Answer:

a.) 600N

b.) 2 m/s^2

Explanation:

a.)

In order to solve for the needed force, you must use Newton's 2nd law which states that a force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration.

Basically: Force = mass * acceleration ; F = ma

Since both mass and acceleration are already given, just plug them into the formula and solve for force:

Mass = 200kg

Acceleration = 3m/s^2

F = m * a = 200 * 3 = 600kg * m/s^2 = 600N

b.)

In order to find the acceleration, like the hint already says, you need to find the net force first and then use Newton's 2nd law.

To calculate net force:

Since both forces are parallel (affect the same axis) and in opposite directions, you can subtract the two in order to find resultant magnitude. The resultant direction is the direction of the force with the large magnitude.

Net Force: 8N - 4N = 4N

Net Force Direction: since 8N > 4N, the direction is in the same direciton as the 8N force = Left

Finally, you find acceleration using newton's 2nd law, F = ma.

Since you already know mass and net force, plug in to solve for acceleration:

4N = 2kg * a

a = 4 N / 2kg = 2m/s^2

What are the rules for setting up an integral of rotation?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Setting up an integral of rotation is used as a method of of calculating the volume of a 3D object formed by a rotated area of a 2D space. Finding the volume is similar to finding the area, but there is one additional component of rotating the area around a line of symmetry.

<span>First the solid of revolution should be defined. The general  function is y=f(x), on an interval [a,b].</span>

Then the curve is rotated about a given axis to get the surface of the solid of revolution. That is the integral of the function.

<span>It all depends of the function f(x), which must be known in order to calculate  the integral.</span>

You need to push a heavy box across a rough floor, and you want to minimize the average force applied to the box during the time
7nadin3 [17]

When pushing the body it is necessary to break the frictional force generated by the floor. Once this frictional force is overcome, the body will begin to move. Ideally, if a constant velocity is maintained or close to this value, the acceleration that will be exerted will tend to be zero and therefore, by Newton's second law the value of the Force will also tend to minimum values.

Remember that this law tells us that

F= ma

F= m \frac{\Delta v}{t}

Therefore the best strategy is A. keep pushing the box forward at a steady speed
