Wo siblings are arguing over what way to pull a 10 kg wagon. Boris wants to pull it to the right. Boris puts 220 N of force on t
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in a negative direction to the left

b)Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in a negative direction to the left

Explanation:

The coordinates x and y show the positive direction in x-axis ( to the right) and negative direction to the left. In north-south direction positive y values are to the north and negative values to the south

The free-body diagram shows 4 forces acting

In y-axis:

The weight ( P = m*g =  10 [kg]*9,8 [m/s²] = 98 [N] negative

Normal reaction force  Fn = P = 98 [N]  positive ( surface is frictionless)

∑Fy = 0     P - Fn = 0     P = Fn  = 98 [N]

In x-axis:

Boris pulling force to the right (positive ) 220 [N]

Natasha pulling force to the left ( negative) 250 [N]

∑Fx = m*a

220 [N] - 250 [N]  = 10 Kg * a                      [N] = Kg * m /s²

-30 [kg*m/s²]  = 10 * Kg * a

-30/10  =  - 3  m/s²  = a

Sign (-) means the direction of acceleration vector is to the left (the same direction of the movement )

Then net force acting on the wagon  30 [N] in negative direction to the left

Acceleration of the wagon 3 m/s² in negative direction to the left

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

k_{1}=20\ N/m

k_{2}=30\ N/m

k_{3}=15\ N/m

k_{4}=20\ N/m

k_{5}=35\ N/m

According to figure,

k_{2} and k_{3} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}

k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}

k=10\ N/m

k and k_{4} is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

k'=k+k_{4}

Put the value into the formula

k'=10+20

k'=30\ N/m

k_{1},k' and k_{5} is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}

Put the value into the formula

k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}

k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

A race car reaches the finish line and the driver slows down to come to a stop. If it takes the car 10 seconds to stop at a cons
boyakko [2]

Answer:

53.64 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

a = (v-u)/t............. Equation 1

Where a = acceleration of the car, v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, t = time.

make u the subject of the equation

u = v-at............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: a = -12 mph/s = -5.364 m/s², t = 10 seconds, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop)

Substitute these values into equation 2

u = 0-(-5.364×10)

u = 0+53.64

u = 53.64 m/s

1) 4°C : It has the highest density as shown on the graph.

2) Water expands when it freezes, making it less dense than just water.

3) The ice would sink to the bottom, then the rest of the water would freeze as well, the entire lake/river/whatever will freeze eliminating the organisms that live there.
