A 6.0-kg object undergoes an acceleration of 2.0 m/s2. (a) What is the magnitude of the resultant force acting on it? (b) If this same force is applied to a 4.0-kg object, what acceleration is produced?
Why can we neglect forces such as those holding a body together when we apply Newton’s second law?
When you take off in a jet aircraft, there is a sensation of being pushed back into the seat. Explain why you move backward in the seat—is there really a force backward on you? (The same reasoning explains whiplash injuries, in which the head is apparently thrown backward.)
If a constant, nonzero force is applied to an object, what can you say about the velocity and acceleration of the object?
Why do we not put the net force of y equal to ma (mass x acceleration), since the object is accerlating the overall fnet cannot be equal to 0.
Two boxes are at rest on a smooth, horizontal surface. The boxesare in contact with one another. If box 1 is pushed with a forceof magnitude F = 12.00 N, the contact force between the boxesis 8.50 N; if, instead, box 2 is pushed with the force F, the contactforce is 12.00 N - 8.50 N = 3.50 N. In either case, the boxes movetogether with an acceleration of 1.70 m>s2. What is the mass of(a) box 1 and (b) box 2?
Consider a person standing on a scale in an elevator. If the elevator accelerates upwards with an acceleration of 1.47 m/s2 and the person has a mass of 98.1 kg, what would the scale read? HINT: you need to take into account the acceleration due to gravity, as well as that of the elevator.
