Answer:

2872.8 N

Explanation:

We have the following information

m =n72kg

Δy = 18m

t = 0.95s.

From here we use the equation

Δy=1/2at2 in order to solve for the acceleration.

So a

=( 2x 18m)/(0.95s²)

= 36/0.9025

= 39.9m/s2.

From there we use the equation

F = ma

F=(72kg) x (39.9)

= 2872.8N.

2872.8N is the average net force exerted on him in the barrel of the cannon.

Thank you!

From the given scenario, 
                                           A/A0 = 0.75 = 0.5*(60/h)
The value of h from the equation is 144.565 minutes.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

(a) Ff = 3.95N

(b) Ff = 5N

Explanation:

(a) To find the friction force you use the second Newton law:

F=ma

But you take into account the applied force and the opposite friction force:

F_a-F_f=ma

you do Ff the subject of the formula and replace the values of the parameters:

F_f=F_a-ma=5N-(0.700kg)(1.5m/s^2)\\\\F_f=3.95N

(b) In the case of a motion with constant velocity you have that there is no acceleration. Hence:

F_a-F_f=0\\\\F_f=F_a\\\\F_f=5N
