- Which of the following statements is most correct? (a) It is possible for an object to have motion in the absence of forces on the object. (b) It is possible to have forces on an object in the absence of motion of the object. (c) Neither statement (a) nor statement (b) is correct. (d) Both statements (a) and (b) are correct.arrow_forwardIn Example 4.5, we pushed on two blocks on a table. Suppose three blocks are in contact with one another on a frictionless, horizontal surface as shown in Figure P4.49. A horizontal force F is applied to m1. Take m1 = 2.00 kg, m2 = 3.00 kg, m3 = 4.00 kg, and F = 18.0 N. (a) Draw a separate free-body diagram for each block. (b) Determine the acceleration of the blocks. (c) Find the resultant force on each block. (d) Find the magnitudes of the contact forces between the blocks. (e) You are working on a construction project. A coworker is nailing up plasterboard on one side of a light partition, and you are on the opposite side, providing backing by leaning against the wall with your back pushing on it. Every hammer blow makes your back sting. The supervisor helps you put a heavy block of wood between the wall and your back. Using the situation analyzed in parts (a) through (d) as a model, explain how this change works to make your job more comfortable. Figure P4.49arrow_forwardDoes the ground need to exert a force on you for you to jump off the ground, or do you need to exert a force on the ground? If the ground must exert a force on you, is that force greater than the force you exert on the ground?arrow_forward
- An object experiences no acceleration. Which of the following cannot be true for the object? (a) A single force acts on the object. (b) No forces act on the object. (c) Forces act on the object, but the forces cancel.arrow_forwardTwo blocks of mass 3.50 kg and 8.00 kg are connected by a massless string that passes over a frictionless pulley (Fig. P4.47). The inclines are frictionless. Find (a) the magnitude of the acceleration of each block and (b) the tension in the string. Figure P4.47arrow_forwardWhich of the following statement(s) is/are correct? I. The "action" and "reaction" forces are in the same direction. II. The "action" and "reaction" forces act on different bodies. III. The "action" and "reaction" forces are exerted by the same object. IV. The "action" force is sometimes greater than the reaction force.arrow_forward
- A block with mass of m1=2 kg is placed on top of a block with a mass m2=4kg. A horizontal force F=60N is applied to the block m2 is tied to the wall. The coefficient of kinetic friction between all surfaces is 0.4. Draw a free-body diagram for each block and identify the action-reaction forces between the blocks. Determine the tension in the siring and the magnitude of the acceleration of the block m2.(g=9.8 m/s^2)arrow_forwardAccording to Newton's third law, every force is accompanied by an equal and opposite reaction force. The reason that these forces do not cancel each other is ____. a. the action force acts for a longer time period b. the two forces are not always in the same direction c. one of the two forces is greater than the other d. the two forces act upon different objects; only forces on the same object can balance each other. e. ... nonsense! They do cancel each other. Objects accelerate because of the presence of a third force.arrow_forwardA force F1 of magnitude 6.00 units acts on an object at the origin in a direction u 5 30.0 degrees above the positive x-axis. A second force F2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the object in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant F1 + F2. Show complete step-by-step process and solution.arrow_forward
- A particle of mass m1 accelerates at 5.00 m/s2 when a force F is applied. A second particle of mass m2 experiences an acceleration of only 1.15 m/s2 under the influence of this same force F.
