Answer:
a) Therefore 2.6km is greater than 2.57km.
Statement A is greater than statement B.
b) Therefore 5.7km is equal to 5.7km
Statement A is equal to statement B
Explanation:
a) Statement A : 2.567km to two significant figures.
2.567km 2. S.F = 2.6km
Statement B : 2.567km to three significant figures.
2.567km 3 S.F = 2.57km
Therefore 2.6km is greater than 2.57km.
Statement A is greater than statement B.
b) statement A: (2.567 km + 3.146km) to 2 S.F
(2.567km + 3.146km) = 5.713km to 2 S.F = 5.7km
Statement B : (2.567 km, to two significant figures) + (3.146 km, to two significant figures).
2.567km to 2 S.F = 2.6km
3.146km to 2 S.F = 3.1km
2.6km + 3.1km = 5.7km
Therefore 5.7km is equal to 5.7km
Statement A is equal to statement B
Answer:
Acceleration = 192.3 m/s² (Approx.)
Explanation:
Given:
Force = 125 N
Mass of ball = 0.65 kg
Find:
Acceleration
Computation:
We know that;
Acceleration = Force / Mas
So,
Acceleration = 125 / 0.65
Acceleration = 192.3 m/s² (Approx.)
6. Since we are not sure if the person in the question is actively lifting the crate, we have to determine the downwards force of the crate due to gravity and compare it to the normal force.
F = ma
F = (15.3)(-9.8)
F = -150N
Since the downwards force of the crate is equivalent to the normal force, it means the person is applying no force in picking up the object. So to pick up a 150N object from scratch, you would have to exert more force than the weight of the object, so the answer is 294N.
7. Same idea as question 2.
First determine the weight of the object:
F = ma
F = (30)(-9.8)
F = -294N
The crate in question is not moving, so the magnitudes of the forces in the upwards and downwards direction has to equal to 0.
-294 + 150N + x = 0
x = 144N
So the person is exerting 144 N.
10. First find the force of block B to the right due to its acceleration:
F = ma
F = (24)(0.5)
F = 12N
So block B is moving 12N to the right relative to block A due to block A's movement to the left. However, block A is being applied a much greater force and is moving quicker to the left than block B is moving to the right of bock A. The force that is causing block B to experience the lower relative force to the right is because of the friction. To find the friction:
The sum of the forces in the leftward and rightward direction for block B must equal 12N.
75 - x = 12
x = 63N
So the force of friction of block A on block B is 63N to the left.
