How many forces are acting on a stationary raft floating in a swimming pool A1 B2 or C3

Physics

Hitman42 [59]3 years ago

There are at least two forces on it, and there could be more.

Vertical forces:
-- gravity, directed downward
-- buoyant force, directed upward
These two forces must be exactly equal, so that the net
vertical force on the raft is zero.  Otherwise, it would be
accelerating either up or down.

Horizontal forces:
We know that the net horizontal force on the raft is zero. 
Otherwise, it would be accelerating horizontally.

But we don't know if there are actually no horizontal forces
at all, or a balanced group of horizontal forces, that add up
to a net force of zero.

Covert 35000000 miles to meters and show how you got the answer?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

56327040000 metres

Explanation:

1 mile =

1609.344 metres

35000000 miles = x meters

we represent x by the number of meters which the requested miles maps to

we cross multiply, so 1609.344×35000000 = 1 × x

x =56327040000 metres

Two bullets of the same size, mass and horizontal velocity are fired at identical blocks, only one is made of steel and the othe
tatiyna

Answer and Explanation:

  • Since we're discussing shots, the significant thing is the way the energy is changed over as there is deceleration of the bullet to a halt when it hits something.
  • Kinetic Energy is relative to mass times speed squared, so in reality, the 2 cases given have practically indistinguishable Kinetic energy. The measure of energy is authoritative, so the two cases will do generally a similar harm given, obviously we look at situations when all the kinetic energy is spent.
  • One contrast that will be effectively obvious is that the weapon in the case of heavy bullet will recoil more.  
  • One can consider energy assimilation as force times separation distance, and energy ingestion as a product of force and time.
  • Henceforth, the heavier yet more slow bullet with a similar energy will venture to every part of a similar separation in the engrossing material, but since of bigger force, will take a more drawn out time doing it.
  • It will along these lines, additionally, give a more noteworthy "kick" to the object that absorbs.
