Gennadij [26K]2 years ago

Answer:

  see attachments

Explanation:

The force necessary to maintain equilibrium depends on the directions of the two forces that are separated by 120°. If both are pointing toward or away from the point, the third force will be pointing that same direction. It will be 120° from the other two, and the same magnitude (3 N).

If the one of the two forces is pointing toward, and the other is pointing away, then the third force will have magnitude 3√3 N, and will be 30° from one of the other forces. This is illustrated in the 2nd attachment.

A book is sitting on the dashboard of a car that is stopped at a traffic light as the car starts to move forward the book slides
Zina [86]

Answer:

The book remained in its state of rest before the car started to move forward as no direct force acted on it.

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, a body will continue in its present state of rest, or if it is in motion, will continue to move with uniform speed in a straight line unless aced upon by an external force. This tendency of a body to remain in its state of reset or uniform motion in a straight line is known as inertia and is directly proportional to the mass of the body. The more massive a body, the more inertia it possesses. Thus Newton's first law is also known as the law of inertia.

Considering the case of the book on the dashboard of a stationary car which suddenly starts to move. While the car is stopped at the traffic light, the dashboard where the book sits and the book are both at rest. When the car begins to move forward, the dashboard moves forward with it. However as the book is not a part of the car, no force is directly acting on it, so the book so it stays at rest due to its inertia.

Therefore, as the car is moving forward, the stationary book appears to move backward from the reference point of the car, sliding off the dashboard.

The angular speed of the rotor in a centrifuge increases from 420 to 1420 rad/s in a time of 5.00 s. (a) Obtain the angle throug
9966 [12]

Answer:

a) θ = 2500 radians

b) α = 200 rad/s²

Explanation:

Using equations of motion,

θ = (w - w₀)t/2

θ = angle turned through = ?

w = final angular velocity = 1420 rad/s

w₀ = initial angular velocity = 420

t = time taken = 5s

θ = (1420 - 420) × 5/2 = 2500 rads

Again,

w = w₀ + αt

α = angular accelaration = ?

1420 = 420 + 5α

α = 1000/5 = 200 rad/s²

A particle moves along the x axis so that its velocity at time t is given by v(t)=
vodomira [7]

Answer:

a = 0.7267 ,  acceleration is positive therefore the speed is increasing  

Explanation:

The definition of acceleration is

         a = dv / dt

they give us the function of speed

         v = - (t-1) sin (t² / 2)

         a = - sin (t²/2) -  (t-1) cos (t²/2)  2t / 2

         a = - sin (t²/2) - t (t-1)  cos (t²/2)

the acceleration for t = 4 s

          a = - sin (4²/2) - 4 (4-1) cos (4²/2)

          a = -sin 8 - 12 cos 8

remember that the angles are in radians

          a = 0.7267

the problem does not indicate the units, but to be correct they must be m/s²

We see that the acceleration is positive therefore the speed is increasing
