To solve this problem we will apply the definition of Newton's second law, which says that force is equivalent to body mass by acceleration. In this case the mass of the trailer is 325Kg and its acceleration is 
, so we will proceed to replace and multiply these values to find the net force on this object.
F= 698.75N
Under the reference system in which the direction of travel is the positive direction, the direction of the force will be positive.
Answer:
Work done on an object is equal to
FDcos(angle).
So, naturally, if you lift a book from the floor on top of the table you do work on it since you are applying a force through a distance.
However, I often see the example of carrying a book through a horizontal distance is not work. The reasoning given is this: The force you apply is in the vertical distance, countering gravity and thus not in the direction of motion.
But surely you must be applying a force (and thus work) in the horizontal direction as the book would stop due to air friction if not for your fingers?
Is applying a force through a distance only work if causes an acceleration? That wouldn't make sense in my mind. If you are dragging a sled through snow, you are still doing work on it, since the force is in the direction of motion. This goes even if velocity is constant due to friction.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy. thermal energy (a low form of energy ) is a form of kinetic energy as it is produced as a result of motion of particles either if they vibrate at their position or they move along longer paths. Motion produces friction or resistance which leads to excitation and thus the heat is produced. The higher the motion of the particles, the higher would be the thermal energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two corpses is given by the following equation:
Where F is the force, G is the gravitational constant
(
), M and m are the masses of the corpses and d is the distance between them.
So we have that:
Answer:
x = 0.237
y = 0.0789
Explanation:
Vector with direction 18.4° and magnitude 0.250 has x and y components of:
x = 0.250 cos 18.4°
x = 0.237
y = 0.250 sin 18.4°
y = 0.0789
