Two forces and are applied to an object whose mass is 13.3 kg. The larger force is . When both forces point due east, the object
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, It's important to remember F = ma, and in this problem m = 13.3 kg

This can be reduced to a simple system of equations problem.  Now if they are both going the same way then we add them, while if they are going the opposite way we subtract them.  So let's call them F1 and F2, with F1 arger than F2.  Now, When we add them together F1+F2 = (.723 m/s^2)*13.3kg and then when we subtract them, and have the larger one pushing toward the east, let's call F1 the larger one, F1-F2 = (.493 m/s^2)*13.3kg.  

Can you solve this system of equations seeing them like this, or do you need more help?

What do you think would happen to the force of attraction of two interacting charges if their distance apart is halved?
sweet [91]

Answer:

The new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Explanation:

The force of attraction or repulsion is given by the relation as follows :

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

Where

d is the distance between the interacting charges

F is inversely proportional to the distance between charges.

If the distance is halved, d'=(d/2), new force is given by :

F'=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d'^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(\dfrac{d}{2})^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\dfrac{d^2}{4}}\\\\=4\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F'=4F

So, the new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

fredd [130]

Answer:

0.25m²

Explanation:

We know that the summation of forces in the vertical direction is zero

So

PA-mg=0

A=mg/p

So

Substituting

A= 75* 9.8/3*10^-3

=0.25m² which is the total shoe area
