That just depends on the mass of the object and I think it will accelerate forwards
Energy is the capacity to do some type of work
Answer:
Explanation:
Block A sits on block B and force is applied on block A . Block A will experience two forces 1) force P and 2 ) friction force in opposite direction of motion . Block B will experience one force that is force of friction in the direction of motion .
Let force on block A be P . friction force on it will be equal to kinetic friction, that is μ mg , where μ is coefficient of friction and m is mass of block A
friction force = .4 x 2.5 x 9.8
= 9.8 N
net force on block A = P - 9.8
acceleration = ( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5
force on block B = 9.8
acceleration = force / mass
= 9.8 / 6
for common acceleration
( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5 = 9.8 / 6
( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5 = 1.63333
P = 13.88 N .
Answer:
Before: 0 m/s
After: -4 m/s
Explanation:
Before: Since you and your beau started at rest, your beau initial velocity is 0 m/s.
After: Since we have to conserve momentum,
momentum before push = momentum after push.
The momentum before push = 0 (since you and your beau are at rest)
momentum after push = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ were m₁ = your mass = 60 kg, v₁ = your velocity after push = 3 m/s, m₂ = beau's mass = 45 kg and v₂ = beau's velocity.
So, m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = 0
m₁v₁ = -m₂v₂
v₂ = -m₁v₁/m₂ = -60 kg × 3 m/s ÷ 45 kg = -4 m/s
So beau moves with a velocity of 4 m/s in the opposite direction
