Wo siblings are arguing over what way to pull a 10 kg wagon. Boris wants to pull it to the right. Boris puts 220 N of force on t

he wagon. Natasha wants to pull it to the left. Natasha puts 250 N of force on the wagon. A) What is the net force on the wagon?B) What is the acceleration of the wagon?(Both parts require you to include the direction with your numerical answer.)

Answer:

a) Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in a negative direction to the left

b)Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in a negative direction to the left

Explanation:

The coordinates x and y show the positive direction in x-axis ( to the right) and negative direction to the left. In north-south direction positive y values are to the north and negative values to the south

The free-body diagram shows 4 forces acting

In y-axis:

The weight ( P = m*g =  10 [kg]*9,8 [m/s²] = 98 [N] negative

Normal reaction force  Fn = P = 98 [N]  positive ( surface is frictionless)

∑Fy = 0     P - Fn = 0     P = Fn  = 98 [N]

In x-axis:

Boris pulling force to the right (positive ) 220 [N]

Natasha pulling force to the left ( negative) 250 [N]

∑Fx = m*a

220 [N] - 250 [N]  = 10 Kg * a                      [N] = Kg * m /s²

-30 [kg*m/s²]  = 10 * Kg * a

-30/10  =  - 3  m/s²  = a

Sign (-) means the direction of acceleration vector is to the left (the same direction of the movement )

Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in negative direction to the left

Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in negative direction to the left

If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/sm/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.5 m/sm/s in the opposite d
Yuliya22 [10]

Incomplete question as the mass of baseball is missing.I have assume 0.2kg mass of baseball.So complete question is:

A baseball has mass 0.2 kg.If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 44.5 m/sm/s and the batted ball's velocity is 55.5 m/sm/s in the opposite direction, find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and of the impulse applied to it by the bat.

Answer:

ΔP=20 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=0.2 kg

Initial speed Vi=-44.5m/s

Final speed Vf=55.5 m/s

Required

Change in momentum ΔP

Solution

First we take the batted balls velocity as the final velocity and its direction is the positive direction and we take the pitched balls velocity as the initial velocity and so its direction will be negative direction.So we have:

v_{i}=-44.5m/s\\v_{f}=55.5m/s

Now we need to find the initial momentum

So

P_{1}=m*v_{i}

Substitute the given values

P_{1}=(0.2kg)(-44.5m/s)\\P_{1}=-8.9kg.m/s

Now for final momentum

P_{2}=mv_{f}\\P_{2}=(0.2kg)(55.5m/s)\\P_{2}=11.1kg.m/s

So the change in momentum is given as:

ΔP=P₂-P₁

=[(11.1kg.m/s)-(-8.9kg.m/s)]\\=20kg.m/s

ΔP=20 kg.m/s

A refrigerator removes 55.0 kcal of heat from the freezer and releases 73.5 kcal through the condenser on the back.How much work
sammy [17]

Here refrigerator removes 55 kcal heat from freezer

Refrigerator releases 73.5 kcal heat to surrounding

So here we can use energy conservation principle by II Law of thermodynamics

the law says that

Q_1 = Q_2 + W

here we know that

Q_1 = heat released to the surrounding

Q_2 = heat absorbed from freezer

W = work done by the compressor

now using above equation we can write

73.5 = 55 + W

W = 73.5 - 55

W = 18.5 kcal

So here compressor has to do 18.5 k cal work on it

Answer:

Energy = 7.83 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Energy = 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of a photon in terms of wavelength can be calculated by the following formula:

Energy = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light

Now, for λ = 254 nm = 2.54 x 10⁻⁷ m:

Energy = \frac{(6.63\ x\ 10^{-34}\ Js)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{2.54\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}\\

<u>Energy = 7.83 x 10⁻¹⁹ J</u>

<u></u>

Now, for λ = 300 nm = 3 x 10⁻⁷ m:

Energy = \frac{(6.63\ x\ 10^{-34}\ Js)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{3\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}\\

<u>Energy = 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ J</u>
