Newton’s Second Law establishes the relationship between mass, net applied force, and acceleration given by F=ma. Consider a 4 k

g box of holiday candy on a horizontal surface such as a table. There is a 10N applied force to the right and a 2N force to the left. The box accelerates with a magnitude of _________?

Answer:

a= 2 m/s^2

Explanation:

take to the right as positive

let Ftot be the total forces acting on the box , m be the mass of the box and a be the acceleration of the box.

Ftot = 10 - 2 = 8 N

and,

Ftot = ma

   a = Ftot/m

      = 8/4

      = 2 m/s^2

therefore, the acceleration of the box is of magnitude of 2 m/s^2.

In a shipping yard, a crane operator attaches a cable to a 1,400 kg shipping container and then uses the crane to lift the conta
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of crane m=1400\ kg

distance moved d=40\ m

Since it is moving with a constant velocity therefore net force on it is zero

Tension force=weight

T=mg

Work done by Tension T is

W_T=T\cdot d

W_T=1400\times 9.8\cdot 40

W_T=548.8\ KJ

Work done by Gravity will be equal in magnitude but opposite in sign and can be obtained by work energy theorem which states that change in kinetic energy of object is equal to work done by all the forces

W_T+W_g=0

W_g=-548.8\ KJ
