Julli [10]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>Maximum=70 m</em>

<em>Minimum=26 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vector Addition </u>

Since vectors have magnitude and direction, adding them takes into consideration not only the magnitudes but also their respective directions. Two vectors can be totally collaborative, i.e., point to the same direction, or be totally opposite. In the first case, the magnitude of the sum is at maximum. Otherwise, it's at a minimum.

Thus, the maximum magnitude of the sum is 48+22 = 70 m and the minimum magnitude of the sum is 48-22= 26 m

An upward force of 32.6 N is applied via a string to lift a ball with a mass of 2.8 kg. (a) What is the gravitational force acti
Igoryamba

Answer:

a) Fg = -27.4 N

b) Fnet = 5.2 N

c) a = 1.9 m/s2

Explanation:

a)

  • There are two forces acting on the ball, one directed upward (assuming this direction as positive, along the y-axis) which is the tension on the string (lifting force), and another aimed downward, which is the attractive force due to gravity.
  • Applying the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation to a mass close to the surface of the Earth (in this case the ball), we can take the acceleration due to gravity like a constant, that we call by convention g, equal to -9.8 m/s2.
  • So, we can write the following expression for Fg:

       F_{g} = m*g = 2.8 kg*(-9.8m/s2) = -27.4 N (1)

b)

  • The net force on the ball, will be just the difference between the lifting force (32.6 N) and the force due to gravity, Fg:

       F_{net} = T -F_{g} = 32.6 N - 27.4 N = 5.2 N  (2)

c)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the acceleration caused by a net force on a point mass (we can take the ball as one) is given by the following expression:

       a = \frac{F_{net} }{m} = \frac{5.2N}{2.8kg} = 1.9 m/s2  (3)
