Answer:
Fg = 98.1 [N]; N = 98.1 [N]; Ff = 39.24 [N]; a = 2.076[m/^2]
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and interpret each of the forces acting on the box. In the attached diagram we can find the free body diagram.
The gravitational force is equal to:
Fg = (10 * 9.81) = 98.1 [N]
Now by summing forces on the Y axis equal to zero, we can find the normal force exerted by the surface.
N - Fg = 0
N = Fg
N = 98.1 [N]
The friction force is defined as the product of normal force by the coefficient of friction.
Ff = N * μ
Ff = 98.1 * 0.4
Ff = 39.24 [N]
By the sum forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the value of acceleration.
60 - Ff = m * a
60 - 39.24 = 10 * a
a = 2.076[m/^2]
Answer:
1. True
2. False
3. True
Explanation:
Newton's 2nd law states that the net force exerted on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:
(1)
where
is the net force on the object
m is its mass
a is the acceleration
Furthermore, we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity:

So let's now analyize the three statements:
1. A net force causes velocity to change: TRUE. Net force (means non-zero) causes a non-zero acceleration, which means that the velocity of the object must change.
2. If an object has a velocity, then we can conclude that there is a net force on the object: FALSE. The fact that the object has a velocity does not imply anything about its acceleration: in fact, if its velocity is constant, then its acceleration is zero, which would mean that the net force on the object is zero. So this statement is not necessarly true.
3. Accelerations are caused by the presence of a net force: TRUE. This is directly implied by eq.(1): the presence of the net force results in the object having a non-zero acceleration.

Answer:
B. 1500 kg*m/s
Explanation:
Momentum p = m* v
In any type of collision, the total momentum is preserved!
The total momentum before and the total momentum after the collision is the same. We know the mass and speed after the collision so we can calculate the total momentum.
p1 + p2 =
m1*v1 + m2*v2
m1 = me = 300 kg
v1 = 3 m/s
v2 = 2 m/s
Substitute the given numbers:
300*3 + 300+2
900 + 600
1500 kg*m/s, which is answer B.
Answer:
A. 2.36 Newtons
Explanation:
F = GmM/d²
F = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹(1)(5.98 x 10²⁴) / (1.3 x 10⁷)²
F = 2.36121...
Very poor question design.
mass of box... 1 significant digit
distance... 2 significant digits
mass of earth... 3 significant digits
value of G... 4 significant digits
Answer precision to 3 significant digits is not justifiable
