Answer:

2 N/m

Explanation:

Given that

The length of a wire, l = 15 m

Force on the wire, F = 60 N

Surface tension on the liquid, S = ?

The formula to solve this problem is given as

F = S * 2 L, where

F = force on the liquid

S = surface tension of the liquid

L= length of the wire

On substituting the values of each, we have

60 = S * (2 * 15)

S = 60 / 30

S = 2 N/m

Thus, we can say then, that the surface tension of the liquid is 2 N/m

3, A 4kg block is pushed 2m at an acceleration of 0.2m/s square up a vertical wall by a constant force F applied at an angle of
Andrews [41]

The work done by the applied force on the block against the frictional force is 15.75 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The work done by the applied force is calculated as follows;

W = Fd

F - Ff = ma

where;

  • F is applied force
  • Ff is frictional force

Fcos(37) - μmgsin(37) = ma

Fcos(37) - (0.3)(4)(9.8)sin(37) = 4(0.2)

0.799F - 7.077 = 0.8

F = 9.86 N

W = Fdcosθ

W = 9.86 x 2 x cos(37)

W = 15.75 J

Thus, the work done by the applied force on the block against the frictional force is 15.75 J.

How does newton's second law describe the motion of an object?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
