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,

and Alex pushes to the
left with a force of 315 N. Assume there is no friction.

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

three different-mass projectiles are launched at different angles of elevation from the top of a building. each particle has the
MrRa [10]

The correct option is b. The one with the lowest mass.

An object's kinetic energy is determined by

k=1/2mv^2

where

m is the object's mass.

v is the object's speed.

The three missiles in this puzzle have varying masses but the same beginning kinetic energy.

The three projectiles will all have the same kinetic energy when they hit the ground because mechanical energy is conserved, assuming there is no air resistance (because the potential energy that they have lost is the same, since they have been launched from the same height, and they reach the same final altitude, the ground).

hence,

K1=k2=k3

In the combo circuit diagrammed, R1 = 19.2 Ω, R2 = 20.7 Ω, and R3 = 25.8 Ω. Find the equivalent resistance of the circuit.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Equivalent resistance: 13.589 Ω

Explanation:

R series = R1 + R2 + R3 ...

\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = \frac{1}{R1} +\frac{1}{R2} +\frac{1}{R3} ...

Find the equivalent resistance of the right branch of the circuit:

R_{eq}  = R_{2} +R_{3} \\R_{eq} = 20.7 + 25.8 = 46.5 ohms

\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = \frac{1}{19.2} +\frac{1}{46.5}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{eq} } = 0.0735887097\\\\R_{eq} = 13.5890411
