A flea jumps by exerting a force of 1.20105 N straight down on the ground. A breeze blowing on the flea parallel to the ground exerts a force of 0.500106 N on the flea. Find the direction and magnitude of the acceleration of the flea if its mass is 6.00107 kg. Do not neglect the gravitational force.
Calculate the force a 70.0-kg high jumper must exert on the ground to produce an upward acceleration 4.00 times the acceleration due to gravity. Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton's laws of motion.
A dockworker loading crates on a ship finds that a 20.0-kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 75.0-N horizontal force to set it in motion. However, after the crate is in motion, a horizontal force of 60.0 N is required to keep it moving with a constant speed. Find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between crate and floor.
A child jumping off the monkey bars at a playground accelerates toward the ground because of the gravitational force exerted on him by the Earth. From Newtons third law, the force exerted by the Earth on the child is equal in magnitude to the force exerted by the child on the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate? Explain.
A 10-lb rock and a 1-lb rock are dropped simultaneously from the same height. (a) Some say that because the 10-lb rock has 10 times as much force acting on it as the 1-lb rock, it should reach the ground first. Do you agree? (b) Describe the situation if the rocks were dropped by an astronaut on the Moon.
