A man pulls a 10 kg box at constant speed across the floor with a rope. The tension in the rope is 120 N at an angle of 30°.

Is it possible to have a net torque when all of the forces sum to zero? Explain.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

When two equal magnitude forces are acting on the rod in opposite direction

Then the net force on the system is always zero in that case

so we will have

$F - F = 0$

now for the system net torque due to these forces is given by

$\tau = F(r_1) + F(r_2)$

here we know that

$r_1, r_2$ = distance of the forces from reference about which torque is measured

so here we can say that net force is zero on the system while torque is not zero

in all such case object will rotate about a fixed position with change angular speed

A bus hits a bug and the bug splatters on the windshield, which force is greater?

grandymaker [24]

The forces acting on a body and the type of motion that results are given by Newton's three Laws of motion

The force of the bus is the same as reactive force of the bug

Reason:

According to Newton's third Law of motion, given that the bug collides

with the bus, the force with which the bus hits the bug is equal to the

reactive force of the bug on the on the bus

According to Newton's second Law of motion, force is equal to the rate of

change of the momentum produced

The impulse of the force of the bus on the bug is given as follows;

F·Δt = m·(v₂ - v₁)

Given that the force of the bus is large, the change in momentum, m·(v₂ - v₁),

is also large such that the parts of the bug are split by the rapid change in

velocity, and the bug splatters on the windshield, and is then carried along

on the trip,

The equally large reactive force of the bug, is such that the bug splatters

due its magnitude

Therefore, the correct response is that the forces are the same

Explain the role of energy in changes of state.

slava [35]

A liquid requires enthalpy of vaporization to transform into vapor or gas at its boiling point. Here the element absorbs heat from surroundings or heat source.

This energy is used in breaking the forces of attraction among the atoms and molecules of the element. The molecules get separated to higher distances. The energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of the molecules in gaseous form and into the internal energy in terms of the temperature of the gas.
