an ice skater applies a horizontal force to a 20.-kilogram block on frictionless, level ice, causing the block to accelerate uni

formly at 1.4 meters per second2 to the right. after the skater stops pushing the block, it slides onto a region of ice that is covered with a thin layer of sand. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the sand-covered ice is 0.28. calculate the magnitude of the force applied to the block by the skater. [show all work, including the equation and substitution with units.]

The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N

A car travels due east with a speed of 52.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth
serg [7]

Answer:

a) v = 6.43 m/s

b) v = 15.8 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of car = 56 km/h

56 km/h = 14.4 m/s

Angle rain makes on the glass to the vertical = 66°

Thus knowing that the opposite side of the angle is the distance moved by the car, and the adjacent side is the distance traveled by the rain in the same time

both of which are directly proportional to their velocities

Then

tan(66°) = 14.44m/s ÷ x

or x = 14.44/tan(66°)

Which is the vertical raindrop velocity of the relative to earth

v = 6.43 m/s vertically towards earth

For v relative to the car is we have vector sum of both velocities

v = √(14.44^2 + 6.43^2) = 15.8 m/s which is the velocity relative to car

= 15.8 m/s
