to this, the surface of nail gets deformed or if you touch it you can feel the rise in temperature. When you hit a hammer on nail, hammer exerts force on nail and by Newton's 3rd law, nail will also exert a force on the hammer perpendicular to the surface of the hammer of same magnitude but its direction will be reversed. Thus, only 2 forces acts in this interaction and they are action-reaction pairs.

A 10.0 cm object is 5.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 12 cm. What is the distance between the image and th

fiasKO [112]

Let's use the mirror equation to solve the problem:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}$
where f is the focal length of the mirror, $d_o$ the distance of the object from the mirror, and $d_i$ the distance of the image from the mirror.
For a concave mirror, for the sign convention f is considered to be positive. So we can solve the equation for $d_i$ by using the numbers given in the text of the problem:
$\frac{1}{12 cm}= \frac{1}{5 cm}+ \frac{1}{d_i}$
$\frac{1}{d_i}= -\frac{7}{60 cm}$
$d_i = -8.6 cm$
Where the negative sign means that the image is virtual, so it is located behind the mirror, at 8.6 cm from the center of the mirror.
