In what direction does an applied force move an object?

Physics

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.

The net torce on an object moving with constant speed in circular motion is in which direction?
aleksley [76]

The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.

Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.

For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

Water enters a cylindrical tank through two pipes at rates of 250 and 100 gal/min. If the level of the water in the tank remains
tester [92]

Answer:

The total amount of water that enters the tank is:

250 gal/min + 100 gal/min = 350gal/min.

Then, if the level of the water remains constant, this means that the water leaves the tank at a rate of 350gal/min.

We know that the diameter of the pipe is 8 inches, then the area of the pipe is:

A = pi*(d/2)^2 = 3.14*(4in)^2 = 50.24in^2

now, the flow can be calculated as:

Q = v*A = (velocity*area)

if we want to write our velocity in inches per minute, then we need to write the entering flow in cubic inches:

1 gallon = 231 in^3

then:

350gal/min = (350*231) in^3/min = 80,850 in^3/min.

Then the water that leaves the tank must be the same amoun, we have:

Q = 80,850 in^3/min. = v*A = v*50.24in^2

v =  (80,850in^3/min)/50.24in^2 = 1609.3 in/min.

The velocity of the flow leaving the tank is 1609.3 in/min.
