If your weight is force created by gravity on your body, and therefore is the Earth pulling you down, what is the reaction force

?
Physics
1 answer:
IRISSAK [1]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The reaction force is the force exerted by your body on the earth pulling upwards.

Explanation:

This can be explained using Newton's third law of motion which states that if object A exerts  a force on object B, object B exerts a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction on object A. One characteristics of these force are that they act o 2 different bodies. In this example, the earth exerts a force on you. The Newton's reaction force would be you exerting a force of equal magnitude on the earth.

3. How is using a model to study cells helpful?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Yes, it is very helpful.

Explanation:

It's helpful since in a cell, plant or animal, there are a lot of different things. It's hard to memorize everything and know what they look like. Using a model can help you memorize everything better and even understand it better. If someone asked me where or what something was in a cell I think I would be able to recognize it better.

I hope this helps!

Does the under water pressure depend on the molecules of the air or what does it depend on
miskamm [114]

Answer:the pressure depends on gas and it will be half as much underwater

Explanation:

Water pressure increases with the depth of the water. This is because the weight of the column of water above the object increases. But a large, shallow pond may have more water in it than a small, deep pond.

This is due to an increase in hydrostatic pressure, the force per unit area exerted by a liquid on an object. The deeper you go under the sea, the greater the pressure of the water pushing down on you. For every 33 feet (10.06 meters) you go down, the pressure increases by one atmosphere .

Add the KE increase and the work done against friction.

The final velocity is twice the average, or 3.0 m/s
The final KE is (1/2)*25*3^2 = 112.5 J

The friction work done is 6*3.8 = 22.8 J

A loaded ore car has a mass of 950 kg. and rolls on rails ofnegligible friction. It starts from rest ans is pulled up a mineshaf
stiks02 [169]

(a) 10241 W

In this situation, the car is moving at constant speed: this means that its acceleration along the direction parallel to the slope is zero, and so the net force along this direction is also zero.

The equation of the forces along the parallel direction is:

F - mg sin \theta = 0

where

F is the force applied to pull the car

m = 950 kg is the mass of the car

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\theta=30.0^{\circ} is the angle of the incline

Solving for F,

F=mg sin \theta = (950)(9.8)(sin 30.0^{\circ})=4655 N

Now we know that the car is moving at constant velocity of

v = 2.20 m/s

So we can find the power done by the motor during the constant speed phase as

P=Fv = (4655)(2.20)=10241 W

(b) 10624 W

The maximum power is provided during the phase of acceleration, because during this phase the force applied is maximum. The acceleration of the car can be found with the equation

v=u+at

where

v = 2.20 m/s is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 12.0 s is the time

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{2.20-0}{12.0}=0.183 m/s^2

So now the equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the incline is

F - mg sin \theta = ma

And solving for F, we find the maximum force applied by the motor:

F=ma+mgsin \theta =(950)(0.183)+(950)(9.8)(sin 30^{\circ})=4829 N

The maximum power will be applied when the velocity is maximum, v = 2.20 m/s, and so it is:

P=Fv=(4829)(2.20)=10624 W

(c) 5.82\cdot 10^6 J

Due to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy transferred out of the motor by work must be equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by the car.

The change in potential energy of the car is:

\Delta U = mg \Delta h

where

m = 950 kg is the mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\Delta h is the change in height, which is

\Delta h = L sin 30^{\circ}

where L = 1250 m is the total distance covered.

Substituting, we find the energy transferred:

\Delta U = mg L sin \theta = (950)(9.8)(1250)(sin 30^{\circ})=5.82\cdot 10^6 J
