A horse pulls on a carriage. By Newton's third law, the carriage pulls back on the horse with equal force. Why do the action and

reaction forces just described not balance each other out?
A.
because this is not an action--reaction pair
B.
because action and reaction forces are not equal in magnitude in this case
C.
because action and reaction forces act in the same direction in this case
D.
because the action force acts on the carriage, while the reaction force acts on the horse

Answer:

By Newton's third law the cart must then exert an equal and opposite force on the horse. ... If it doesn't accelerate, and it started it rest, it must remain at rest (by the definition of acceleration), and therefore no matter how hard the horse pulls, it can never move the cart

Why does the gravitational field strength increase with latitude
otez555 [7]
The second major reason for the difference in gravity at differentlatitudes is that the Earth's equatorial bulge (itself also caused by centrifugalforce from rotation) causes objects at the Equator to be farther from the planet's centre than objects at the poles.

the 200 g baseball has a horizontal velocity of 30 m/s when it is struck by the bat, B, weighing 900 g, moving at 47 m/s. during
Ivanshal [37]

Solution :

Given :

Mass of the baseball, m = 200 g

Velocity of the baseball, u = -30 m/s

Mass of the baseball after struck by the bat, M = 900 g

Velocity of the baseball after struck by the bat, v = 47 m/s

According to the conservation of momentum,

Mv+mu=Mv_1+mv_2

(900 x 47) + (200 x -30)  = (900 x v_1) + (200 x v_2)

36300 =  (900 x v_1) + (200 x v_2)

9v_1 + 2v_2 = 363 ..............(i)

9v_1 = 363 - 2v_2

v_1=\frac{363 - 2v_2}{9}

The mathematical expression for the conservation of kinetic energy is

\frac{1}{2}Mv^2+\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}Mv_1^2+\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

\frac{1}{2}(900)(47)^2+\frac{1}{2}(200)(-30)^2 = \frac{1}{2}(900)v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}(200)v_2^2    ................(ii)

$(9)(14)^2+(2)(-30)^2 = (9)v_1^2+2v_2^2$  

21681 = 9v_1^2+2v_2^2

Substituting (i) in (ii)

21681= 9\left( \frac{363-2v_2}{9}\right)^2+2v_2^2

(363-2v_2)^2+18v_2^2=195129

(363)^2+18v_2^2-2(363)(2v_2)+(363)^2-195129=0

22v_2^2-145v_2-63360=0

Solving the equation, we get

v_2=96 \ m/s, -30 \ m/s

The negative velocity is neglected.

Therefore, substituting 96 m/s for v_2 in (i), we get

v_1=\frac{363-(2 \times 96)}{9}

     = 19

Thus, only impulse of importance is used to find final velocity.

A particle with positive charge q = 9.61 10-19 C moves with a velocity v = (5î + 4ĵ − k) m/s through a region where both a unifo
user100 [1]

Answer:

\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

Explanation:

The total force on the particle is given by

\vec{F}=q\vec{v}\ X\ \vec{B}+q\vec{E}

Then, by replacing we have:

q\vec{v}\ X \vec{B}=q[7\hat{k}-9\hat{j}-\hat{k}]\\\\q\vec{E}=q[5\hat{i}-\hat{j}-2\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(9.61*10^{-19}C)[(7+9)\hat{i}+(-9-1)\hat{j}+(-1-2)\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

where the cross product can be made with the determinant method.

Hope this helps!!
