<h3>
Answer: 130 newtons</h3>
===============================================================
Explanation:
We'll need the acceleration first.
- The initial speed (let's call that Vi) is 8.0 m/s
- The final speed (Vf) is 0 m/s since Sam comes to a complete stop at the end.
- This happens over a duration of t = 4.0 seconds
The acceleration is equal to the change in speed over change in time
a = acceleration
a = (change in speed)/(change in time)
a = (Vf - Vi)/(4 seconds)
a = (0 - 8.0)/4
a = -8/4
a = -2
The acceleration is -2 m/s^2, meaning that Sam slows down by 2 m/s every second. Negative accelerations are often associated with slowing down. The term "deceleration" can be used here.
Here's a further break down of Sam's speeds at the four points of interest
- At 0 seconds, he's going 8 m/s
- At the 1 second mark, he's slowing down to 8-2 = 6 m/s
- At the 2 second mark, he's now at 6-2 = 4 m/s
- At the 3 second mark, he's at 4-2 = 2 m/s
- Finally, at the 4 second mark, he's at 2-2 = 0 m/s
Next, we'll apply Newton's Second Law of motion
F = m*a
where,
- F = force applied
- m = mass
- a = acceleration
We just found the acceleration, and the mass is fairly easy as all we need to do is add Sam's mass with the sled's mass to get 60+5.0 = 65 kg
So the force applied must be:
F = m*a
F = 65*(-2)
F = -130 newtons
This force is negative to indicate it's pushing against the sled's momentum to slow Sam down.
The magnitude of this force is |F| = |-130| = 130 newtons
Answer:
the force of attraction between all masses in the universe; especially the attraction of the earth's mass for bodies near its surface
Explanation:
A single fixed pulley can be used to raise or lower lightweight objects.
Option b
<u>Explanation:</u>
A pulley is a simple machine tool which is used to make lifting or lowering tasks easy. A single fixed pulley is a system involving only one pulley fixed on a constant rigid support with a rope wrapped around the wheel. Such a system can be used only to change the direction of applied force in raising or lowering small, lightweight objects which need minimal work force.
A single fixed pulley system helps only in redirecting the applied force direction by using a rope and wheel assembly. The work done in such a case remains the same and hence it is not preferred to use it in lifting heavy objects. Neither is the required force reduced in case of a single fixed pulley system. A movable pulley helps in achieving (A) and (C).
It is either the mass or density, I believe it is 3 density tho but it could be mass good luck:)
