A 100 kg bag of sand has a weight on 100 N. When dropped its acceleration is what?

Physics
1 answer:
Anettt [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The acceleration of the bag of sand is 1\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a bag of sand is 100 kg

Weight of the bag of sand is 100 N

It is required to find the acceleration of the bag when it is dropped. The weight of an object is given by :

F =ma

When it is dropped, a = g

g=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\g=\dfrac{100}{100}\\\\g=1\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the bag of sand is 1\ m/s^2.

Mamont248 [21]

Solution

distance travelled by Chris

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{c}= [(\frac{21+0}{2})+(\frac{33+21}{2})+(\frac{55+47}{2})+(\frac{63+55}{2})+(\frac{70+63}{2})+(\frac{76+70}{2})+(\frac{82+76}{2})+(\frac{87+82}{2})+(\frac{91+87}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{579.5}{3600}=0.161miles

Kelly,

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{k}=[(\frac{24+0}{2})+(\frac{3+24}{2})+(\frac{55+39}{2})+(\frac{62+55}{2})+(\frac{71+62}{2})+(\frac{79+71}{2})+(\frac{85+79}{2})+(\frac{85+92}{2})+(\frac{99+92}{2})+(\frac{103+99}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{657.5}{3600}

\Delta X=X_{k}-X_{C}=0.021miles

A truck is driving over a scale at a weight station. When the front wheels drive over the scale, the scale reads 5800 N. When th
aev [14]

Answer:

x_2=1.60m

Explanation:

From the Question We are told that

Initial Force F_1=5800N

Final Force F_2=6500N

Distance between the front and rear wheels \triangle x=3.20 m

Since

 \triangle x=3.20 m

Therefore

 x_1+x_2=3.20

 x_1=3.20-x_2

Generally the equation for The center of mass is at x_2 is mathematically

given by

 x_2 =\frac{(F_1x_1+F_2x_2)}{(F_1+F_2)}

 x_2=3.20F_1-\frac{x_2F_1+F_2x_2}{(F_1+F_2)}

 2*F_1*x_2 =3.20F_1

 x_2=1.60m
