Answer:

a) m₁ = m₂  F₁ₓ = F₂ₓ

b) m₁ << m₂   F₂ₓ =0

Explanation:

This interesting exercise is unclear your statement, so that in a center of mass system has an acceleration of zero it is necessary that the sum of the forces on each axis is zero, to see this we write Newton's second law

     ∑ F = m a

for acceleration to be zero implies that the net force is zero.

we must write the expression for the center of mass

        x_{cm} = 1 / M (m₁ x₁ + m₂ x₂)

now let's use the derivatives

      a_{cm} = d² x_{cm}/dt² = 1 / M (m₁ a₁ + m₂a₂)

where M is the total mass M = m₁ + m₂

     so that the acceleration of the center of mass is zero

               0 = 1 / M (m₁ a₁ + m₂a₂)

               m₁ a₁ = - m₂ a₂

In the case that we have components on the x axis, the modulus of the two forces are equal and their direction is opposite, therefore

   F₁ₓ = -F₂ₓ

b)r when the two masses are equal , in the case of a mass greater than the other m₁ << m₂

      acm = d2 xcm / dt2 = 1 / M (m1 a1 + m2a2)

so that the acceleration of the center of mass is zero

               0 = 1 / M (m1 a1 + m2a2)

               m1 a1 = - m 2 a2

with the initial condition, we can despise m₁, therefore

                0 = m₂a₂

 if we use Newton's second law

              F₂ = 0

       

I tell you that in this case with a very high mass difference the force on the largest mass must be almost zero

In boxing, the use of 16-ounce gloves rather than 12-ounce gloves reduces the chance of injury because the force is distributed
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Here we have assumed that increasing the mass of a glove will increase the surface area.

Injury is caused by the application of pressure at a point on the body. The application of pressure takes place via the area of the gloves. Pressure is given by

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

where

F = Force

A = Area to which the force is applied

So, a bigger glove will increase the surface area and reduce the pressure resulting in a lower chance of injury.

Hence, the statement is true.

.<br> Why are objects that fall near Earth's surface rarely in free fall?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Objects that fall near Earth’s surface are rarely in free fall.

"Free fall" is the situation where the ONLY force on an object is

the force of gravity, and nothing else.

Objects near Earth's surface are almost always surrounded by air.

If they are falling, then the air is exerting forces on them, and they

are not in "free fall".
