Answer:

a)115 N

b)For father acceleration = 1.69 m/s²

For son acceleration = 3.28 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of man(M)= 68 kg

Mass of son (m)= 34 kg

F= 115 N

As we know that from third law of Newtons ,It sates that every action have it reaction in opposite direction but same in magnitude.

So the force exerted by boy on father = 115 N

From Newtons second law of motion

F= m a

F=Force

m= mass

a=acceleration

For father

115 = 68 x a

a=1.69 m/s²

For son

115  = 35 x a'

a'=3.28  m/s²

Why does the Polaris appear to remain stationary in the night sky when other stars show an apparent pattern?
yanalaym [24]
Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.

If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day.  But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

Delivery trucks that operate by making use of energy stored in a rotating flywheel have been used in Europe. The trucks are char
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

Explanation:

given,

angular speed of the fly wheel = 940 rad/s

mass of the cylinder = 630 Kg

radius = 1.35 m

KE of flywheel = ?

moment of inertia of the cylinder

I = \dfrac{1}{2}mr^2

 =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 630\times 1.35^2

 = 574 kg m²

kinetic energy of the fly wheel

KE = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

KE =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 574\times 940^2

KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

the kinetic energy of the flywheel is equal to KE = 2.535 x 10⁷ Joules

A man attempts to pick up his suitcase of weight ws by pulling straight up on the handle. However, he is unable to lift the suit
kvasek [131]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

Normal force, is always directed upward the surface over which is placed the object, and can adopt any value, as required to meet Newton's 2nd Law.

In this case, as the external force on the suitcase pulls upward, in order  to counteract the influence of gravity, normal force is less than the weight of the suitcase, as follows:

F + Fn = m*g

⇒ Fn = m*g - F

So, the normal force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase (m*g) minus the magnitude of the force of the pull (F) which is the same expressed by the statement b.
