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.

Suppose you are an astronaut and you have been stationed on a distant planet. You would like to find the acceleration due to the
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

<h3> 1.40625m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;

v is the  final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given

u = 9m/s

v = 0m/s

t = 6.4s

Required

acceleration due to gravity g

Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.

v = u+(-g)t

0 = 9-6.4g

-9 = -6.4g

6.4g = 9

divide both sides by 6.4

6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4

g = 1.40625m/s²

Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is  1.40625m/s²

sergey [27]
The just-world phenomenon is the belief that everything that happens to an individual is due to the individual's actions; in other words, all good and all bad that an individual encounters in the world is deserved by that person. This leads to a victim being blamed with the logic that "they had it coming" and someone who encounters good fortune being praised with "they earned it". Therefore, in this scenario, people will assume that Rose's inheritance is well deserved.<span />
