The value of the friction force is 5.4 N

Explanation:

In order to solve the problem, we have to write down the equation of the forces along the horizontal direction.

We have only two forces acting along the horizontal direction:

The horizontal component of the pull of the student, $F cos \theta$ , forward
The friction force, $F_f$ , backward

The resultant force must be equal to the product between mass and acceleration (Newton's second law), so we can write:

$F cos \theta - F_f = ma$

where:

F = 50 N is the force of pull of the student

$\theta=45^{\circ}$ is the angle relative to the horizontal

m = 20 kg is the mass of the box

$a=1.5 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

Solving the equation for $F_f$ , we find the value of the friction force:

$F_f = Fcos \theta -ma=(50)(cos 45^{\circ})-(20)(1.5)=5.4 N$

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line

poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

$v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s$

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

Help pls i need this right now

Answer:

The x-component of $F_{3}$ is 56.148 newtons.

Explanation:

From 1st and 2nd Newton's Law we know that a system is at rest when net acceleration is zero. Then, the vectorial sum of the three forces must be equal to zero. That is:

$\vec F_{1} + \vec F_{2} + \vec F_{3} = \vec O$ (1)

Where:

$\vec F_{1}$ , $\vec F_{2}$ , $\vec F_{3}$ - External forces exerted on the ring, measured in newtons.

$\vec O$ - Vector zero, measured in newtons.

If we know that $\vec F_{1} = (70.711,70.711)\,[N]$ , $\vec F_{2} = (-126.859, 46.173)\,[N]$ , $F_{3} = (F_{3,x},F_{3,y})$ and $\vec O = (0,0)\,[N]$ , then we construct the following system of linear equations:
