Answer:
Apply Newton's second law in the moving direction.
Explanation:
Friction force applies in the opposite direction of motion; as a restriction.
Answer:
4086 J
Explanation:
The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff
Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance
Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be
KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J
since child is moving along with the wagon and we need to find the acceleration of child inside that wagon then in this case the system of interest must be child + wagon
System of interest will be the system that is used to find the force or acceleration using Newton's law
Here we have to assume that system on which if we will calculate the forces then the net value of force on that system will help to calculate the unknown quantities
So here our system will be boy + wagon
<h2>Answer: The astronauts are falling at the same rate as the space shuttle as it orbits around earth</h2>
The astronauts seem to float because they are in free fall just like the spacecraft.
However, although they are constantly falling on the Earth, they do not fall because the ship orbits at a sufficient speed (in the same direction of rotation of the Earth) so that the centrifugal force is balanced with the Earth's gravitational pull.
In other words:
The spaccraft and the astronauts are in free fall but the Earth's surface will never be reached as long as they does not decrease the speed.
Then, as they accelerate toward Earth (regardless of their mass), it curves beneath them and never comes close.
That's why astronauts, having the same acceleration as the spacecraft, feel weightless and see themselves floating.
The net force acting on the block is ~
So, the Answer in the boxes will be ~
