Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.

Accomplished silver workers in india can pound silver into incredibly thin sheets, as thin as 3.00 10-7 m (about one-hundredth o
postnew [5]
The density of silver is ρ = 10500 kg/m³ approximately.

Given:
m = 1.70 kg, the mass of silver
t = 3.0 x 10⁻⁷ m, the thickness of the sheet

Let A be the area.
Then, by definition,
m = (t*A)*ρ

Therefore
A = m/(t*ρ)
    = (1.7 kg)/ [(3.0 x 10⁻⁷ m)*(10500 kg/m³)]
    = 539.7 m²

Answer: 539.7 m²

015 10.0 points
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

20.996 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity, u=0 \textrm{ m/s}

Final velocity, v=12.4062 \textrm{ m/s}

Total time taken, t_{Total} = 7.13 s.

∴ Acceleration is given as,

a=\frac{v-u}{t_{Total}}=\frac{12.4062-0}{7.13}=1.74 m/s²

Now, using Newton's equation of motion, we find the displacement.

Displacement is given as:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}

Plug in 0 for u, 4.91257 for t and 1.74 for a. Solve for s.

This gives,

s=0+\frac{1}{2} \times 1.74 \times (4.91257)^{2}=20.996 \textrm{ m}

Therefore, the train's displacement in the first 4.91257 s of motion is 20.996 m.

The rectangular boat shown below has base dimensions 10.0 cm × 8.0 cm. Each cube has a mass of 40 g, and the liquid in the tank
Paladinen [302]

When boat is sunk into the liquid the net buoyancy on the boat is counterbalanced by weight of the boat

So here weight of the boat = Buoyancy force

let say boat is sunk by distance "h"

now we can say

F_b = \rho * V * g

F_b = 1000*0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

now by above force balance equation we can write

m*g = F_b

0.040 * 9.8 = 1000 * 0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

0.040 = 8h

h = 5 * 10^{-3} m

so boat will sunk by total 5 mm distance
