What is the net force on a truck if the force of friction is 31 N and the force of the engine is 79 N?

Physics

Answer:  C) 48 N forward

===================================================

Explanation:

Subtract the two forces, since they are working opposite one another.

79-31 = 48

The net force is 48 newtons forward. The truck is moving forward since the engine's force (79 N) is larger than the force of friction (31 N).

The force of friction cannot exceed the engine's force because friction only slows down an object, and does not push the object backward. In other words, if the object was stationary, then the ground isn't pushing the object backwards assuming you're on a level flat ground.

A police car waits in hiding slightly off the highway. A speeding car is spotted by the police car traveling at speed s = 27.6 m
andriy [413]

Answer:

t=\frac{2s}{a}=25.56s

Explanation:

The distance traveled by the speeding car will be d_s=st, where s=27.6m/s.

The distance traveled by the police car will be given by the formula:

d=v_{0}t+\frac{at^2}{2}, where a=2.16m/s^2 and v_0=0m/s since it departs from rest, thus having d=\frac{at^2}{2}.

The police car will reach the speeding car when those distances are the same, or s=d, so we will have:

st=\frac{at^2}{2}

Which means:

t=\frac{2s}{a}

This is the expression asked, but we can use our values:

t=\frac{2s}{a}=\frac{2(27.6m/s)}{(2.16m/s^2)}=25.56s

A proton, mass 1.67 × 10−27 kg and charge +1.6 × 10−19 c, moves in a circular orbit perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of
stellarik [79]

Time taken by proton to complete one complete circular orbit= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

Explanation:

For proton, the centripetal force required for circular motion is provided by the magnetic force,

so Fm= Fc

q v B = m v²/r

m= mass of charged particle

v= velocity

B =magnetic field

q= charge

r= radius of circular path

v= q B r/m

now v= r ω

ω= angular velocity

ω r = q B r /m

ω=q B /m

now ω= 2π/T where T =time period

so 2π/T=q B/m

T= 2 πm/q B

T= 2π (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)/ [( 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)* (0.9)]

T= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

Communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit where they stay directly over a fixed point on the equator as the earth
zalisa [80]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Given:
R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m, the radius of the earth
h = 3.58 x 10⁷ m, the height of the satellite above the earth's surface.
Therefore
R + h = 4.217 x 10⁷ m

In geosynchronous orbit, the period of rotation is 1 day.
Therefore the period is
T = (24 h)*(60 min/h)*(60 s/min) = 86400 s

The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(86400 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

Part (a)
The tangential speed is
v = (R+h)*ω
   = (4.217 x 10⁷ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s) 
   = 3066.7 m/s
   = 3.067 km/s

Part (b)
The centripetal acceleration is
a = v²/(R+h)
   = (3066.7 m/s)²/(4.217 x 10⁷ m)
   = 0.223 m/s²

Answers:
(a) The speed is 3.067 km/s
(b) The acceleration is 0.223 m/s²

Does the u declined adverb express time, place, or manner?<br> The squirll spotted us and ran away.
AVprozaik [17]
I feel like it expresses time, but if there is another answer and they say otherwise, then they are probably right.
Hope this helps!
