Question

A woman pulls on a 6.00-kg crate, which in turn is connected to a 4.00-kg

Answer 1

Answer:

B. is subject to a smaller net force but same acceleration.

Explanation:

F = m*a

So because our force applied is constant from the women pulling on the rope which means the acceleration is the same on both the 4kg create and the 6kg create. The only thing that changes here is the mass of the creates, so there is more tension force between the women and the 6kg create then there is between the 4kg create and the 6kg. It takes less force to move the 4kg create therefore the tension force is less between the two creates.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that when force (F) is applied then both the crate will move together so both have same acceleration.

And from Newton's 2 nd law we have:

F= ma , where m= mass of crate and a is acceleration.

Now for crate of mass 4 kg we have:

F = ma = 4a Newton.    

For the crate of mass 6 kg we have:

F = ma = 6a Newton.    

Hence the crate having less mass is subjected with smaller net force .

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct answer is option 3 which is : is subjected to a smaller net force and has the same acceleration.
