Please explain the following: 1.When you apply a constant force to an object does the object move at a constant velocity or does its velocity increase? Explain why this occurs using your understanding of acceleration/force (gravity). 2. When you increase the applied force, what happens to the acceleration of the object? Explain. 3. As the mass increases, what happens to the amount of force needed to begin moving the object? Explain. 4. Do you need to continue applying force on an object to keep it moving? Explain why.

1. Look at the data: as the net force increased, what happened to the acceleration? Did it increase, decrease or stay constant? Why? 2. Did a change in the net force produce a change in acceleration by the same factor? Do the results agree with Newton’s 2nd Law?? Explain
Q1: Is the force of static friction constant as the incline rises? Explain your answer. Q2: If Mr. Einstein now wears ankle weights while sliding down, would the kinetic frictional force he experiences be the same, less, or greater than he experienced before? Would he accelerate faster? Would the coefficient of kinetic friction change? Please do not copy the answer from other source

You and you friend are sitting on the floor in an empty room a distance, d, apart, and you both have an equal mass. Assume the only force acting on you and your friend is the gravitational force you each exert on each other. No other forces are present. Question #1: a. How long will it take due to gravitational forces before you and your friend meet directly in the middle? Note: You may assume the acceleration remains constant throughout the motion. b. In reality, the acceleration is not constant and is continually changing. Why is this? c. If the acceleration is changing, what effect will this have on the derived time? Will the time increase, decrease, or stay the same? Why? BTW: This is a homework assignment and NOT a graded test. I follow the honor code. When I read over the questions, they seem really vague and I'm having trouble conceptualizing what they're asking. Thanks!
1 Is it possible for a body to move in a constant speed but a variable velocity? 2 When a body has a constant acceleration, does the direction of its velocity change or not? If yes, give one of your examples. 3 If an object is acted on under several forces, does the object have to have acceleration? 4 Does the direction of the net force acted on a body and the direction of motion of the body have to be the same?
1. As part of a physics experiment, you stand on a bathroomscale in an elevator. Though your normal weight is 610 N, thescale at the moment reads 730 N. (a) Is the acceleration of theelevator upward, downward, or zero? Explain. (b) Calculate themagnitude of the elevator’s acceleration. What, if anything,can you say about the velocity of the elevator? Graph Explain.
(Figure 1)A bob of mass mm is suspended from a fixed point with a massless string of length LL (i.e., it is a pendulum). You are to investigate the motion in which the string moves in a cone with half-angle θθ. How long does it take the bob to make one full revolution (one complete trip around the circle)? Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables mm, LL, and θθ, as well as the free-fall acceleration gg.
Once you reach the 21st floor you decide that your urge to understand physics is too great so you decide to ride the elevator back to the ground floor to analyze what happens. The elevator accelerates downward at 2 m/s2. What is the Gravitational Force? Since the elevator is accelerating downward does the Normal Force have to be greater than, equal to or less than the Force of Gravity? Are the forces balanced or unbalanced? Draw a free body diagram of the forces acting on you. Be sure to draw the size of your arrows appropriately. What is the Net Force, using Newton’s 2nd Law, while the elevator is accelerating downward? What is the Normal Force? What does the scale read as the elevator is accelerating downward
CALCULATE the acceleration of the Falcon 9 Rocket if it takes 70 seconds from launch to reach supersonic speed = 343 m/s. b) Calculate the theoretical acceleration of a 549,054 kg Falcon-9 Rocket, during launch when the thrust of its engines has a net force of 7.6 x 10^6 N. (Hint: use Newton's 2nd law and solve for acceleration) c) Neglecting wind resistance, DETERMINE the theoretical time in seconds it would take for the rocket to reach supersonic speed? (Hint, use your kinematic equation (final) = (initial) + a*t, solve for t). d) Briefly discuss reasons for the difference between your theoretical and actual accelerations and times to reach supersonic speed.
2. Next, imagine the rather than sliding down the hill, the skier holds onto a rope that is connected to a tree at the top of the hill, and that the force of the rope holds the skier in place. How would you modify your force diagram now? Hint: The rope is parallel to the surface of the hill. Show that the net force is zero, again by using the parallelogram rule to show that any 2 forces add up to exactly cancel the 3rd force. Note that tension force is always along the direction of the rope but is not drawn equal to the length of the rope. What must be true for an object in equilibrium is that vector sum of the forces in any and every direction must equal zero. Though, we only need to show that along our chosen coordinate axes. Here it is okay to use the "usual" x- and y- directions
A dancer is standing on one leg on a drawbridge that is about to open. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the drawbridge and the dancer's foot are μs and μk, respectively. n⃗ represents the normal force exerted on the dancer by the bridge, and F⃗g represents the gravitational force exerted on the dancer, as shown in the drawing.(Figure 1). For all the questions, we can assume that the bridge is a perfectly flat surface and lacks the curvature characteristic of most bridges. Before the drawbridge starts to open, it is perfectly level with the ground. The dancer is standing still on one leg. What is the horizontal component of the friction force f⃗? (Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables n, μs, and/or μk.) (Figure 2). The drawbridge then starts to rise. The dancer continues to stand on one leg. The drawbridge stops just at the point where the dancer is on the verge of slipping. What is the magnitude f of the frictional force now? (Express…
