Calculate force of each car:

P1 = 900 kg x 12m/s = 10,800

P2= 600 x 24 = 14,400

Degree of travel = arctan(14,300/10800)

Degree of travel = 53.1 N of E

7. A mother pushes her 9.5 kg baby in her 5kg baby carriage over the grass with a force of 110N @ an angle
jasenka [17]

Weight of the carriage =(m+M)g =142.1\ N

Normal force =Fsin(\theta) + W = 197.1\ N

Frictional force =\mu N=27.59\ N

Acceleration =4.66\ m\ s^{-2}

Explanation:

We have to look into the FBD of the carriage.

Horizontal forces and Vertical forces separately.

To calculate Weight we know that both the mass of the baby and the carriage will be added.

  • So Weight(W) =(m+M)\times g =(9.5+5)\ kg \times 9.8 =142.1\ Newton\ (N)

To calculate normal force we have to look upon the vertical component of forces, as Normal force is acting vertically.We have weight which is a downward force along with F_x, force of 110\ N acting vertically downward.Both are downward and Normal is upward so Normal force =Summation\ of\ both\ forces

  • Normal force (N) = Fsin(\theta)+W=110sin(30) + 142.1 =197.1\ N
  • Frictional force (f) =\mu N=0.14\times 197.1 =27.59\ N

To calculate acceleration we will use Newtons second law.

That is Force is product of mass and acceleration.

We can see in the diagram that F_y=Horizontal and F_x=Vertical component of forces.

So Fnet = Fy(Horizontal) - f(friction) = m\times a

  • Acceleration (a) =\frac{Fcos(\theta)-\mu N}{mass(m)} =\frac{(95.26-27.59)}{14.5}= 4.66\ m\ s{^2 }

So we have the weight of the carriage, normal force,frictional force and acceleration.

Which answer is a scientifically accurate description of velocity?
viktelen [127]

The boat traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

Explanation:

Velocity is a physical quantity that describes the rate of change of displacement with time.

   Velocity = \frac{Displacement}{time taken}

The quantity differs from speed in that it has both magnitude and direction.

From the options given above:

Displacement: The boat traveled in the north direction from the dock to a 200m mark.

Time taken: approximately less than 5 minutes was the duration of traveling.

This describes the boat's velocity accurately.

What type of energy results from the burning of wood or gasoline?
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Chemical energy

Explanation:

Chemical energy is energy stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules. Batteries, biomass, petroleum, natural gas, and coal are examples of chemical energy. Chemical energy is converted to thermal energy when people burn wood in a fireplace or burn gasoline in a car's engine.

What is happening when two waves with identical crests and troughs meet?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

When two waves meet in such a way that their crests line up together, then it's called constructive interference. The resulting wave has a higher amplitude. In destructive interference, the crest of one wave meets the trough of another, and the result is a lower total amplitude.
