If you push a chair across the floor at a constant velocity, how does the force of friction compare with the force you exert? ex

If the velocity of the chair is constant, then the net force acting on it is zero.

The force you exert to keep it going is equal and opposite to the force of friction.

An upward force of 32.6 N is applied via a string to lift a ball with a mass of 2.8 kg. (a) What is the gravitational force acti
Igoryamba

Answer:

a) Fg = -27.4 N

b) Fnet = 5.2 N

c) a = 1.9 m/s2

Explanation:

a)

  • There are two forces acting on the ball, one directed upward (assuming this direction as positive, along the y-axis) which is the tension on the string (lifting force), and another aimed downward, which is the attractive force due to gravity.
  • Applying the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation to a mass close to the surface of the Earth (in this case the ball), we can take the acceleration due to gravity like a constant, that we call by convention g, equal to -9.8 m/s2.
  • So, we can write the following expression for Fg:

       F_{g} = m*g = 2.8 kg*(-9.8m/s2) = -27.4 N (1)

b)

  • The net force on the ball, will be just the difference between the lifting force (32.6 N) and the force due to gravity, Fg:

       F_{net} = T -F_{g} = 32.6 N - 27.4 N = 5.2 N  (2)

c)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the acceleration caused by a net force on a point mass (we can take the ball as one) is given by the following expression:

       a = \frac{F_{net} }{m} = \frac{5.2N}{2.8kg} = 1.9 m/s2  (3)

Which quantity best describes this description? Justin walks at 3 miles per hour north, and then speeds up to 4 miles per hour.
prisoha [69]

Personally, I agree with your answer, namely that the likely-intended event happening here is one of acceleration. Having said that, I also want to add: it pains me to see this type of wording because, clearly, it is vague and only invites confusion of the type you are talking about.

Good luck!
