Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term

for force in the above equation represents the net force on the object.
The forces creating the net force can lie in any direction.
The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.
The acceleration is directed in the same direction as the net force.
A zero net force indicates a state of equilibrium.

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.

A person carries a plank of wood 1.6 m long with one hand pushing down on it at one end with a force F1 and the other hand holdi
Elis [28]

Answer: 115.52\ N

Explanation:

Given

Length of plank is 1.6 m

Force F_1 is applied on the left side of plank

Force F_2 is applied 43 cm from the left end O.

Mass of the plank is m=13.7\ kg

for equilibrium

Net torque must be zero. Taking torque about left side of the plank

\Rightarrow mg\times 0.8-F_2\times 0.43=0\\\\\Rightarrow F_2=\dfrac{13.7\times 9.8\times 0.8}{0.43}\\\\\Rightarrow F_2=249.78\ N

Net vertical force must be zero on the plank

\Rightarrow F_1+W-F_2=0\\\Rightarrow F_1=F_2-W\\\Rightarrow F_1=249.78-13.7\times 9.8\\\Rightarrow F_1=115.52\ N

A 22-turn circular coil of wire has diameter 1.02 m. It is placed with its axis along the direction of the Earth's magnetic fiel
ollegr [7]

Answer:

ξ = 0.00845020162 V or 8.4 mV

Explanation:

Magnetic flux measures the total magnetic field that passes through a known area. Magnetic flux describe the effect of magnetic field in a given area. Mathematically,

magnetic flux (Ф) = BA cos ∅

where

A = test area

B = magnetic field

before the flip

Ф = Bπr²N

N = number of turn

magnitude of induced emf = N |ΔФ/Δt|

ξ  = 2Nπr²B/dt

ξ  = 2 × 22 × π × (1.02/2)² × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 44 × π × 0.51² × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 44 × π × 0.2601  × 0.000047/0.2

ξ = 0.0005378868  × 3.142/0.2

ξ = 0.00169004032/0.2

ξ = 0.00845020162 V or 8.4 mV

What does each system help you do?
Maru [420]

Explanation:

1.The somatic nervous system is the part of the peripheral nervous system associated with the voluntary control of body movements via skeletal muscles. 

2. The autonomic nervous system is a control system that acts largely unconsciously and regulates bodily functions, such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, pupillary response, urination, ect...

3. Sympathetic Division is a term used by researchers and medical practitioners to describe the subdivision of the autonomic nervous system (that controls involuntary and automatic physical reactions) that responds to emergency situations by mobilizing and controlling the energy necessary to cope with the situation.

4. The part of the autonomic nervous system that tends to act in opposition to the sympathetic nervous system, as by slowing down the heart and dilating the blood vessels. It also regulates the function of many glands, such as those that produce tears and saliva.

5. a regulatory substance produced in an organism and transported in tissue fluids such as blood or sap to stimulate specific cells or tissues into action.

A man pushes his child in a grocery cart. The total mass of the cart and child is 30.0 kg. If the force of friction on the cart
Ber [7]
Newton's second law states that the resultant of the forces applied to an object is equal to the product between the object's mass and its acceleration:
\sum F = ma
where in our problem, m is the mass the (child+cart) and a is the acceleration of the system.

We are only concerned about what it happens on the horizontal axis, so there are two forces acting on the cart+child system: the force F of the man pushing it, and the frictional force F_f acting in the opposite direction. So Newton's second law can be rewritten as
F-F_a = ma
or
F=ma + F_f

since the frictional force is 15 N and we want to achieve an acceleration of a=1.50 m/s^2, we can substitute these values to find what is the force the man needs:
F=(30 kg)(1.5 m/s^2)+15 N=60 N

Imagine you leave the dock on a fishing boat that travels east for 30 kilometers when the captain realizes he left the fishing r
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Average speed is 60 km/hr whereas average velocity is 0 km/ hr.

Explanation:

The average speed of the boat is 60 km/ hr while on the other hand, the average velocity of the boat is 0 km/ hr because average speed is the total distance covered by the boat in total time and average velocity is the displacement covered by the boat in total time. The total distance covered by the boat is 60 km and the total time is 60 minutes which is equals to one hour so the answer is 60 km/hr whereas the displacement is the shortest distance between initial and final position which is 0 in this case so 0 divided by 60 minutes or one hour is also 0.
