A magic medallion is suspended from a string inside a compartment of Hogwarts Express which is running straight westwards on hor

izontal tracks. a) Draw a free-free body diagram for the medallion if the train is moving at constant speed. b) Draw a free-body diagram for the medallion if the train is accelerating at a constant rate. Indicate acceleration and the direction of the net force. c) Calculate the angle the string makes with the vertical if the train accelerates at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s in 10 seconds. d) If the mass of the medallion is doubled, how will the angle change?

Answer:

a = 1 m/s²  and

Explanation:

The first two parts can be seen in attachment

We use Newton's second law on each axis

Y axis

      Ty - W = 0        

      Ty = w

X axis

     Tx = m a

With trigonometry we find the components of tension

    Sin θ = Ty / T

    Ty = T sin θ

    Cos θ = Tx / T

    Tx = T cos θ

We calculate the acceleration with kinematics

   Vf = Vo + a t

   a = (Vf -Vo) / t

   a = (20 -10) / 10

   a = 1 m/s²

We substitute in Newton's equations

     

  T Sin θ = mg

  T cos θ = ma

We divide the two equations

  Tan θ = g / a

  θ = tan⁻¹ (g / a)

  θ = tan⁻¹ (9.8 / 1)

  θ = 84º

We see that in the expression of the angle the mass does not appear therefore you should not change the angle

If there is an object in top of another object, why does the upper object exert a downward normal force?​
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

This is because normal force is exerted perpendicularly to the point of contact between the upper and lower objects.  

Explanation:

This is because the upper object is still subject to gravitational pull. Therefore, the amount of force it exerts on the lower object due to gravity will be equal to the normal force that acts in the negative direction of gravitational force. Additionally, normal force is evident because the upper object will not go into the lower object.

What is the equation for momentum? Please help need answer ASAP.
Leona [35]
Momentum is mass in motion and only applies to objects in motion. It's a term that describes a relationship between the mass and velocity of an object, and we can see this when it is written in equation form, p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass in kg and v is velocity in m/s.
