We calculate first for the normal force, Fn, which is equal to the product of the force and the cosine of the given angle,
                                         Fn = (15 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(cos 30°)
                                          Fn = 127.30 N
Then, to calculate for the Fg, we multiply the normal force by the given coefficient.
                                         Fg = (127.30 N)(0.15) = 19 N
The nearest value is letter A.

What is the net force on a truck if the force of friction is 31 N and the force of the engine is 79 N?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Fr = 48 [N] forward.

Explanation:

Suppose the movement is on the X axis, in this way we have the force of the engine that produces the movement to the right, while the force produced by the brake causes the vehicle to decrease its speed in this way the sign must be negative.

∑F = Fr

F_{engine}-F_{brake} =F_{r}\\F_{r}=79-31\\F_{r}=48[N]

The movement remains forward, since the force produced by the movement is greater than the braking force.

two horses are pulling a 325 kg wagon, initially at rest. The horses exert 250 N and 178 N forward forces, respectively. Ignorin
Dovator [93]

Answer:

AFter 3.5 s, the wagon is moving at:   4.62\,\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Let's start by finding first the net force on the wagon, and from there the wagon's acceleration (using Newton's 2nd Law):

Net force = 250 N + 178 N = 428 N

Therefore, the acceleration from Newton's 2nd Law is:

F=m\,*\,a\\a = \frac{F}{m} \\a= \frac{428}{325}\, \frac{m}{s^2} \\a\approx 1.32 \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

So now we apply this acceleration to the kinematic expression for velocity in an object moving under constant acceleration:

v_f=v_i+a\,*\,t\\v_f=0+1.32\,*\,3.5\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\v_f=4.62\,\,\frac{m}{s}

3. In some countries AC outlets near bathtubs are restricted to a maximum of 25 V to minimize the chance of dangerous shocks whi
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The average resistivity of the human body (apart from surface resistance of the skin) is about 5.0 Ωm. The conducting path between the right and left hands can be approximated as cylinder 1.6 m long and 0.10 m in diameter. The skin resistance can be made negligible by soaking the hands in salt water. (a) What is the resistance between the hands if the skin resistance is negligible? (b) if skin resistance is negligible, what potential difference between the hands is needed for lethal shock current 100 mA?

Solution:

The resistance (R) of a material is given by the formula:

R = ρL / A

where L is the length of the conductor, ρ is resistivity and A is the cross sectional area.

a) R = ρL / A

ρ = 5.0 Ωm, L = 1.6 m, A = π(diameter²) / 4 = π(0.1²)/4 = 0.00785 m²

R = 5(1.6) / 0.00785 = 1018.6 ohm

b) To produce 100 mA, we need to use ohms law:

I = 100 mA = 0.1 A, R = 1018.6 ohm

V = IR = 0.1(1018.6)

V = 101.86 V

Why is physics harder than math
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

General perception: Physics is harder than Mathematics. Why? Physics might be more challenging because of the theoretical concepts, the mathematical calculations, laboratory experiments and even the need to write lab reports.
