A 4.60-kg sled is pulled across a smooth ice surface. The force acting on the sled is of magnitude 6.20 N and points in a direct

ion 35.0o above the horizontal. If the sled starts at rest, how fast is it going after being pulled for 1.15s?

Answer:

1.27 m/s

Explanation:

The force acting on the sled is F = 6.20 N. Since it is acting at an angle of 35° to the horizontal, its horizontal component which moves the sled forward is Fcos35. This force is the net force on the sled. So,

Fcos35 = ma where m = mass of sled = 4.60 kg and a = acceleration of sled

a = Fcos35/m = 6.20cos35/4.60 = 1.1 m/s².

We now know its acceleration. To find the sleds speed after time t = 1.15 s, we use v = u + at where u = initial velocity of sled = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest)

Substituting the remaining values of a and t into the equation, we have

v = u + at = 0 + 1.1 × 1.15 = 1.27 m/s

So, the sled goes 1.27 m/s fast after 1.15 s

A 2000 kg roller coaster is at the top of a loop with a radius of 24 m. If its speed is 18 m/s at this point, what force does it
levacccp [35]

Answer:

46620\ \text{N}

Explanation:

m = Mass of roller coaster = 2000 kg

r = Radius of loop = 24 m

v = Velocity of roller coaster = 18 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Normal force at the point will be

N-mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{2000\times 18^2}{24}+2000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow N=46620\ \text{N}

The force exerted on the track is 46620\ \text{N}.

On Earth, a brick has a mass of 10 kg and a weight of 5 lbs. What predictions could we make about the mass and weight of the bri
belka [17]

Answer:

Mass remains constant but weight reduces

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.

Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.

Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.

A hockey puck with mass 0.3 kg is shot across an ice-covered pond. Before the hockey puck was hit, the puck was at rest. After t
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The net friction force is 8.01 N

Explanation:

Net friction force = mass of hockey puck × acceleration

From the equations of motion

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v = 40 m/s

u = 0 m/s (puck was initially at rest)

s = 30 m

40^2 = 0^2 + 2×a×30

60a = 1600

a = 1600/60 = 26.7 m/s^2

The acceleration of the puck is 26.7 m/s^2

Net friction force = 0.3 × 26.7 = 8.01 N
