What is the definition of balanced forces? i need help i cnt find the definition on dictionary.com

Any group of 2 or more forces is balanced if the sum of all of their strengths and directions adds up to zero. Here's an example that I just made up:. Take 50 ropes. Tie one end of every rope all together into one big fat knot, and then have a tug of war in 50 different directions. Get 10 football players and 40 cheerleaders to each take the end of one rope, then everybody spread out and start pulling. It's possible that if everybody stood in just the right place, they might all cancel each other out, and the big knot in the center might just hang there and not move at all ... just as if there was NO FORCE on it at all. If that happened, we would know that the group of 50 forces acting on the knot is "balanced".

Which of the following statements explains how total time spent in the air is affected as a projectile's angle of launch is incr
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Therefore letter <u>C is the correct answer.</u>

Explanation:

In a projectile motion the total time in the air can be calculated using the following equation:

We analyze the y-component motion.

v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt

When the final velocity (v(f)) is equal to zero we calculate the upward time and multiplying it by 2 we find the total time in the air. So we will have:

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{iy}}{g}

t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{i}sin(\theta)}{g}

We can see that the <u>total time is directly proportional to the angle</u>, then when <u>θ increase t increase.</u>

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

I hope it helps you!

0. A 3.00-kg block is dropped from rest on a vertical spring whose spring constant is 750 N/m. The block hits the spring, compre
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

the spring compressed is 0.1878 m

Explanation:

Given data

mass = 3 kg

spring constant k = 750 N/m

vertical distance h = 0.45

to find out

How far is the spring compressed

solution

we will apply here law of mass of conservation

i.e

gravitational potential energy loss = gain of eastic potential energy of spring

so we say m×g×h = 1/2× k × e²

so e² = 2×m×g×h / k

so

we put all value here

e² = 2×m×g×h / k

e² = 2×3×9.81×0.45 / 750

e²  = 0.0353

e = 0.1878 m

so the spring compressed is 0.1878 m

This is Yolanda's desk. What could Yolanda do to increase the amount of force needed to change the motion of the desk?
Stella [2.4K]

Yolanda might put more items to the desk to make it heavier, requiring more force.

We need to learn more about the force acting on an object in order to locate the solution.

<h3>How can the force that is required to modify the motion be increased?</h3>
  • We are aware that the word for force is,

                            F=ma

where m denotes the object's mass and an its acceleration

  • There are two ways to increase the force required to alter the motion of the table.
  • One is to increase the mass, and the other is to accelerate it more quickly.
  • Otherwise, there will be a lot of friction between the surfaces, making it difficult to move without exerting a lot of force.

We can infer from this that Yolanda could add items to the desk to increase its mass, necessitating the use of additional force.

A baseball is launched horizontally from a height of 1.8 m. The baseball travels 0.5 m before hitting the ground. How fast is th
zysi [14]

Answer:

0.83 m/s

Explanation:

FIrst of all, we have to find the time of flight, i.e. the time the baseball needs to reach the ground. This can be done by using the equation for the vertical motion:

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h is the initial height

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Substituting h = 1.8 m and solving for t,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.8)}{9.8}}=0.61 s

We know that the horizontal distance travelled by the ball is

d = 0.5 m

Therefore, we can find the horizontal velocity (which is constant during the whole motion):

v= \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.5}{0.60}=0.83 m/s
