Answer:

<em>Fn = 50 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

The net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object.

When all the forces act in a single line, the direction of the forces is given by their signs. Positive signs are assumed to be up and left on both axes.

The box being raised by a force has a weight of W=-125 N. The negative sign indicates the weight points down. The accelerating force goes up and its value is F=175 N. The positive sign indicates this force pushes the box up.

The forces acting on the box are:

The weight W=-125 N

The accelerating force F=175 N

The net force is

Fn = W + F = -125N + 175 N

Fn = 50 N

If a subway train is moving to the left (has a negative velocity) and then comes to a stop, what is the direction of its acceler
Katen [24]

Answer:

The acceleration would be positive, pointing to the right.

Explanation:

The acceleration tells us how velocity changes every second. If the train stops, this means its velocity must go from a non-zero value to zero.

To reduce velocity, acceleration must point to the opposite direction. Since velocity is negative, acceleration must be positive.

Ask Your Teacher In the air over a particular region at an altitude of 500 m above the ground, the electric field is 120 N/C dir
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

A = Area

h = Altitude = 600 m

Electric flux through the top would be

-110A (negative as the electric field is going into the volume)

At the bottom

120A

Total flux through the volume

\phi=120-110\\\Rightarrow \phi=10A

Electric flux is given by

\phi=\dfrac{q}{\epsilon_0}\\\Rightarrow q=\phi\epsilon_0\\\Rightarrow q=10A\epsilon_0

Charge per volume is given by

\rho=\dfrac{q}{v}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10A\epsilon_0}{Ah}\\\Rightarrow \rho=dfrac{10\epsilon_0}{h}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\dfrac{10\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}{600}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

The volume charge density is 1.475\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^3

The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3 00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm
Nesterboy [21]

Q: The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3.00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm2. What downward force of magnitude must be applied to the small piston for the lift to raise a load whose weight is Fg = 15.0 kN?

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

From Pascal's principle,

F/A = f/a ...................... Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted on the larger piston, f = force applied to the smaller piston, A = cross sectional area of the larger piston, a = cross sectional area of the smaller piston.

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = F(a)/A ..................... Equation 2

Given: F = 15.0 kN = 15000 N, A = 200 cm², a = 3.00 cm².

Substituting into equation 2

f = 15000(3/200)

f = 225 N.

Hence the downward force that must be applied to small piston = 225 N
