An upward force of magnitude C. Is the upward force in part (b) the reaction force in part (a)? d. The reaction to the force in part (a) is a force of magnitude is exerted on by your hand. exerted on by Its direction is e. The reaction to the force in part (b) is a force of magnitude exerted on by Its direction is f. The forces in parts (a) and (b) are equal and opposite because of Newton's law. g.

A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between his steel spatula and his Teflon frying pan is only 0.200 N. Knowing the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two materials, he quickly calculates the normal force. What is it?
Give a detailed example of the exchange of a particle can result in an attractive force. (For example, consider one child pulling a toy another.)
What force is exerted on the tooth in Figure 4.38 if the tension in the wire is 25.0 N? Note that the force applied to the tooth is smaller than the tension in the wire, but this is necessitated by practical considerations of how force can be applied in the mouth. Explicitly show how you follow steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton's laws of motion. Figure 4.38 Braces are used to apply forces to teeth to realign them. Shown in this figure are the tensions applied by the wire to the protruding tooth. The total force applied to the tooth by the wire, Fapp, points straight toward the back of the mouth.
A 1100-kg car pulls a boat on a trailer. (a) What total force resists the motion of the car, boat, and trailer, if the car exerts a 1900-N force on the road and produces an acceleration of 0.550 m/s2? The mass of the boat plus trailer is 700 kg. (b) What is the force in the hitch between the car and the trailer if 80% of the resisting forces are experienced by the boat and trailer?

Two people pull as hard as they can on horizontal ropes attached to a boat that has a mass of 200 kg. If they pull in the same direction, the boat has an acceleration of 1.52 m/s2 to the right. If they pull in opposite directions, the boat has an acceleration of 0.518 m/s2 to the left. What is the magnitude of the force each person exerts on the boat? Disregard any other horizontal forces on the boat.
