Answer:
m = 4
Explanation:
We have,
You apply a force of 600 N to the branch which acts as a lever. It means it is input force, IF = 600 N
The rear of the truck weighs 2,400 N. It means it is output force, OF = 2400 N
The ratio of output force to the input force is equal to the mechanical advantage of the lever arm. It is given by :

So, the mechanical gain of the lever arm is 4.
Answer:
22 N upward
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying newton's second law of motion
F = m(v-u)/t....................... Equation 1
Where F = Average force exerted by the ground on the ball, m = mass of the baseball, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time of contact
Note: Let upward be negative and downward be positive
Given: m = 0.14 kg, v = -1.00 m/s, u = 1.2 m/s, t = 0.014 s
Substitute into equation 1
F = 0.14(-1-1.2)/0.014
F = 0.14(-2.2)/0.014
F = 10(-2.2)
F = -22 N
Note the negative sign shows that the force act upward
Answer:
μ = 0.375
Explanation:
F = Applied force on the trash can = 75 N
W = weight of the trash can = 200 N
f = frictional force acting on trash can
Since the trash can moves at constant speed, force equation for the motion of can is given as
F - f = 0
75 - f = 0
f = 75 N
μ = Coefficient of friction
frictional force is given as
f = μ W
75 = μ (200)
μ = 0.375
