Thank you very much Problem: A retarding force reduces the velocity of a 15 kg ball sliding on well-polished tiles from 15 m/s to 11 m/s in 2 seconds. Calculate the force magnitude?
What is Newton's 3rd law of motion? Examples needed. Thanks
Answer the questions below and state if the question is an example of Newton’s first, second or third law of motion. A rocket fired from its launching pad not only picks up speed, but its acceleration increases significantly as firing continues. Why is this so? (hint: 90% of the mass and weight of a newly launched rocket is fuel) Answer: Why do space probes continuously move in outer space? Answer: Suppose you are standing on a skateboard and shoot a paintball gun at your friend. Which direction relative to your friend will you move? Answer:
Use Newton's Second law to write equations of motion for each of the two masses. Make sure you use the coordinate system given in the figure in the introduction. Use notation so that it's clear which object you're examining, for example call a_GaG the acceleration of the glider and a_hah the acceleration of the hanging weight. You can: Use the equation editor (fx button) to type your equations. Type your answers neatly in the box below Do the work by hand, and upload a photo of your work instead.
Which of Newton's three laws of motion is best demonstated in the following scenario? (Please write in complete sentences and explain how that law of motion is demonstrated in this scenario.) Scenario: While riding a roller coaster you go over the top of a hill and lift off your seat.
Explain Newton’s second law of motion?
Why would a 1kg(2.2lb) rock and a 20 kg rock have the same acceleration when dropped? Use Newton’s Second Law in your explanation. Hints: a. The force causing the acceleration is the weight of the rock which equals its mass in kilogram X 9.8 m/s2. b. a=f/m How much more force would you have to apply to a 30 kg block of cement compared to a 10 kg block of cement in order to achieve the same acceleration? Hint: Apply Newton’s Second Law. Give a detailed explanation for both.
Out of the three Newton's laws which is the law of motion? Why? Up
Consider Newton's first law of motion to determine which of the following statements are true? List all that apply. Newton's first law of motion is applicable to both moving and nonmoving objects. If a football is moving upwards and rightwards towards the peak of its trajectory, then there are both rightwards and upwards forces acting upon it. It would take an unbalanced force to keep an object in motion. If an object is at rest, then there are no forces acting upon the object. It would take an unbalanced force to keep an object in motion at a constant velocity. It is the natural tendency of all objects to eventually come to a rest position. A pendulum bob is set into its usual back-and-forth periodic motion. After some time (perhaps 10 minutes), the pendulum bob comes to a rest position. This is best explained by the idea of inertia - all objects eventually resist motion. If a 3-kg rock is thrown at a speed of 2 m/s in a gravity-free environment (presuming one could be found), then…
