<h2>
Answer: C) He could have thrown the bag of money sideways, creating a horizontal reaction force on himself.</h2>
Explanation:
According to Newton's third law of motion, when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.
To understand it better:
Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude and direction but in the opposite direction on the first.
So, if the rich man had pushed the bag of money horizontally opposite of where he was, he could have saved himself.
Q = I t = 30 x 120 = 3600 C
Answer:
F = F2 - F1 where F is the net force upwards
F = 5 - (.5 * 9.8) = (5 - 4.9) N = .1 N
Since there is a net force in the upwards direction the rocket should experience an upwards acceleration.
Answer:
0.0078 N
Explanation:
The electrostatic force between two charges is given by Coulomb's law:
where:
is the Coulomb's constant
are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
The force is attractive if the two charges have opposite sign, and repulsive if the two charges have same sign.
In this problem, we have:
located at 
located at 
located at 
The force between charge 1 and charge 2 is:
And since the two charges have opposite sign, the force is attractive, so the force on charge 1 is towards the right.
The force between charge 1 and charge 3 is:
And since the two charges have same sign, the force is repulsive, so the force on charge 1 is towards the left.
Therefore, the net force on charge 1 is:
towards the right.
