Ignoring air resistance . . .

-- Gravity adds 9.8 m/s to the speed of a falling object every second.

-- After falling for 3 sec, it's falling (3 x 9.8) = 29.4 m/s faster
   than it was when it was dropped.

-- It started out with zero speed when it rolled off the top of the building,
   so its speed is  29.4 m/s after 3 seconds.

-- Its average speed all the way down is

               (1/2) (0 + 29.4)  =  14.7 m/s .

-- After traveling for 3 sec at an average speed of  14.7 m/s,
   it has traveled

                   (3 sec) x (14.7 m/s)  =  44.1 meters .

Three forces act on an object. Two of the forces are at an angle of 100◦to each other and have magnitude 25N and 12N. The third
seraphim [82]

Answer:

F₄ = 29.819 N

Explanation:

Given

F₁ = (- 25*Cos 50° i + 25*Sin 50° j + 0 k) N

F₂ = (12*Cos 50° i + 12*Sin 50° j + 0 k) N

F₃ = (0 i + 0 j + 4 k) N

Then we have

F₁ + F₂ + F₃ + F₄ = 0

⇒   F₄ = - (F₁ + F₂ + F₃)

⇒   F₄ = - ((- 25*Cos 50° i + 25*Sin 50° j) N + (12*Cos 50° i + 12*Sin 50° j) N + (4 k) N) = (13*Cos 50° i - 37*Sin 50° j - 4 k) N

The magnitude of the force will be

F₄ = √((13*Cos 50°)² + (- 37*Sin 50°)² + (- 4)²) N = 29.819 N

Answer:

<em>The net force acting on the object is 0 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Newton's Second Law of Forces</u>

The net force acting on a body is proportional to the mass of the object and its acceleration.

The net force can be calculated as the sum of all the force vectors in each rectangular coordinate separately.

The image shows a free body diagram where four forces are acting: two in the vertical direction and two in the horizontal direction.

Note the forces in the vertical direction have the same magnitude and opposite directions, thus the net force is zero in that direction.

Since we are given the acceleration a =0, the net force is also 0, thus the horizontal forces should be in equilibrium.

The applied force of Fapp=10 N is compensated by the friction force whose value is, necessarily Fr=10 N in the opposite direction.

The net force acting on the object is 0 N
