A dockworker applies a constant horizontal force of 90.0 N to a block of ice on a smooth horizontal floor. The frictional force
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The mass of the ice block is equal to 70.15 kg

Explanation:

The data for this exercise are as follows:

F=90 N

insignificant friction force

x=13 m

t=4.5 s

m=?

applying the equation of rectilinear motion we have:

x = xo + vot + at^2/2

where xo = initial distance =0

vo=initial velocity = 0

a is the acceleration

therefore the equation is:

x = at^2/2

Clearing a:

a=2x/t^2=(2x13)/(4.5^2)=1.283 m/s^2

we use Newton's second law to calculate the mass of the ice block:

F=ma

m=F/a = 90/1.283=70.15 kg

Austin buys a new moped he travel 3 km south and then 4 km east and then 3km north how far does he need to go to get back to whe
Ira Lisetskai [31]
The first thing to do is to define the origin of the coordinate system as the point at which the moped journey begins.
 Then, you must write the position vector:
 r = -3j + 4i + 3j
 Rewriting
 r = 4i
 To go back to where you started, you must go
 d = -4i
 That is to say, must travel a distance of 4Km to the west.
 Answer
 West, 4km.
