Answer:
If the combination of all the forces acting on an object sums upto be zero, then the net force is known as <u>balanced force.</u>
If the combination of all the forces acting on an object is non-zero, then the net force is said to be <u>unbalanced force. </u>The unbalanced force causes the object change the state of rest or motion.
Answer:
17.71N/m
Explanation:
The period of the spring is expressed according to the expression;

m is the mass of the object
k is the force constant
Given
m = 5.50kg
T = 3.50s
Substitute into the formula;

Hence the force constant of the spring is 17.71N/m
Answer:
Zero
Explanation:
Impulse is defined as the change in momentum.
Impulse is also defined as the product of force and the time duration of application of the force.
In the given problem, since there is no motion in the vertical direction, therefore the velocity of the box along the vertical direction is zero. So, momentum of the box along the vertical is also zero.
Hence the change is momentum is also zero along vertical direction.
Thus the impulse delivered by the box is zero.
Explanation:
neglecting air resistance both will land at the same moment.
both have therefore the same acceleration.
Answer:
The magnitude of the force is 1.29*10^-3N in the positive x direction
Explanation:
In order to calculate the magnitude and direction of the force, you take into account that the force is the space derivative of the potential enrgy, as follow:
(1)
where:

You replace the expression for U into the equation (1) and solve for F:
(2)
The force on the particle, for x = -0.080m is:

The magnitude of the force is 1.29*10^-3N in the positive x direction
