If the vector components of the position of a particle moving in the xy plane as a function of time are x(t)=(2.5ms2)t2i and y(t)=(5.0ms3)t3j, when is the angle between the net force on the particle and the x axis equal to 45?
A 3.00-kg object is moving in a plane, with its x and y coordinates given by x = 5t2 1 and y = 3t3 + 2, where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Find the magnitude of the net force acting on this object at t = 2.00 s.
The helicopter view in Fig. P3.15 shows two people pulling on a stubborn mule. The person on the right pulls with a force F1 of magnitude 120 X and direction of 1 = 60.0. The person on the left pulls with a force F2 of magnitude 80.0 N and direction of 2 = 75.0. Find (a) the single force that is equivalent to the two forces shown and (b) the force that a third person would have to exert on the mule to make the resultant force equal to zero. The forces are measured in units of newtons (symbolized N). Figure P3.15
If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the objects velocity is a linear function of time. The equation v = vi + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = vi kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object.
