Answer:
311,850 N
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law:

where
F is the net force applied on an object
m is the mass of the object
a is its acceleration
For the object in this problem,
m = 27 kg

Substituting, we find the force required:

Answer:
k = 3.5 N/m
Explanation:
It is given that the time period the bob in pendulum is the same as its time period in spring mass system:


where,
k = spring constant = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
m = mass of bob = 125 g = 0.125 kg
l = length of pendulum = 35 cm = 0.35 m
Therefore,

<u>k = 3.5 N/m</u>
Although the semi truck certainly has a larger mass, it is not in motion and therefore does not have any momentum. The bicycle however has both mass and velocity and therefore has the larger momentum of the pair.
The statement “When
an object is in orbit, it is falling at the same rate at which the Earth is
curving” is true. The speed of a satellite orbiting the earth depends only on
the mass of the earth and the mass of the satellite.
