The correct answer to the question is  C i.e C represents the friction from air resistance.

EXPLANATION:

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand friction.

The friction is the opposing force which acts tangentially between two bodies in contact when there is a relative motion between them.

The air resistance is that frictional force which is provided by the air to the moving body through it. Hence, the friction from air resistance will be directed opposite to the motion of the body.

In the given diagram, the airplane is going horizontally. The force A acts in forward direction while force C acts in backward direction. The forces B and D are acting vertically.  There is no motion in vertical direction. Hence, the net force of A and C will cause the airplane to move.

As the plane is moving along the direction of A, the frictional force must act along the direction of C.

C, since friction is always going towards the opposite direction the object/person is traveling.

What is mass times acceleration?
frozen [14]

Answer:

Force

Explanation:

The mass of an object is the quantity of matter it contains. It is measured in kilograms.

Acceleration is the ratio of the change in the velocity of an object to the change in time. It is measured in m/s^{2}.

When the mass of an object is multiplied with its acceleration, this gives the average force applied on the object. As force is defined as agent that can change the state of an object.

i.e     F = m × a

where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.

The two major classes of force are; contact force and field force.

Alex is asked to move two boxes of books in contact with each other and resting on a rough floor. He decides to move them at the
Over [174]

Answer:

Part a)

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

F_c = 5.5 N

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the friction force on two boxes is given as

F_f = \mu m_a g + \mu m_b g

F_f = 0.02(10.6 + 7)9.81

F_f = 3.45 N

Now we know by Newton's II law

F_{net} = ma

so we have

F_p - F_f = (m_a + m_b) a

9.1 - 3.45 = (10.6 + 7) a

a = \frac{5.65}{17.6}

a= 0.32 m/s^2

Part b)

For block B we know that net force on it will push it forward with same acceleration so we have

F_c - F_f = m_b a

F_c = \mu m_b g + m_b a

F_c = 0.02(7)(9.8) + 7(0.32)

F_c = 3.6 N

Part c)

If Alex push from other side then also the acceleration will be same

So for box B we can say that Net force is given as

F_p - F_f - F_c = m_b a

9.1 - 0.02(7)(9.8) - F_c = 7(0.32)

F_c = 9.1 - 0.02 (7)(9.8) - 7(0.32)

F_c = 5.5 N
