The net force acting on the car is 65 N to the left

The net force acting on an object is simply defined as the resultant force acting on the object.

From the question given, we obtained the following data:

  • Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 250 N
  • Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 315 N
  • Net force (Fₙ) =?

The net force acting on the car can be obtained as follow:

Fₙ = Fₗ – Fᵣ

Fₙ = 315 – 250

<h3>Fₙ = 65 N to the left </h3>

Therefore, the net force acting on the car is 65 N to the left

Since there is no friction, the net force on the car in the x - direction will be 65 Newtons

Given that Dave and Alex push on opposite ends of a car that has a mass of 875 kg.

Dave pushes the car to the right with a force of 250 N, which is positive direction and Alex pushes to the left with a force of 315 N which is negative direction. Since there is no friction, only the horizontal forces will be considered.

To calculate the net force on the car in the x-direction, we will find the difference between the two forces because of their directions are opposite to each other.

Net force = 315 - 250

Net force = 65 Newtons

Therefore, the net force on the car in the x - direction will be 65 Newtons

An archer shoots an arrow 75 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at the same height as the release height of the a
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

16.25^{\circ}

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Horizontal range is given by

R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is 16.25^{\circ}.

Suppose we wrap a string around the surface of a uniform cylinder of radius 38.0 cm that is supported by an axle passing through
liraira [26]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

Explanation:

Given that,

acceleration = 9m/s²

Therefore acceleration of string is 9m/s²

since string is constant in length

cylinder of radius 38.0 cm = 0.38m

Angular acceleration = a / r

Angular acceleration = 9 / 0.38

                                   = 23.68 rad / s²

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

a)   v = 0.9167 m / s,  b)  A = 0.350 m,  c)  v = 0.9167 m / s, d)  A = 0.250 m

Explanation:

a) to find the velocity of the wave let us use the relation

          v = λ f

the wavelength is the length that is needed for a complete wave, in this case x = 5.50 m corresponds to a wavelength

           λ = x

           λ = x

the period is the time for the wave to repeat itself, in this case t = 3.00 s corresponds to half a period

          T / 2 = t

           T = 2t

period and frequency are related

           f = 1 / T

           f = 1 / 2t

we substitute

           v = x / 2t

           v = 5.50 / 2 3

           v = 0.9167 m / s

b) the amplitude is the distance from a maximum to zero

          2A = y

           A = y / 2

           A = 0.700 / 2

           A = 0.350 m

c) The horizontal speed of the traveling wave (waves) is independent of the vertical oscillation of the particles, therefore the speed is the same

      v = 0.9167 m / s

d) the amplitude is

           A = 0.500 / 2

           A = 0.250 m

If y = 0.02 sin (30x – 200t) (SI units), the frequency of the wave is
leva [86]

Answer:

31.831 Hz.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • \rm y = 0.02\sin(30x-200 t).

The vertical displacement of a wave is given in generalized form as

\rm y = A\sin(kx -\omega t).

<em>where</em>,

  • A = amplitude of the displacement of the wave.
  • k = wave number of the wave = \dfrac{2\pi }{\lambda}.
  • \lambda = wavelength of the wave.
  • x = horizontal displacement of the wave.
  • \omega = angular frequency of the wave = \rm 2\pi f.
  • f = frequency of the wave.
  • t = time at which the displacement is calculated.

On comparing the generalized equation with the given equation of the displacement of the wave, we get,

\rm A=0.02.\\k=30.\\\omega =200.\\

therefore,

\rm 2\pi f=200\\\\\Rightarrow f = \dfrac{200}{2\pi}=31.831\ Hz.

It is the required frequency of the wave.
