When Bella pushes a box with a mass of 5.25 kilograms with a force of 15.75 newtons, it accelerates at a rate of 2.5 meters/seco

nd2. What is the force due to friction?
I have no clue whats going on. Can anybody help me please!?!

Sure !

Start with Newton's second law of motion:

                     Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

This formula is so useful, and so easy, that you really
should memorize it.

Now, watch:

The mass of the box is 5.25 kilograms, and the box is
accelerating at the rate of  2.5 m/s² .
What's the net force on the box ?

                    Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                     = (5.25 kilograms) x (2.5 m/s²)

                     Net force =       13.125 newtons .

But hold up, hee haw, whoa !  Wait a second !
Bella is pushing with a force of 15.75 newtons, but the box
is accelerating as if the force on it is only 13.125 newtons.
What happened to the rest of Bella's force ? ?

==>  Friction is pushing the box in the opposite direction,
and cancelling some of Bella's force.

How much ?

            (Bella's 15.75 newtons) minus (13.125 that the box feels)

           =      2.625 newtons backwards, applied by friction.

Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the Sun, and the apparent brightness of the Sun in our sky is about 1300 watts/m2. Us
nalin [4]

Answer:

13 W/m^2

Explanation:

The apparent brightness follows an inverse square law, therefore we can write:

I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

where I is the apparent brightness and r is the distance from the Sun.

We can also rewrite the law as

\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} (1)

where in this problem, we have:

I_1 = 1300 W/m^2 apparent brightness at a distance r_1, where

r_1 = 150 million km

We want to estimate the apparent brightness at r_2, where r_2 is ten times r_1, so

r_2 = 10 r_1

Re-arranging eq.(1), we find I_2:

I_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}I_1 = \frac{r_1^2}{(10r_1)^2}(1300)=\frac{1}{100}(1300)=13 W/m^2

A toy doll and a toy robot are standing on a frictionless surface facing each other. The doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robo
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

<h3>1.43m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

According to newtons second law.

F = mass * acceleration

If the doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robot has a mass of 0.5 kg, the resulting mass will be 0.7kg

Force applied = 1N

acceleration = Force/mass

Substitute the values and get acceleration

acceleration = 1/0.7

acceleration = 1.43m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the acceleration of the robot is 1.43m/s²
