Answer:

The acceleration of the block is 0.98 m/s².

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of a box, W = 200 N

Horizontal force acting on the box, F = 100 N

Coefficient of sliding friction is 0.4

Net force acting on the box, $F_{net}=F-\mu W$

$F_{net}=100-0.4\times 200$

$F_{net}=20\ N$

Let a is the acceleration of the box. So,

$a=\dfrac{F_{net}}{m}$

Since, $m=\dfrac{W}{g}=\dfrac{200}{9.8}=20.40\ kg$

$a=\dfrac{20}{20.40}$

$a=0.98\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the block is 0.98 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

the friction force in the reverse direction is 200 *0.4=80 N.

the net forward force acting on the box is therefore

Fnet= 100 - 80 N

= 20 N

acceleration = Fnet / mass

=Fnet *g/(weight)

=20 *9.8/200 = 0.98 m/s^2

The vector position of an object is given by r what is the torque acting on the object about the origin when a force f = (−12.5i

attashe74 [19]

Let the vector position of the object in the (x-y) plane be
$\vec{r} = x \hat{i} + y \hat{j}$

The applied force is
$\vec{f} = -12.5 \hat{i}
$

By definition, the applied torque is
$\vec{T} = \vec{r} \times \vec{f} = (x\hat{i} + y\hat{j}) \times (-12.5y \hat{i}) = 12.5\hat{k}$

Answer: $12.5y \, \hat{k}$

Objects with masses of 165 kg and a 465 kg are separated by 0.340 m. (a) Find the net gravitational force exerted by these objec

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

(a) $F_{net}$ = 4.19 x $10^{-5}$ N, and its direction is towards $m_{2}$ .

(b) It must be placed inside a hollow shell.

Explanation:

Let, $m_{1}$ = 165 kg, $m_{2}$ = 465 kg, $m_{3}$ = 60 kg, and the distance between $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ is 0.340 m.

(a) Since $m_{3}$ is placed midway between $m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ , then its distance to both masses is 0.170 m.

From the Newton's law of universal gravitation,

F = $\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Where all variables have their usual meaning.

Then,

a. $F_{net}$ = $F_{23}$ - $F_{13}$

$F_{13}$ = $\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*165*60 }{(0.17)^{2} }$

= 2.25 x $10^{-5}$ N

$F_{23}$ = $\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*465*60 }{(0.17)^{2} }$

= 6.44 x $10^{-5}$ N

∴ $F_{net}$ = = 6.44 x $10^{-5}$ - 2.25 x $10^{-5}$

= 4.19 x $10^{-5}$ N

The net force exerted by the two masses on the 60 kg object is 4.19 x $10^{-5}$ N.

(ii) / $F_{net}$ / = / $F_{23}$ / - / $F_{13}$ /

= 6.44 x $10^{-5}$ - 2.25 x $10^{-5}$

= 4.19 x $10^{-5}$ N

(iii) The direction of the net force is to the right i.e towards $m_{2}$ .

(b) For the net force experienced by the 60 kg object to be zero, it must be placed inside a hollow shell.

A superhero swings a magic hammer over her head in a horizontal plane. The end of the hammer moves around a circular path of rad

Korolek [52]

Answer:

9.21954 m/s

54 m/s²

Angle is zero

Explanation:

r = Radius of arm = 1.5 m

$\omega$ = Angular velocity = 6 rad/s

The horizontal component of speed is given by

$v_h=\omega r\\\Rightarrow v_h=6\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow v_h=9\ m/s$

The vertical component of speed is given by

$v_v=2\ m/s$

The resultant of the two components will give us the velocity of hammer with respect to the ground

$v=\sqrt{v_h^2+v_v^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{9^2+2^2}\\\Rightarrow v=9.21954\ m/s$

The velocity of hammer relative to the ground is 9.21954 m/s

Acceleration in the vertical component is zero

Net acceleration is given by

$a_n=a_h=\omega^2r\\\Rightarrow a_n=6^2\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow a_n=54\ m/s^2$

Net acceleration is 54 m/s²

As the acceleration is towards the center the angle is zero.
