Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the force exerted by the person is 100 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

Fn = ma

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The net force is the sum of all forces exerted over a body. When an object is moved along a rough surface it experiences two horizontal forces and two vertical forces (provided there is no vertical component of the applied force).

The vertical forces are the Normal and the Weight and they are balanced, i.e.: N = W = mg.

The horizontal forces are The applied force (Fa) and the friction force (Fr). They are not balanced because the object is accelerated in that direction. The net force is:

Fn = Fa - Fr

Applying the first equation:

Fa - Fr = ma

Solving for Fa:

Fa = Fr + ma

Substituting the given values m=5 kg, Fr=10 N, a=18\ m/s^2.

Fa = 10 + 5*18 = 10 + 90 = 100

Fa = 100 N

The magnitude of the force exerted by the person is 100 N

What happens when air from the balloon has exited the balloon? <br><br><br> How will motion change?​
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

When you release the opening of the balloon, gas quickly escapes to equalize the pressure inside with the air pressure outside of the balloon. The escaping air exerts a force on the balloon itself. ... That opposing force—called thrust, in this case—propels the rocket forward.

In a lab experiment, a student is trying to apply the conservation of momentum. Two identical balls, each with a mass of 1.0 kg,
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Second Trial satisfy principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

Given mass of ball A and ball B =\ 1.0\ Kg.

Let mass of ball A and B\ is\ m  

Final velocity of ball A\ is\ v_1

Final velocity of ball B\ is\ v_2

initial velocity of ball A\ is\ u_1

Initial velocity of ball B\ is\ u_2

Momentum after collision =mv_1+mv_2

Momentum before collision = mu_1+mu_2

Conservation of momentum in a closed system states that, moment before collision should be equal to moment after collision.

Now, mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2

Plugging each trial in this equation we get,

First Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(1)+1(-2)=1(-2)+1(-1)\\1-2=-2-1\\-1=-3

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Second Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1.5)=1(-.5)+1(-.5)\\.5-1.5=-.5-.5\\-1=-1

moment before collision = moment after collision

Third Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(2)+1(1)=1(1)+1(-2)\\2+1=1-2\\3=-1

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

Fourth Trial

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1)=1(1.5)+1(-1.5)\\.5-1=1.5-1.5\\-.5=0

momentum before collision \neq moment after collision

We can see only Trial- 2 shows the conservation of momentum in a closed system.
