Answer:

Forces 1 and 2 cannot have equal magnitudes.

Force 1 exceeds force 2.

Explanation:

Numbering the given statements:

  1. The force of the horse pulling on the cart.
  2. The force of the cart pulling on the horse.
  3. The force of the horse pushing on the road .
  4. The force of the road pushing on the horse.
  • When a horse pulls a cart along a flat road starting from the state of rest, the horse applies a force on the ground in downward-back direction diagonally and as its reaction it moves forward. During this action there is also a reaction force by the road on the horse which exceeds the force of the horse on the ground and as a result the horse moves forward.
  • For pulling the cart the horse applies the force on  the cart  in the forward direction and as a reaction the cart applies a force on the horse in the backward direction which is less than the force of the horse on the cart resulting in the forward motion of the cart along with the horse.

If a 20 kg box is accelerating upward at 8 m/s^2 , what is the magnitude of the upward force
shusha [124]

Answer:

356 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion describes the relationship between an object's mass and the amount of force needed to accelerate it.  

here there is a weight acting downwards on the object , yet it is accelerating  upwards shows that there is a net force upwards

Applying Newtons second law of motion upwards ,

Force  = mass *acceleration

Upward force - m*g = m *a

F_up= 20 *8 + 20 * 9.8

         = 356 N

Upward force= 160 N

Ethylene glycol, the primary ingredient in antifreeze, has the chemical formula C2H6O2. The radiator fluid used in most cars is
disa [49]

Answer:

-30 °C

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the molality (m) of the solution. If the solution is 50% C₂H₆O₂ by mass. It means that in 100 g of solution, the are 50 g of solute (C₂H₆O₂) and 50 g of solvent (water).

The molar mass of C₂H₆O₂ is 62.07 g/mol. The moles of solute are:

50 g × (1 mol / 62.07 g) = 0.81 mol

The mass of the solvent is 50 g = 0.050 kg.

The molality is:

m = 0.81 mol / 0.050 kg = 16 m

The freezing-point depression (ΔT) can be calculated using the following expression.

ΔT = Kf × m = (1.86 °C/m) × 16 m = 30 °C

where,

Kf: freezing-point constant

The normal freezing point for water is 0°C. The freezing point of the radiator fluid is:

0°C - 30°C = -30 °C
