Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting

Physics

kirill115 [55]3 years ago
7 0
There is only one force applying to the boy, which is gravity in that regard pointing from the chair down to earth. The gravity force "Fg" is equal to the mass "m" of the object multiply by the earth accelaration "g". And so F = 50kg.9.8m/s = 490Newtons (N)

A 3.2 kg particle starts from rest at x = 0 and moves under the influence of a single force Fx = 4 + 15.7 x − 1.5 x 2 , where Fx
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work: This can be defined as the product of force and distance. The unit of work is Joules (J). it can be expressed mathematically as

W = F×d

or

W = \int\limits^b_a {Fx} \, dx.................................. Equation 1

Where b = upper limit, a = lower limit, Fx = expression of force.

<em>Given: a = 0 , b = 1.3 m, Fx = 4 + 15.7x - 1.5x²</em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

<em>W = \int\limits^a_b {(4 + 15.7x - 1.5x^{2} )dx} \,</em>

W = ᵇ[4x + 15.7x²/2-1.5x³/3 +C]ₐ

Work = upper limit - lower limit

Work = ᵃ[4x + 15.7x²/2 - 1.5x³/3 +C] - [4x + 15.7x²/2 + 1.5x³/3 +C]ᵇ............... Equation 2

Substituting the values of a and b into equation 2

Work = [4(1.3) + 15.7(1.3)²/2-1.5(1.3)³/3 + C] - [0 +C]

Work = [5.2 + 26.53 -3.29 + C] - C

Work = 28.44 J

Work done by the force = 28.44 J.

A 1.4-kg block slides freely across a rough surface such that the block slows down with an acceleration of â1.25 m/s2. what is t
Marianna [84]

Mass of the block = 1.4 kg

Weight of the block = mg = 1.4 × 9.8 = 13.72 N

Normal force from the surface (N) = 13.72 N

Acceleration = 1.25 m/s^2

Let the coefficient of kinetic friction be μ

Friction force = μN

F(net) = ma

μmg = ma

μg = a

μ = \frac{a}{g}

μ = \frac{1.25}{9.8}

μ = 0.1275

Hence, the coefficient of kinetic friction is: μ = 0.1275

a boy looks at the reflection of his digital watch in a plane mirror and thinks the time is 10:11. what is the correct time?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

11:10 will be the time. reflection causes the object to be flipped when you see its image at the mirror

Class II levers like ankles and wheelbarrows are useful because they provide mechanical advantage, by amplifying the input force
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The solution and the explanation are in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

According to the diagram that is in the attached image, the EFFORT force at point A and the load is at O point. The torque due to weight is:

TA = W * (a * cosθ)

The torque due to effort at C point is:

TC = E * (b * cosθ)

The net torque is equal to 0, we have:

Tnet = 0

W * (a * cosθ) - E * (b * cosθ) = 0

E=W\frac{a}{b}

From the figure, you can observe that a/b < 1, thus E < W
