If I am lifting a box with a force of 100 N and the box has an acceleration of 10 N, what is the mass of the box?

Korolek [52]3 years ago

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 dart hits a dartboard and stops in 0.060 s. The net force on the dart is 14 N during the collision.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

<em>The change of momentum of the dart is 0.84 Nw.s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Impulse and change of momentum</u>

The change in momentum of an object is its mass times the change in its velocity:

\Delta p=m\Delta v=m(v_2-v_1)

The change in the momentum can also be found by considering the force acting on it. If a force F acts for a time Δt, the change of momentum is given by:

\Delta p=F.\Delta t

The dart hits a dashboard with a net force of 14 N during the collision and stops in 0.06 seconds. The change of momentum is:

\Delta p=14*0.06=0.84

The change of momentum of the dart is 0.84 Nw.s

A piece of nickel at 25 °C is dropped into a glass of water at 25 °C. Which statement is correct?
Makovka662 [10]
The answer is C the temp of water in both beakers will decrease since the metal is flowing heat into the water. Therefore we can say the metal losses heat and the water gains the heat lost by the metal minus any heat loss to surroundings! Hope this explanation helps you understand the concept! Please rate if I helped you! Thank you so much!

According to the law of conservation of energy, mechanical energy can be changed to heat energy.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

                     " law of conservation of energy"

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form of energy into another.This mean that a system always has a same account of a energy,unless it is added from the outside.This is particularly confusing in the case of non conversation forces,where energy is converted from ,mechanical energy into thermal energy.but the overall energy does remain the same.The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.

The amount of energy in any system than it is determined by the following equation.

Ut=Ui +W+Q

  • Ut is the total internal energy of a system.
  • Ui is the initial internal energy of a system.
  • W is the work done by or on the system.
  • Q is the heat added to or removed by the system.

It is also possible to determined the change in internal energy of the system using the equation.

ΔU=W+Q

The mechanical energy of a system increases provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.The energy would transform to kinetic energy when the speed is increasing.Te mechanical energy of a system remain constant provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.

The law of conversation of energy which say that in a closed system total energy is conserved that is it constant.

KE1 + PE1=KE2+PE2

Why might an electromagnet be used to pick up old cars in junk yards?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
I think the correct answer would be that because electromagnets are powerful and can be turned off and on anytime. Electromagnet is a magnet in which the magnetic field is made by the electric current that is induced to the system.
