(a) 3675 N
Assuming that the acceleration of the rocket is in the horizontal direction, we can use Newton's second law to solve this part:
where
is the horizontal component of the force
m is the mass of the passenger
is the horizontal component of the acceleration
Here we have
m = 75.0 kg
Substituting,
(b) 3748 N, 11.3 degrees above horizontal
In this part, we also have to take into account the forces acting along the vertical direction. In fact, the seat exerts a reaction force (R) which is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the weight of the passenger:
where we used
as acceleration of gravity.
So, this is the vertical component of the force exerted by the seat on the passenger:
and therefore the magnitude of the net force is
And the direction is given by
Im not so sure but it should be the
instantaneous speed
No. A substance floats or sinks in another substance because of
the densities of both of them.
If the density of the substance is more than the density of the other
one, it will sink. If less than the density of the other one, it will float.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the charge on the ball bearing is q.
charge on glass bead, Q = 20 nC = 20 x 10^-9 C
Force between them, F = 0.018 N
Distance between them, d = 1 cm = 0.01 m
By use of Coulomb's law in electrostatics
By substituting the values
Thus, the charge on the ball bearing is
