Jake drags a sled of mass 18 kg across the snow. The sled is attached to a rope that he pulls with a force of 70 N at an angle o

If the 30 N on the rope were pulled straight up, it would offset the force of gravity ( m g = 10 kg * 9.8 N/kg = 98 N) , leaving a net force up from the ground on the sled of 98-30 = 68 N. Since the rope is pulled at the angle of 25o, only part of the force is in the upward direction, (30N)(sin(25) = (30)(.423) = 12.7. So the net force becomes 98 N down offset by 12.7 up or 98-12.7 = 85.3 N. Ah, there it is: C.

Answer: The normal force acting on the sled 131.4048 Newtons.

Explanation:

On breaking up force of 70 N into vertical and horizontal components:

Vertical components:f\cos\theta

Horizontal components:f\sin\theta

The normal force is force acting perpendicular on an object.It is a balanced force.

mg=N+f\sin\theta

N=mg-f\sin\theta=18 kg\times 9.8 m/s^2-70 N\times 0.6427=131.4048 N

The normal force acting on the sled 131.4048 Newtons.

suppose that 273 g of one of the substances listed above displaces 26 mL of water. What is the substance?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The unknown substance is silver. I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so 273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following: 10.07 Actinium 10.22 Molybdenum 10.5 Silver 11.35 Lead And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>

An airplane starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s2 for 30.0 s before leaving the ground. a. How far di
rosijanka [135]

The formula we can use in this case is:

d = v0t + 0.5 at^2

v = at + v0

where,

d = distance travelled

v0 = initial velocity = 0 since at rest

t = time travelled

a = acceleration

v = final velocity when it took off

 

a. d = 0 + 0.5 * 3 * 30^2

d = 1350 m

 

b. v = 3 * 30 + 0

<span>v = 90 m/s</span>

A weight lifter does 700J of work on a weight that he lifts in 3.1s. What is the power with
IgorLugansk [536]

Power = Work done/Time taken

So, keeping this in mind,we can solve it as follows:

= 700/3.1

= 7000/31

= 225.80 W
