If a person pulls a cart to the right at 5N of force and another person pulls to the left with a 15N of force? What is the net f

orce and it what direction
Physics

zepelin [54]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The net force is 10 [N] acting to the left

Explanation:

To solve this type of problem we must make a sum of the forces acting on the cart, since the forces are vectors, we know that vectors can be added, In this way forces that go in the same direction are added and forces in opposite directions are subtracted.

FL = force to the left = - 15 [N]

FR = force to the right = 5 [N]

FT = Resultant force [N]

- 15 + 5 = FT

FT = - 10 [N]

The negative sign tells us that the force acts to the left.

A 5 kg ball is sitting on the floor without moving. What is the momentum of the ball?
natita [175]

Answer:

The ball has no momentum

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the ball = 5 kg

The velocity of the ball = 0 (The ball is sitting on the floor without moving)

The momentum of the ball = The mass of the ball × Velocity of the ball

Therefore, the momentum of the ball = 5 kg × 0 m/s = 0

The momentum of the ball is zero, the ball has no momentum.

flipper (the dolphin) is out in the open ocean hunting tuna avec. he emits his pulse at 22khz and .42 seconds later he hears it
marusya05 [52]
First we need to find the speed of the dolphin sound wave in the water. We can use the following relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave:
v=\lambda f
where
v is the wave speed
\lambda its wavelength
f its frequency
Using \lambda = 2 cm = 0.02 m and f=22 kHz = 22000 Hz, we get
v=(0.02 m)(22000 Hz)=440 m/s

We know that the dolphin sound wave takes t=0.42 s to travel to the tuna and back to the dolphin. If we call L the distance between the tuna and the dolphin, the sound wave covers a distance of S=2 L in a time t=0.42 s, so we can write the basic relationship between space, time and velocity for a uniform motion as:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{2L}{t}
and since we know both v and t, we can find the distance L between the dolphin and the tuna:
L= \frac{vt}{2}= \frac{(440 m/s)(0.42 s)}{2}=92.4 m

The fulcrum is between the effort and the load
Inessa05 [86]

Class 1 lever

Explanation:

In a class 1 lever, the fulcrum is placed between the effort and the load. This lever systems is the most common.

  • The effort is the force input and the load is the force output
  • The fulcrum is a hinge between the load and effort.
  • Movement of the effort and load are in opposite directions.
  • There are other classes of lever like the class 2 and 3.
  • They all have different load, fulcrum and effort configurations
