It stops cause of gravitaional pull
Answer:
Part 1
20 N
Part 2
0.4 m/s²
Part 3
4 m/s
Explanation:
The force which pulls the sled right = 50 N
The friction force exterted towards left by the snow = -30 N
The mass of the sled = 50 kg
Part 1
The sum of the forces on the sled, F = 50 N + (-30) N = 20 N
Part 2
The acceleration of the sled is given as follows;
F = m·a
Where;
m = The mass of the sled
a = The accelertion
a = F/m
∴ a = (20 N)/(50 kg) = 0.4 m/s²
The acceleration of the sled, a = 0.4 m/s²
Part 3
The initial velocity of the sled, u = 2 m/s
The kinematic equation of motion to determine the speed of the sled is v = u + a·t
The speed, <em>v</em>, of the sled after t = 5 seconds is therefore;
v = 2 m/s + 0.4 m/s² × 5 s = 4 m/s.
The second statement is correct : Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards Earth's centre.
Using Kepler's third law which is defined as the square of the average distance is directly proportional to the cube of the period. It is expressed as P^2 = a^3, Given that the a = average distance is given, the period would be much easier to compute. P = sqrt(27^3) = 140
