Answer:

D Any of the above depending on the directions of forces.

Explanation:

The net force on the box depends on the direction of the forces.

For example, we have three special cases:

- If the two forces are in the same direction, they add to each other, so the net force is

F = 10 N + 10 N = 20 N

- If the two forces are in opposite directions, the net force is given by the difference between the two forces, so

F = 10 N - 10 N = 0 N

- If the two forces are perpendicular to each other, their resultant is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

F=\sqrt{(10 N)^2 + (10 N)^2}=14.1 N

If the two forces are at any other angle, their resultant can be found by resolving each force along the x- and y- direction, and adding the components along each direction. The resultant net force will have a magnitude between 0 N and 20 N.

A Smart Car, which has a mass of 1000 kg, is going 20 m/s. When it hits the barrier, it stops with a time of 0.5 seconds. What i
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.

Explanation:

Mass m = 1000 kg

speed v₁ = 20 m/s

speed v₂ = 0 m/s

We know that,

The change in momentum

ΔP = m (Δv)

ΔP = m (v₂ - v₁)

     = 1000 (0 - 20)

     = 1000 (-20)

     = -20000 kg m/s

Thus, the change in momentum = -20000 kg m/s.

Note: negative sign indicates that the velocity is reducing when it hits the barrier.

arsen [322]
The force applied would be 1.05*9.8 = 10.3 N
the pressure is equal to F/a
area will be πr^2 = 0.002826
thus pressure will be = 10.3/0.002826= 3644.72 N/m^2

A skateboarder has an acceleration of −1.9 m/s2. If her initial speed is 6 m/s, how long does it take her to stop?
SSSSS [86.1K]
You said that she's losing 1.9 m/s of her speed every second.

So it'll take

             (6 m/s) / (1.9 m/s²)  =  3.158 seconds  (rounded)

to lose all of her initial speed, and stop.
