Answer:

a. How much force is required to lift a box of weight 100 N upwards with a constant acceleration of 6.0 m/s2?

b. How much upwards force is required to lower the same box with a downward acceleration of 3.0 m/s2?

a. As the box weighs 100 N, its mass is 100 N / 9.8 ms-2 = 10.2 kg. To have an upward acceleration of 6.0 m/s2, there must be a net upward force of F =ma = 10.2 kg x 6.0 m/s2 = 61.2 N. The total upward force must be equal have a magnitude to overcome the downward force of gravity and to provide for the upward acceleration Ftotal up = 100 N + 61.2 N = 161.2 N.

b. There must be a net downward force F = ma = 10.2 kg x 3.0 m/s2 = 30.6 N upward. There must be an upward force to counteract the downward force of gravity so that the resultant will be 30.6 N. The equation necessary for this is 100 N - upward force = 30.6 N. Solving for the upward force gives 69.4 N.

A disk is uniformly accelerated from rest with angular acceleration α. The magnitude of the linear acceleration of a point on th

solniwko [45]

Answer:

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

Explanation:

As we know that the acceleration of a point on the rim of the disc is in two directions

1) tangential acceleration which is given as

$a_t = R\alpha$

2) Centripetal acceleration

$a_c = \omega^2 R$

here we know that

$\omega = \alpha t$

$a_c = (\alpha t)^2 R$

now we know that net linear acceleration is given as

$a = \sqrt{a_c^2 + a_t^2}$

so we have

$a = \sqrt{R^2\alpha^2 + R^2(\alpha t)^4}$

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

A satellite in orbit is not truly traveling through a vacuum.It is moving through very, very thin air. Does the resulting airfri

defon

PART A) Yes, the fact that there is a frictional force acting on the satellite generates a loss of energy due to friction. What causes satellite to diminish its orbit during its tour. In fact, many satellites have rectifier systems that allow them to position themselves and remain in their orbit for a long time to avoid being trapped by the Earth's gravity Force and fall into the atmosphere where they would probably be torn apart.

PART B) As a similarity, one could start by mentioning the structure of the two equations are similar and have their own constants who were responsible for supporting them. While the law of gravity speaks of the masses of the bodies the electrostatic law speaks of the charges of the bodies. For both the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

However, the most notable difference between them is basically their statement. While one of the equations speaks about greavedad the other reflects the electromagnetic phenomena. It should be noted that the force of gravity is much weaker than the electromagnetic force and that the latter has the capacity of attraction and repulsion. While the gravitational force only that of attraction.
