The acceleration of the object.
(a)
Answer to Problem 19P
The acceleration of the object is
Explanation of Solution
The forces on the object are acting in the two direction so the acceleration of the object will be at some from the horizontal.
Write the expression for the acceleration of the object in horizontal direction as.

- An astronaut named Johnny is driving to their rocket when they suddenly need to break. The car weighs 1900 lbs and is moving at 35 mi/hr when the astronaut slams on the breaks on dry road. Find the amount of time needed for the car to stop. Use k = 0.7. How many forces are present in the a direction? 1 It'll take the car 11.412 x seconds to stop.arrow_forwardMary applies a force of 78 N to push a box with an acceleration of 0.40 m/s2. When she increases the pushing force to 90 N, the box's acceleration changes to 0.66 m/s?. There is a constant friction force present between the floor and the box. (a) What is the mass of the box in kilograms? kg (b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box?arrow_forwardJoe pushes down the length of the handle of a 14.1 kg lawn spreader. The handle makes an angle of 47.1° with the horizontal. Joe wishes to accelerate the spreader from rest to 1.39 m/s in 1.7 s. What force must Joe apply to the handle? Answer in units of N.arrow_forward
- The figure below is for a 6 kg box on a horizontal floor. Initially, you are pushing horizontally on the box and friction is opposing you. Then, you stop pushing the box. Use g = 10 m/s?. v(m/s) 8.0 6.0 4.0 2.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 t(s) Find the normal force acting on the box.arrow_forwardQuestion 5. A 21.3-g bullet is fired from a rifle. It takes 2.40 × 10-³ s for the bullet to travel the length of the barrel, and it exits the barrel with a speed of 730 m/s. Assuming that the acceleration of the bullet is constant, find the average net force exerted on the bullet. Ans: 6479 N IN Question 6. A planet has a mass of 707 is the 2000arrow_forwardE 00 . Two blocks connected by a cord passing over a small, fric- tionless pulley rest on frictionless planes (Fig. P5.90). (a) Which way will the system move when the blocks are released from rest? b) What is the acceleration of the blocks? (c) What is the tension in the cord?

- Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, this gun accelerates a 2.7-kg projectile from rest to a speed of 8.3 x 10³ m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is 4.9 x 105 N. How much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed? i 189.8 Units Sarrow_forwardAfter a day of testing race cars, you decide to take your own 1460.7 kg car onto the test track. While moving down the track at 10.7 m/s, you suddenly accelerate to 33.3 m/s in 12.4 s. What average net force have you applied to the car during that time? Answer in units of N.arrow_forwardMary applies a force of 80 N to push a box with an acceleration of 0.40 m/s². When she increases the pushing force to 86 N, the box's acceleration changes to 0.63 m/s². There is a constant friction force present between the floor and the box. (a) What is the mass of the box in kilograms? 200 X Consider applying Newton's Second Law to each of the pushing forces. kg (b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box? -0.020 X What is the relation between friction force and normal force? Did you apply Newton's Second Law to motion in the vertical direction?arrow_forward

Give your answer in Newtons to the correct number of significant figures.arrow_forwarda. You are a newly graduated astronaut preparing for your first trip into space. Plans call for your spacecraft to reach a velocity of 500. m/s after 2.40 minutes. If you weigh 735 N, what force will be exerted on your body? Assume the acceleration is constant. b. A car is traveling at 25 m/s when the driver spots a large pothole in the road a distance of 30 m ahead. He immediately applies the brakes. If his acceleration is -27 m/s^2, does he manage to stop before reaching the pothole?arrow_forwardA person traveling in a 2,000 kg car at a constant speed of 40.0 m/s applies the brakes, causing a constant 300.0 N force to oppose the car’s motion. What distance is traveled before the car comes to a complete stop?arrow_forward
