- How would I solve this question using the net model?arrow_forward24. A pickup truck with mass 980 kg is initially at rest. The truck accelerates to a speed of 95 km/hr within a distance of 60 meters. What the direction and size of the force that acts on the truck? a. b. If the truck were carrying a load of 200 kg, what new force would be required to achieve the same acceleration?arrow_forwardNewton's Third Law of Motion 8. A horse pulls forward on a carriage with a given force. By Newton's third law, the carriage must be pulling on the horse backward with an equal and opposite force. Given this, what explains why the horse and carriage can move forward? a. The cart's force is only in reaction to the horse's force so it does not define direction of movement. b. The cart is rolling on wheels while the horse's hooves have traction with the ground c.The forward force of the horse is just big enough to overcome the backward force of the cart and start the cart forwardarrow_forward
- A freight train consists of an engine and several identical cars on a straight, level track. Which of the following statements are true? A. If the train is moving at constant speed, the engine must be pulling with a force greater than the train's weight. B. If the train is moving at constant speed, the engine's pull on the first car must exceed that car's backward pull on the engine. C. If the train is moving at constant speed, the engine's pull must be equal to the force of friction. D. If the train is coasting, its inertia makes it slow down and eventually stoparrow_forward4. Billy Bob Joe is trying to save his crates full of bananas that are in danger of falling over a cliff. He pulls on one of the crates with a rope, applying a force P as shown. He is quite strong, so he is able to pull the crates to safety, so that the whole system is accelerating to safety. a. Write the equation of motion for every object in this system. Your final equations should only have P, m₁, M², M³, M4, g, T1, T2, T3, µk, and 0 in them. Box each equation. b. Solve for the acceleration of the crates in terms of only P, M₁, M2, M3, M4, g, μk, and 0. 3 3 3 4 T 2 T 3 m 2 T 1 μ k m 1arrow_forwardA car starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate in a straight line. In the first second the car moves a distance of 2.0 meters. How much additional distance will the car move during the second second of its motion? 2. locomotive is pulling an empty freight car with a constant acceleration on a horizontal surface.
