Answer:

Rahul's weight

Explanation:

In fact, the force Rahul exerts on Earth corresponds to the force of gravity. But Rahul's weight is, in fact, the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on Rahul, and these two forces correspond to the action-reaction pair of Newton's third law, which states that the two forces are equal.

Using formulas, Rahul's weight is equal to

W=mg

where m is Rahul mass and g is the gravitational acceleration (g=9.81 m/s^2).

Hii please help i’ll give brainliest if you give a correct answer please please hurry it’s timed

Zina [86]

Answer: The answer is A for sure

Explanation:

That is, there will be no acceleration. If you are sitting at rest in a chair and the upward push of the chair is equal to the downward pull of gravity, you will stay at rest in the chair. ... You now have an unbalanced force acting on you and therefore, according to Newton's First Law, your motion is going to change.

Plz give brainlest :)

A 58 kg skier is going down a 35 degree slope. The areaof each

maxonik [38]

To solve this problem we will use a free body diagram that allows us to determine the Normal Force.

In general, the normal force would be equivalent to

$N = mgcos\theta$

Since the skier is standing on two skis, his weight will be divide by two

$N' = \frac{mgcos\theta}{2}$

Pressure is given as the force applied in a given area, that is

$P = \frac{F}{A}$

Replacing F with N'

$P = \frac{N'}{A}$

$P = \frac{\frac{mgcos\theta}{2}}{A}$

Our values are given as,

$m = 58kg$

$g = 9.8m/s^2$

$\theta = 35\°$

$A = 0.3m^2$

Replacing we have that

$P = \frac{\frac{(58)(9.8)cos(35)}{2}}{0.3}$

$P = 776.01Pa$

Therefore the pressure exerted by each ski on the snow is 776.01Pa

A small car with mass m and speed 2v and a large car with mass 2m and speed v both travel the same circular section of an unbank

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

(D) F/2

Explanation:

Since the circular section is unbanked, the centripedal acceleration acting on each of the cars is

$a_s = \frac{v_s^2}{r} = \frac{(2v)^2}{r} = \frac{4v^2}{r}$

$a_l = \frac{v_l^2}{r} = \frac{v^2}{r}$

Therefore the centripetal force on each car

$F_s = m_sa_s = \frac{4mv^2}{r}$

$F_l = m_la_l = \frac{2mv^2}{r}$

Since $F_s = 2F_l$ this means the friction force required to keep the large car on the road is only half of the friction force required to keep the small car on road

So (D) F/2 is the correct answer
