Machines makes work easier by increasing the amount of force that is applied, and changing the direction in which the force is applied !! Hope it helped (p.s. I had this same question)
Answer:
a₁ = 0.63 m/s² (East)
a₂ = -1.18 m/s² (West)
Explanation:
m₁ = 95 Kg
m₂ = 51 Kg
F = 60 N
a₁ = ?
a₂ = ?
To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the man we apply
∑Fx = m*a (⇒)
F = m₁*a₁ ⇒ 60 N = 95 Kg*a₁
⇒ a₁ = (60N / 95Kg) = 0.63 m/s² (⇒) East
To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the woman we apply
∑Fx = m*a (⇒)
F = -m₂*a₂ ⇒ 60 N = -51 Kg*a₂
⇒ a₂ = (60N / 51Kg) = -1.18 m/s² (West)
For every case we apply Newton’s 3
d Law
Answer:
Isn't love a social construct?
Explanation:
Sometimes if you have the word per, you need to multiply. In this problem, they are asking you to find the amount of meters a snail can travel per minute.They are giving you the amount of minutes, so in this case you multiply 15 times 0.30. The answer is 4.5 meters.
