Answer:
176,000 N
Explanation:
Newton's second law:
∑F = ma
F = (4 × 40,000 kg) (1.1 m/s²)
F = 176,000 N
Answer:
F_g = 372.78 N
Explanation:
Formula for force of gravity is;
F_g = mg
Where;
m is mass
g is acceleration due to gravity
We are given;
Mass = 38 kg
Acceleration due to gravity has a constant value of 9.81 m/s²
Thus;
F_g = 38 × 9.81
F_g = 372.78 N
The figure shows the arrangement of system
The velocity of boat can be resolved in to two
Horizontal component = vcos θ = 2.50 cos 45 = 1.768 m/s
Vertical component = vsin θ = 2.50 sin 45 = 1.768 m/s
Due to horizontal component the boat arrive arrives upstream,
Total horizontal velocity = 1.768 - Vr, where Vr is the velocity of river.
Total time taken to cross the river = width of river/ Vertical component of velocity
t = 285/1.768 = 161.20 seconds
So 118 meter is traveled at a velocity of 1.768-Vr in 161.20 seconds
That is 118 = (1.768-Vr)*161.20
1.768 - Vr =0.732
Vr = 1.036 m/s
So velocity of river flow =1.036 m/s
For physics, I would recommend to just keep doing practice problems and reviewing notes. Repetition of the same concepts will help drill it into your brain. Hope that helps!
