zanele has a mass of 40kg and is sitting inside a 20kg cart .zanele's friends pull a cart with a force of 500N at an angle of 20

°to the horizontal ,using a light rope .the cart experiences a frictional force of 300N .calculate the net horizontal force acting on the cart calculate the change in the carts momentum if zanele's friends apply the force for 10s calculate the net horizontal force acting on zanele how would the cart's final velocity be affected if angle between the 500N force and the horizontal is decreased ?explain your answer.​

The net horizontal force acting on the cart is 169.85 N.

The change in the carts momentum is 5,000 Ns.

The net horizontal force on Zanele is same as the net horizontal force on the cart.

If angle between the 500N force and the horizontal is decreased, the final velocity of the cart increases.

The given parameters:

  • Mass of zanele, m1 = 40 kg
  • Mass of the cart, m2 = 20 kg
  • Applied force, F = 500 N, at angle 20 degrees
  • Frictional force on the cart, Ff = 300 N
  • Time, t = 10 s

<h3>Net horizontal force on the cart;</h3>
  • The net horizontal force acting on the cart is calculated as follows;

F_{net} = F - F_f\\\\F_{net} = 500 \times cos(20) - 300\\\\F_{net} = 169.85 \ N

<h3>Change in momentum;</h3>
  • The change in the carts momentum at the given time of applied force is calculated as follows;

\Delta mv = Ft  \\\\\Delta mv = 500 \times 10= 5,000 \ Ns

The net horizontal force on Zanele is same as the net horizontal force on the cart.

<h3>The final velocity of the cart;</h3>
  • When the angle decreases the cart's final velocity would be affected  as follows;

F_{net} = F - F_f\\\\F_{net} = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\\frac{mv}{t} =  F - F_f\\\\  \frac{mv}{t} =  Fcos(\theta) - F_f\\\\let \ \theta  = 0^0\\\\\frac{mv}{t} =500 \times cos(0) - 300\\\\\frac{mv}{t} = 200\\\\v = \frac{200 t}{m} \\\\when \ \theta = 20^0\\\\\frac{mv}{t} =500 \times cos(20) - 300\\\\\frac{mv}{t} = 169.85\\\\v = \frac{169.85t}{m}

Thus, if angle between the 500N force and the horizontal is decreased, the final velocity of the cart increases.

<span>So we wonder how can we compare yellow and orange light. Light is a small art of electromagnetic spectrum which is a continuum of all electromagnetic waves arranged by wavelenght and frequency. So on the EM spectrum orange has greaterr wavelangth than yellow but smaller frequency because wavelength and frequency are connected by the equation: c=f*lambda, where lambda is the wavelength and c is the speed of light and f is the frequency. We see that the higher the frequency the smaller the wavelength and vice versa.</span>

myrzilka [38]
Power is the rate of work that is done per time. Work is calculated from the product of force and the displacement. So, by using the definition of power and work, we can relate power with force, displacement and the time. We do as follows:

Power = Work / time
Power = Force x displacement / time
Power = 21 N (9 m) / 3 s
Power = 63 J /s = 63 W

(1 point) Which of the following statements are true?A.The equation Ax=b is referred to as a vector equation.B.If the augmented
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

A. False

B. False

C. True

D. True

E. True

F. True

Explanation:

A. The equation Ax=b is referred to as a matrix equation and not vector equation.

B. If the augmented matrix [ A b ] has a pivot position in every​ row then equation Ax=b may or may not be consistent. It is inconsistent if [A b] has a pivot in the last column b and it is consistent if the matrix A has a pivot in every row.

C. In the product of Ax also called the dot product the first entry is a sum of products. For example the the product of Ax where A has [a11 a12 a13] in the first entry of each column and the corresponding entries in x are [x1 x2 x3] then the first entry in the product is the sum of products i.e.  a11x1 + a12x2 +a13x3

D. If the columns of mxn matrix A span R^m, this states that every possible vector b in R^m is a linear combination of the columns which makes the equation consistent. So the equation Ax=b has at least one solution for each b in R^m.

E. It is stated that a vector equation x1a1 + x2a2 + x3a3 + ... + xnan = b has the same solution set as that of the linear system with augmented matrix [a1 a2 ... an b]. So the solution set of linear system whose augmented matrix is [a1 a2 a3 b] is the same as solution set of Ax=b if A=[a1 a2 a3]  and b can be produced by linear combination of a1 a2 a3 iff the solution of linear system corresponding to [a1 a2 a3 b] takes place.

F.  It is true because lets say b is a vector in R^m which is not in the span of  the columns. b cannot be obtained for some x which belongs to R^m as b = Ax. So Ax=b is inconsistent for some b in R^m and has no solution.
