Answer:

Fc = 123 Newton

Explanation:

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;

$Fnet = Fapp + Fg$

Where;

Fnet is the net force.

Fapp is the applied force.

Fg is the force due to gravitation.

Given the following data;

Normal force = 25N

Mass = 10kg

To find the centripetal force;

From the net force, we have the following formula;

Fc = N + mg

Where;

Fc is the centripetal force.

N is the normal force.

mg is the the weight of the object.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Fc = 25 + 10(9.8)

Fc = 25 + 98

Fc = 123 Newton

Which of these discoveries is generally attributed to kepler?

Ne4ueva [31]

The question is incomplete and no options are given but the answer is;
The orbit of Mars is an ellipse,<span> is generally attributed to Kepler.
Kepler's first law states that; "</span><span>The orbits of the planets are ellipses, with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse.
</span>The planet at that point takes after and follow the ellipse in its orbit, which implies that the distance between Earth and Sun remove is continually changing as the planet goes around its orbit.

The speed of a projectile when it reaches its maximum height is 0.58 times its speed when it is at half its maximum height. What

Ne4ueva [31]

Speed of the projectile at its maximum height is only along horizontal direction

so at highest point

$v_1 = v_x$

now when he is at half of the maximum height the speed will be in x and y direction both

$v_2 = \sqrt{v_y^2 + v_x^2}$

here it is given that

$v_1 = 0.58 v_2$

$v_x = 0.58\sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$2.97 v_x^2 = v_x^2 + v_y^2$

$1.97 v_x^2 = v_y^2$

also we know that

$v_y^2 = v_{iy}^2 - 2 g \frac{H}{2}$

here we know that maximum height is given as

$H = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2g}$

$v_y^2 = v_{iy}^2 - 2 g\frac{v_{iy}^2}{4g}$

$v_y^2 = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2}$

now from above

$1.97 v_x^2 = \frac{v_{iy}^2}{2}$

$1.98 v_x = v_{iy}$

also we know that angle of projection is

$tan\theta = \frac{v_{iy}}{v_x}$

$tan\theta = \frac{1.98v_x}{v_x}$

so angle is

$\theta = tan^{-1} 1.98$

$\theta = 63.3 degree$

Explain your observation in terms of force and Newtons 3rd law

Simora [160]

Answer:

If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A

Explanation:

the law of force show that focuses will always come in 2 or pairs and it also says that one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.
