In what direction does an applied force move an object?

Answer:

In the same direction as the force

Explanation:

In the absence of external forces, an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion, staying in a rectilinear motion and with constant speed. However, when a force is applied to an object at rest, that force interrupts the object's rest and causes it to move in the same direction as the force.

The net force applied to an object is equal to the object's mass times the acceleration caused to the body by this force. The acceleration is in the same direction as the force.

In the same direction as the force, when a force is applied to an object it causes the object to accelerate in a certain direction which is dependent on the direction of the force applied by newton’s second law: F = ma.

When are magnets attracted and when are they repelled.
vova2212 [387]
Magnets are attracted when each of the different sides, most commonly known as "North" and "South", are facing each other. They repel when North and North, or South and South are facing each other.

One uniform ladder of mass 30 kg and 10 m long rests against a frictionless vertical wall and makes an angle of 60o with the flo
yuradex [85]

Answer:

   μ = 0.37

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the translational and rotational equilibrium equations.

We set our reference system at the highest point of the ladder where it touches the vertical wall. We assume that counterclockwise rotation is positive

let's write the rotational equilibrium

           W₁  x/2 + W₂ x₂ - fr y = 0

where W₁ is the weight of the mass ladder m₁ = 30kg, W₂ is the weight of the man 700 N, let's use trigonometry to find the distances

             cos 60 = x / L

where L is the length of the ladder

              x = L cos 60

            sin 60 = y / L

           y = L sin60

the horizontal distance of man is

            cos 60 = x2 / 7.0

            x2 = 7 cos 60

we substitute

         m₁ g L cos 60/2 + W₂ 7 cos 60 - fr L sin60 = 0

         fr = (m1 g L cos 60/2 + W2 7 cos 60) / L sin 60

let's calculate

         fr = (30 9.8 10 cos 60 2 + 700 7 cos 60) / (10 sin 60)

         fr = (735 + 2450) / 8.66

         fr = 367.78 N

the friction force has the expression

         fr = μ N

write the translational equilibrium equation

         N - W₁ -W₂ = 0

         N = m₁ g + W₂

         N = 30 9.8 + 700

         N = 994 N

we clear the friction force from the eucacion

        μ = fr / N

        μ = 367.78 / 994

        μ = 0.37

A 0.150-kg cart that is attached to an ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 3.58 N/m undergoes simple harmoni
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

E = 0.01 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 0.15 kg

The force constant of the spring, k = 3.58 N/m

The amplitude of the oscillations, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

We need to find the total mechanical energy of the system. It can be given by the formula as follows :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put all the values,

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.58\times (0.075)^2\\\\=0.01\ J

So, the value of total mechanical energy is equal to 0.01 J.

Physics HELP!
shusha [124]

Answer:

1. B

2. A

Explanation:

1. The displacement is the change in position.  At t = 0, x = 1.0.  At t = 8.0, x = 6.0.  So from t=0 to t=8, Δx = 6.0 − 1.0 = 5.0.

2. The instantaneous velocity is the slope of the tangent line at any point of a position vs. time graph.

The average velocity is the displacement divided by the time interval.
