A certain object is subject to two forces: a 10-N force straight up and a 10-N force straight down. A student states that since

both forces are in the vertical direction, the object cannot be moving horizontally. Why is this an incorrect conclusion?
A.
The vertical forces are balanced.
B.
Vertical net forces can cause horizontal motion.
C.
A horizontal force is not required for horizontal movement.
D.
Two vertical forces can combine to form a horizontal resultant force.

Answer:

C. Consider projectile motion. If an object starts out at some angle and only vertical forces (gravity) are present, the horizontal speed remains constant thruout the motion.

Simple physics question, check the document. Should take about 3-5 minutes.
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force that the 6.3 kg block exerts on the 4.3 kg block is approximately 41.9 N

Explanation:

Forces on block 4.3 kg are:

63N to the right and R21 (contact force from the 6.3 kg block) to the left

Net force on 4.3 kg block is: 63 N - R21

Forces on the 6.3 kg block are:

R12 to the right (contact force from the 4.3 kg block) and 11 N to the left.

So net force on the 6.3 kg block is: R12 - 11 N

According to the action-reaction principle the contact forces R21 and R12 must be equal in magnitude (let's call them simply "R").

Then, since the blocks are moving with the SAME acceleration, we equal their accelerations:

a1 = (63 N - R)/4.3 = (R - 11 N)/6.3 = a2

solve for R by cross multiplication

6.3 (63 - R) = 4.3 (R - 11)

396.9 - 6.3 R = 4.3 R - 47.3

369.9 + 47.3 = 10.6 R

444.2 = 10.6 R

R = 444.2 / 10.6

R = 41.90 N

A reaction that releases energy as it occurs is classified as a(n ________.
cluponka [151]
The reaction that releases energy is called an EXOTHERMIC process. This is a word from the prefix exo- which means to exit and from the root word therm which is a unit of heat which in turn is form of energy. This is the opposite process of ENDOTHERMIC process.
