Answer:

So the conclusion is that in presence of air net force acting downward reduces for feather and hence falls slower than coin. But in absence of air resistance, net downward force is just equal to force due to gravity which is same for both coin and feather and hence they fall down at the same rate.

Two forces of magnitudes 4.0 Newtons and 3.0 Newtons pull on a box. The forces make an angle of 40° with each other. What is the

leonid [27]

Answer:

6.6 N

Explanation:

Let's take the direction of the force of 4.0 N as positive x-direction. This means that the force of 3.0 N is at 40 degrees above it. So the components of the two forces along the x- and y-directions are:

$F_{1x} = 4.0 N\\F_{1y} = 0$

$F_{2x} = 3.0 N cos 40^{\circ}=2.3 N\\F_{2y} = 3.0 N sin 40^{\circ} = 1.9 N$

So the resultant has components

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=4.0 N +2.3 N = 6.3 N\\F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y} = 0 + 1.9 N = 1.9 N$

So the magnitude of the resultant is

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}=\sqrt{(6.3)^2+(1.9)^2}=6.6 N$

And in order for the body to be balanced, the third force must be equal and opposite (in direction) to this force: so, the magnitude of the third force must be 6.6 N.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

14.4kJ

Explanation:

Work = Force x distance

W × h = mgh

Given that,

mass m, = 59.5kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height ,h = 16.2cm

convert to m is 0.162m

How much work = m x g x h

height is 0.162 x 152 steps

h = 24.624m

work = 59.5 x 9.8 x 24.624

= 14,358.25Joule

= 14.4kJ
