Answer:

Explanation:

3. Newton’s third law explains how every action has an equal but opposite reaction, meaning that forces comes in pairs. While the locomotive’s wheels are pushing back against the ground as the action force, the ground is producing a reaction force towards the locomotive, propelling it forward. Another pair of forces that act on the locomotive is gravity and normal force. While gravity is pulling the locomotive towards the ground, the normal force the ground exerts on the locomotive is why the locomotive doesn’t fall through the ground.

4. The force of Earth’s gravity on the Sun is weaker than the force of the Sun’s gravity on Earth. The Sun’s attraction affects the motion of Earth more than the Earth’s attraction affects the Sun’s motion because according to Newton’s second law, force has mass as one of its factors. The Sun has a significantly higher mass than Earth, meaning that its force of gravity would also be significantly higher. Newton’s third law is why the Earth doesn’t get marginally closer to the Sun, stating that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. As the Sun is pulling Earth towards itself, Earth is pulling away from the Sun.

W = 506.75 N

Explanation:

Rider is towed at a constant speed means there no net force acting on the rider.

hence taking all the horizontal force and vertical force in consideration.

net horizontal force:

F cos 30° - T cos 19° = 0

F cos 30° = 2300 × cos 19°

F = 2511.12 N

net vertical force:

F sin 30° - T sin 19°- W = 0

W = F sin 30° - T sin 19°

W = 2511.12 sin 30° - 2300 sin 19°

W = 506.75 N

A 5.0-kg crate is resting on a horizontal plank. The coefficient of static friction is 0.50 and the coefficient of kinetic frict

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

The mass of the crate is 5kg.

We know that the force of friction can be obtained by:

F = N*k

where k is the coefficient of friction, where we use the static one if the object is at rest, and the kinetic one if the object os moving. N is the normal force

If we tilt the base making an angle of 30° with the horizontal, now the normal force against the plank will be equal to the fraction of the weight in the direction normal to the surface of the plank.

Knowing that the angle is 30°, then the fraction of the weight that pushes against the normal is Cos(30°)*W = cos(30°)*5kg*9.8m/s^2 = 42.4N

The fraction of the force in the parallel direction to the plank (the force that would accelerate the crate downwards) is:

F = sin(30°)*5k*9,8m/s = 24.5N

now, the statical friction force is:

Fs = 42.4N*0.5 = 21.2N

The statical force is less than the 24.5N, so the crate will move downwards, then the force that acts on the crate is the kinetic force of friction:

Fk = 42.4N*0.4 = 16.96N

Then, the total force that acts on the crate is:

total force = F - Fk = 24.5N - 16.69N = 7.54N and the direction of this force points downside along the parallel direction of the plank.
