A uniform crate with a mass of 22 kg must be moved up along the 15° incline without tipping. The force P is horizontal. Determin
Paul [167]

Answer:

F_x=208.25\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a crate is 22 kg

It moved up along the 15 degrees incline without tipping.

We need to find the corresponding magnitude of force P. The force P is acting in horizontal direction.

It means that the horizontal component of force is given by :

F_x=F\cos\theta\\\\F_x=mg\cos\theta\\\\F_x=22\times 9.8\times \cos(15)\\\\F_x=208.25\ N

So, the horizontal component of force is 208.25 N.

Gravitational force acts on all objects in proportion to their masses. Why then, a heavy object does not fall faster than a ligh
guapka [62]

Answer:

This is because the acceleration of objects due to gravity is independent of the mass of the object and is constant for all objects, therefore, all objects fall with the same speed.

Explanation:

The weight of an object or force of gravity acting on an object on the surface of earth is a product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically, w = mg

where, m=mass of the object; g = acceleration due to gravity

Also, from newton's law of gravitation, gravitational force on the object ,F = GMm/r²

where G is the gravitational constant; M is mass of Earth; m is mass of object; r is the distance of separation between the object and the center of mass of the earth which is approximately the radius of earth.

Since the weight of an object is equal to the force of gravitation acting on it

W = F

mg = GMm/r²

g = GM/r²

The expression above is that of the relationship between the force of gravity acting on a body on the earth's surface, the weight of that body and the acceleration due to gravity, g.

It can be seen that the acceleration due to gravity g is independent of the mass of the object. Therefore, the acceleration of objects due to gravity is constant for all objects and all objects fall with the same speed.

vichka [17]
Traveling against currents usually takes longer. Kinda like walking against the wind, you feel the heaviness against your jacket as you push through it. Where when you walking with the wind, it kind of gives your a push. Same for with currents.
