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.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

64.945 miles per hour

Explanation:

Since the frequency of sound heard is higher than actual frequency, the ambulance is moving towards you!

The frequency of sound waves as heard from a distance for a sound wave coming towards one at v₀ m/s and whose real frequency is f₀ is given by

+f = f₀/[1 - (v₀/v)]

+f = frequency of sound as heard from the distance away = 8.61 KHz

f₀ = real frequency of sound = 7.87 KHz

v₀ = velocity at which the sound source is moving towards the reference point = ?

v = velocity of sound waves = 343 m/s

8.61 = 7.87/(1 - (v₀/v))

1 - (v₀/343) = 0.9141

v₀/343 = 1 - 0.9141 = 0.0859

v₀ = 343 × 0.0859 = 29.48 m/s = 64.945 miles per hour

Elanso [62]

Answer:

The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

Explanation:

Given;

direction of the magnetic field to be due north

Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.

Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.

Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.
