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

A 25kg object moves from left to right at a speed of 30km/h. What net force is required to keep this object moving in a straight
Rama09 [41]

Explanation:

Note that from Newton's law of motion:

the sum of the positive horizontal forces on an object equals the sum of the negative horizontal forces therefore, the net force on the object is zero.

Also, velocity is constant, acceleration is zero.

F = m × a

= 0 N

Problem 3: A basketball player is running at 4.75 m/s toward the basket when he jumps into the air to dunk the ball. He maintain
LekaFEV [45]

Answer

given,

speed of the basketball player, v_x = 4.75 m/s

height of the jump = ?

a) initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s

   final vertical velocity = ?

       height, h = 0.75 m

 using equation of motion

   v² = u² +  2 g h

   v² = 0² +  2 x 9.8 x  0.75

   v² = 14.7

   v = 3.83 m/s

b) let horizontal distance= x m

 maximum height at time , t s

 time taken to reach maximum height

    t = \dfrac{3.83}{9.8}

         t = 0.39 s

    horizontal distance

             = v_x  × t

             = 4.75 × 0.39

             = 1.85 m

horizontal distance is equal to 1.85 m
