A 1502.7 kg car is traveling at 33.1 m/s when

Bond [772]

By definition of average acceleration,

<em>a</em> = (20 m/s - 33.1 m/s) / (4.7 s) ≈ -2.78 m/s²

Vertically, the car is in equilibrium, so the net force is equal to the friction force in the direction opposite the car's motion:

∑ <em>F</em> = (1502.7 kg) (-2.78 m/s²) ≈ -4188.38 N ≈ -4200 N

If you just want the magnitude, drop the negative sign.

Because it has to do with the motion of something, especially if it changes its pace. In this example, the book's motion, when sliding on the table, decreased because of less force being given off from the student.

A mass resting on a horizontal, frictionless surface is attached to one end of a spring; the other end is fixed to a wall. It ta

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

(a) 185 N/m

(b) 3.083 kg

Explanation:

(a)

Using,

E = 1/2ke²....................... Equation 1

Where E = work done to compress the spring, k = spring constant of the spring, e = compression of the spring.

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2E/e²............... Equation 2

Given: E = 3.7 J, e = 0.20 m

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(3.7)/0.2²

k = 185 N/m.

(b)

Using,

F = ma.............. Equation 2

Where F = force applied to the spring, m = mass attached to the spring, a = acceleration of the spring.

But from hook's law,

F = ke................. Equation 3

substitute equation 3 into equation 2

ke = ma

make m the subject of the equation

m = ke/a................ Equation 4

Given: k = 185 N/m, e = 0.2 m, a = 12 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

m = 185(0.2)/12

m = 3.083 kg

A 350-kg roller coaster car starts from rest at point A and slides down a frictionless loop-the-loop (Pig. P7.41). (a) How fast

Leona [35]

Answer:

a)Velocity of car =v=16 m/s

b)Force against the track at point B=1.15* $10^{4}$ N

Explanation:

Given mass of roller coaster=m=350 kg

Position of A=Ha=25 m

Position of B=Hb=12 m

Net potential energy=mg(ha-hb)

Net potential energy=(350)(9.80)(25-12)

Net potential energy=44590 J

Using energy conservation

net kinetic energy=net potential energy

(1/2)mv^2=mg(ha-hb)

m=350

velocity=v=16 m/s

b)There two force acting,centripetal force upward and gravity downward.

Thus net force acting will be

Net force=(mv^2/r)-mg

Net force=14933.33-3430

Net force=1.15* $10^{4}$ N
