Based on Newton's second law of motion, the net force applied to an object is equal to the product of the mass of the object and the acceleration it experiences. That is,
F = ma
If we are to assume that the net force is constant and that the mass is increased, the acceleration should therefore decrease in order to make constant the value at the right-hand side of the equation.
<span>We can assume that the horizontal surface has no friction and the pulley is massless. We can use Newton's second law to set up an equation.
F = Ma
F is the net force
M is the total mass of the system
a is the acceleration
a = F / M
a = (mb)(g) / (ma + mb)
a = (6.0 kg)(9.80 m/s^2) / (6.0 kg + 14.0 kg)
a = 58.8 N / 20 kg
a = 2.94 m/s^2
The magnitude of the acceleration of the system is 2.94 m/s^2</span>
The gravitational potential energy will increase by 423.36 J
<h3>How to determine the potential energy at ground level</h3>
- Mass (m) = 72 kg
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Height (h) = 0 m
- Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) =?
PE = mgh
PE₁ = 72 × 9.8 × 0
PE₁ = 0 J
<h3>How to determine the potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m)</h3>
- Mass (m) = 72 kg
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Height (h) = 0.6 m
- Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) =?
PE = mgh
PE₂ = 72 × 9.8 × 0.6
PE₂= 423.36 J
<h3>How to determine the change in potential energy </h3>
- Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) = 0 J
- Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) = 423.36 J
- Change in potential energy =?
Change in potential energy = PE₂ - PE₁
Change in potential energy = 423.36 - 0
Change in potential energy = 423.36 J
