A hovercraft is being driven across a lake on a very windy day. The wind exerts a force of 5000 N north on the hovercraft. The p

ropellers driving the hovercraft also exert a force.
What is the net force (to 3.s.f ) on the hovercraft when the force applied to the hovercraft by the propellers is: 10 000 N west

Answer:

The net force on the hovercraft is 11200 N.

Explanation:

Given;

force exerted on the hovercraft by wind, F₁ = 5000 N north

force exerted on the hovercraft by the propeller, F₂ = 10,000 N west

The net force on the hovercraft is calculated as;

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2} \\\\F_{net} = \sqrt{5000^2 + 10,000^2} \\\\F_{net} = 11180.34 \ N\\\\F_{net} = 11200 \ N \ (3.s.f)

Therefore, the net force on the hovercraft is 11200 N.

Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is  y_c = 1.063 \  m from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the first object is  m_1 =  1.99 \  kg

   The position of first object with respect to origin y_1 =  2.99 \ m

   The mass of the second object is  m_2 =  2.96 \  kg

   The position of second object with respect to origin y_2 =  2.57 \ m

   The mass of the third object is  m_3 =  2.43  \  kg

   The position of third object with respect to origin y_3 =  0 \ m

   The mass of the fourth object is  m_3 =  3.96  \  kg

   The position of fourth object with respect to origin y_3 =  -0.502  \ m

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is  zero  because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

    y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

=>y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96  + 2.43 + 3.96}

=>y_c = 1.063 \  m
