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.

Un cuerpo se encuentra en reposo sobre una mesa horizontal. Entonces se puede afirmar que:
vazorg [7]

Answer:

C) solo III

Explanation:

Para solucionar este problema debemos analizar cada una de las opciones hasta llegar a la opcion valida.

I) el cuerpo pesa igual que su masa.

Esta opcion no puede ser ya que el peso de un cuerpo se define como el producto de la masa por la aceleracion gravitacion.

w=m*g

donde:

w = peso [N]

m = masa [kg]

g = aceleracion gravitacional = 9.81 [m/s²]

Como podemos ver el peso siempre sera mayar que la masa, ya que el peso es resultado de la multiplicacion de la masa por la gravedad.

II) Por medio de un analisis de fuerzas en el eje-y, la fuerza del peso se dirige hacia abajo mientras que la fuerza normal tiene igual magnitud, pero se dirige hacia arriba. Por esto la segunda opcion no puede ser.

III) El cuerpo se encuentra en equilibrio, es decir las unicas fuerzas que actuan sobre el cuerpo son el peso y la fuerza normal. Pero estas fuerzas son iguales y opuestas en direccion, por la tanto se cancelan y estan en equilibrio.

Esta es la opcion valida, la fuerza neta es nula.
