Force is the influence that is capable of bringing about motion

The correct options are;

1. C. The pull of the engine, friction force

2. A. Weight, push of the tracks against the wheel

3. D. The astronaut weighs the most on Earth and least on the Moon

4. Please see attached drawing for example

5. Please see attached drawing for example

6. The data points will fall along a line this that as the force increases, the acceleration increases

Reason:

1. The horizontal forces are the forces acting along the horizontal x-axis, therefore;

A train engine pulling a boxcar what horizontal forces are;

C. The pull of the engine, friction force

2. The vertical forces are the forces acting an  the direction of the y-axis of a graph

The vertical forces present when a train pulls a boxcar are;

A. Weight, push of the tracks against the wheel

3. The weight of an astronaut, W = mass × Gravity

  • Therefore, the weight increases with increasing acceleration due to gravity

Therefore, the least weight is on the moon, where acceleration due to gravity is 1.6 m/s², and most on Earth where the acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s²

  • The correct option is D. The astronaut weighs the most on Earth and least on the Moon

4. The magnitude of the downward force is the sum of the vertical forces acting downwards

5. The net force is given by the vector sum of the forces

6. According to Newton's second law, Force, F = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

  • Therefore, where the students conduct the experiments rightly, we have that the data points will fall along a line this that as the force increases, the acceleration increases

Calculate the force of gravity on the 0.60- kg mass if it were 1.3×107 m above Earth's surface (that is, if it were three Earth
nignag [31]
The gravitational force between two objects is given by:
F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is their separation

In this problem, the first object has a mass of m_1=0.60 kg, while the second "object" is the Earth, with mass m_2=5.97 \cdot 10^{24}kg. The distance of the object from the Earth's center is r=1.3 \cdot 10^7 m; if we substitute these numbers into the equation, we find the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the mass of 0.60 kg:
F=G \frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}) \frac{(0.60 kg)(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(1.3 \cdot 10^7 m)^2}=  1.41 N

A 200 N trash can is pulled across the sidewalk by a person at constant speed by a force of 75 N. What is the coefficient of fri
Pavel [41]

Answer:

μ = 0.375

Explanation:

F = Applied force on the trash can = 75 N

W = weight of the trash can = 200 N

f = frictional force acting on trash can

Since the trash can moves at constant speed, force equation for the motion of can is given as

F - f = 0

75 - f = 0

f = 75 N

μ = Coefficient of friction

frictional force is given as

f = μ W

75 = μ (200)

μ = 0.375

Elemental analysis of the unknown gas from part a revealed that it is 30.45% n and 69.55% o by mass. What is the molecular formu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

the molecular formula for the gas is NO₂

Explanation:

since it contains

Nitrogen = n → 30.45%

Oxygen = o → 69.55%

and 30.45%+69.55% = 100% , then the gas only contains nitrogen and oxygen

Also we know that the proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  is

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen  = moles of oxygen / moles of nitrogen

since

moles = mass / molecular weight

then for a sample of 100 gr of the unknown gas

mass of oxygen = 69.55%*100 gr = 69.55 gr

mass of Nitrogen = 30.45%*100 gr = 30.45 gr

proportion of oxygen over nitrogen = (mass of oxygen/ molecular weight)/(mass of nitrogen / molecular weight of nitrogen ) =  (69.55 gr/ 16 gr/mol) /( 30.45 gr /14 gr/mol) = 1.998 mol of O/ mol of N≈ 2 mol of O/ mol of N

therefore there are 2 atoms of oxygen per atom of nitrogen

thus the molecular formula for the gas is:

NO₂
