A box is 300 kg & it covers the area of 150 m2 find the pressure exerted by the box in the ground.​

Physics
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

If we assume that the box is a cube with 150 m² surface area

Area of 1 face = 150 m² / 6 = 25 m²

The box will exert a downward force of

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Force = 300 kg * 9.81 m/s² N

Force = 2943 N

The box exerts a pressure ( force / unit area) = 2943 N / 25 m²

Pressure = 117.7 N/m²

Thank you, if you found this helpful please comment.

Need help to get this question right!!
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

16 times as strong

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following assumptions were made:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Next, we shall obtain a relationship between the force and the distance apart. This can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

Cross multiply

Fr² = GM₁M₂

If G, M₁ and M₂ are kept constant, then,

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²

Finally, we determine the new force as follow:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Fr² = F₂ × (¼r)²

Fr² = F₂ × r²/16

Fr² = F₂r² / 16

Cross multiply

16Fr² = F₂r²

Divide both side by r²

F₂ = 16Fr² / r²

F₂ = 16F

From the calculations made above, we can see that the new force is 16 times the original force.

Thus, the new force is 16 times stronger.

Consider a wire of length L = 0.30m that runs north-south on a horizontal surface. There is a current of I = 0.50A flowing north
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 4.6 \times 10^{-6} N

Part b)

F = 8.2 \times 10^{-2} N

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the magnetic force on the current carrying wire is given as

F = i(\vec L \times \vec B)

so we have

F = iLB sin\theta

F = (0.50)(0.30)(0.5 \times 10^{-4}) sin38

so we have

F = 4.6 \times 10^{-6} N

Part b)

Now magnetic field is changed to 0.55 T

so we will have

F = (0.50)(0.30)(0.55) sin90

F = 8.2 \times 10^{-2} N
