Answer:

Acceleration of tray and carton = 6.03 m/s²

Horizontal force exerted by tray in carton = 3.02 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of tray (M) = 1.00 kg

Mass of milk carton (m) = 0.50 kg

Force applied on the system (F) = 9.04 N

The tray and carton slide horizontally without friction.

The free body diagram of the system is shown below.

The net force acting on the tray and carton system is the constant force 9.04 N.

The total mass of the system is (M + m) = 1.00 kg + 0.50 kg = 1.50 kg

Now, according to Newton's second law:

Net Force = mass × acceleration

⇒ Acceleration = Net force ÷ mass

Therefore, the acceleration of the tray and carton is given as:

a=\frac{9.04}{1.50}=6.03\ m/s^2

Now, consider the free body diagram of the carton alone.

The forces acting on the carton is only the horizontal force (f) exerted by the tray.

So, from Newton's second law:

Net Force = mass × acceleration

f=ma\\f=0.50\times 6.03\\f=3.02\ N

Therefore, the horizontal force exerted by the tray on the carton is 3.02 N.

arsen [322]
No. She would be doing the same amount of work that way. Work is defined to be equal to the force multiplied by the distance. Carrying two bags at a time would cause her to exert twice the effort, so the total amount of work done in the end would still be the same.

Elena L [17]

According to Boyle’s law, For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, P (pressure) and V (volume) are inversely proportional.

Therefore,

P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}

Given P_{1} = 1 atm , V_{1} = 15 \ cubic \ meter and P_{2} = 0.75\ atm.

Thus,

V_{2} = \frac{P_{1}\times V_{1}  }{ P_{2} } = \frac{1\times 15}{0.75} =20 m^3

Tom says that insulation keeps out the cold. Explain why this statement is incorrect. What should Tom have said?
Zina [86]
There is no such thing as"cold", in the same way that there is no such thing
as "darkness" or "quietness".  "Darkness" is the absence of light, "quietness"
is the absence of sound, and "cold" is the absence of heat.

Tom should have said that insulation <em>keeps the heat in</em> .
