If a net force acting on a moving object causes its speed to increase, what

Answer:

It increases.

Explanation:

If a force acts in the same direction as the object's motion, then the force speeds the object up. Either way, a force will change the velocity of an object. And if the velocity of the object is changed, then the momentum of the object is changed.

A grocery cart with a mass of 16 kg is pushed at constant speed along an aisle by a force fp = 12 n which acts at an angle of 17
olga_2 [115]

Solution for this problem is we will be using the following formula:

Work done by applied force) = Force (applied) x s x cos θ

Where:

Force applied = 12 N

s = 13 m long

Angle = 17

So plugging in the values:


=>W (a) = 12 x 13 x cos 17

= 12 x 12.43196182

= 149.1835 J

A 10-kg wagon is pulled by a force of 70 Newtons while friction provides 20 Newtons of force. How much acceleration will the wag
kkurt [141]

Answer:

5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of wagon  = 10kg

Force of pull  = 70N

Frictional force = 20N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the wagon = ?

Solution:

Frictional force is a force that opposes motion.

The net force is given as:

   Net force  = mass x acceleration

 Force of pull  - Frictional force = mass x acceleration

 Insert the parameters and solve;

     70 - 20  = 10 x acceleration

       50  = 10 x acceleration

      Acceleration  = 5m/s²

A horizontal force of 90.0 N is required to push a 75kg object along a horizontal surface at a constant speed. What is the magni
Varvara68 [4.7K]
If the object is moving at a constant speed, acceleration is 0. So:

F = ma

F = m\times 0

F = 0

The resultant force is 0. So the force pushing the object must be equal to the friction force acting, so 

Friction = 90 N

Say you dropped a cannonball from the 17.0–meter mast of a ship sailing at 2.0 meters/second. How far from the base of the mast
Mice21 [21]

The correct choice is A. 0 meters.

If you simply dropped the cannonball and didn't throw it horizontally,

then it'll fall straight down the mast and land on the deck right next to

the mast.


While you were up there holding it, before you dropped it, the cannonball

was moving horizontally, at 2.0 meters/second, along with the rest of the

ship and everything else aboard. It continued doing that after it dropped,

and from the point of view (in the reference frame) of the mast and everyone

on the ship, it fell straight down, parallel to the mast.


Now that we have that question answered, we can proceed to the more-

important ones. I answered the easy one, but YOU'll have to answer these:


==> WHY did you climb the mast carrying a cannonball ?

Have you been drinking sea water or bad rum ?


==> WHY did you drop it, and never even yell "LOOK OUT BELOW !" ?


==> How many formerly-able-bodied souls were injured by the

plummeting cannonball ?


==> What did everybody ELSE yell after the impact ?


==> What did they do to you after they brought you down ?
