Two students, Student X and Student Y, stand on a long skateboard that is at rest on a flat, horizontal surface, as shown. In or

der to get the student-student-skateboard system to accelerate, Student X claims that Student Y should apply a force on Student X while both students stand on the skateboard. Which of the following statements is true regarding the claim made by Student X? a)The claim is correct because Newton’s second law states that an object will accelerate if a net force is applied to the object. b)The claim is correct because Student Y can apply a force that is greater in magnitude than the frictional forces that are exerted on the student-student-skateboard system. c)The claim is incorrect because Student Y cannot apply a force that is greater in magnitude than the frictional forces that are exerted on the student-student-skateboard system. d)The claim is incorrect because both students are internal to the student-student-skateboard system, and internal forces within a system cannot cause the system to accelerate.

What is the gravitational force of attraction between a planet and a 17-kilogram mass that is falling freely toward the surface
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a. 150 N

Explanation:

Gravitational Force: This is the force that act on a body under gravity.

The gravitational force always attract every object on or near the earth's surface. The earth therefore, exerts an attractive force on every object on or near it.

The S.I unit of gravitational force is Newton(N).

Mathematically, gravitational force of attraction is expressed as

(i) F = GmM/r² ........................ Equation 1 ( when it involves two object of different masses on the earth)

(ii) F = mg ............................... Equation 2 ( when it involves one mass and the gravitational field).

Given: m = 17 kg, g = 8.8 m/s²

Substituting into equation 2,

F = 17(8.8)

F = 149.6 N

F ≈ 150 N.

Thus the gravitational force = 150 N

The correct option is a. 150 N

How many slices of bread did each climber have to eat to compensate for the increase of the gravitational potential energy of th
N76 [4]

Answer:

So No of slices to be consumed by each person = n = 65

Explanation:

Energy released by one slice = E1

E1=10^6\ J

h = 8850 m ; m = 79 kg ,η= 10.5%

We know that potential energy given as

u = m g h

u = 79 x 9.81 x 8850

u=6.8\times 10^6\ J

we know from the defination of efficiency that,  η= E(out)/E(in)

Now amount of PE has to be compensated, In our case, E(out) =u

0.105=\dfrac{E(out)}{E(in)}

0.105=\dfrac{6.8\times 10^6}{E(in)}

E(in)=64.76\times 10^6\ J

Let n be the number of bread slices to be consumed.

n = E(in)/E1

n=\dfrac{64.76\times 10^6}{10^6}

n=64.76

So No of slices to be consumed by each person = n = 65

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

m is the mass of object

m=\dfrac{W}{g}

m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}

m = 0.25 kg

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}

k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}

k = 24.09 N/m

or

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Obviously Lengthen...   T = 2\pi \sqrt{L/g}   or   g = 4\pi ^{2} L/g

Explanation:

As we can observe from the equation, time period of a simple pendulum depends upon the length directly. When the gravitational acceleration increases the time period of the pendulum decreases and vice versa. So, by increasing the length, the time period can be adjusted...
