horizontal component = Fx = F cos α

vertical component = Fy = F sin α

the horizontal component of the force on the box:

$\tt =20\times cos~38^o\\\\=\boxed{\bold{15.76~N}}$

You are driving at the speed of 27.7 m/s (61.9764 mph) when suddenly the car in front of you (previously traveling at the same s

densk [106]

Here when car in front of us applied brakes then it is slowing down due to frictional force on it

So here we can say that friction force on the car front of our car is given as

$F_f = \mu m g$

So the acceleration of car due to friction is given as

$F_{net} = - \mu mg$

$a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}$

$a = -\mu g$

now it is given that

$\mu = 0.868$

$g = 9.81 m/s^2$

so here we have

$a = -0.868 * 9.81$

$a = -8.52 m/s^2$

so the car will accelerate due to brakes by a = - 8.52 m/s^2

If the distance between the center of two objects is quadrupled. The gravitational

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

F' = F/16

Explanation:

The gravitational force between masses is given by :

$F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

If the distance between the center of two objects is quadrupled, r' = 4r

New force will be :

$F'=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r'^2}\\\\F'=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{(4r)^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{16r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{1}{16}\times \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{F}{16}$

So, the new force will change by a factor of 16.

An object has a kinetic energy of 175 J and a momentum of magnitude 25.0 kg m/s. Find the

DedPeter [7]

Answer:14 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy(ke)=175J

Momentum(M)=25kgm/s

Speed=v

Mass=m

Ke=(m x v x v)/2

175=(mv^2)/2

Cross multiply

175 x 2=mv^2

350=mv^2

Momentum=mass x velocity

25=mv

m=25/v

Substitute m=25/v in 350=mv^2

350=25/v x v^2

350=25v^2/v

v^2/v=v

350=25v

v=350/25

v=14 m/s
