To get a feeling for inertial forces discuss the familiar cases of accelerating in a car in a straight line while increasing or

decreasing speed and turning the wheel to change direction. What direction do you feel a force in these scenarios and how does the strength of that force change if you either hit gas/brake harder or turn sharper?

Answer:

Explanation:

When we accelerate in a car on a straight path we tend to lean backward because our lower body part which is directly in contact with the seat of the car gets accelerated along with it but the upper the upper body experiences this force  later on due to its own inertia. This force is accordance with Newton's second law of motion and is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the upper body part.

Conversely we lean forward while the speed decreases and the same phenomenon happens in the opposite direction.

While changing direction in car the upper body remains in its position due to inertia but the lower body being firmly in contact with the car gets along in the direction of the car, seems that it makes the upper body lean in the opposite direction of the turn.

On abrupt change in the state of motion the force experienced is also intense in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion.

Inga [223]

Answer:

The cross-sectional area of the larger piston is 392cm ^{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we apply the following formula:

Pascal principle: F=P*A   Formula (1)

F=Force applied to the piston

P: Pressure

A= Piston area

Nomenclature:

Fp= Force on the primary piston= 500N

W= car weight =m*g=2000kg*9.8m/s2= 19600N

Fs= Force on the secondary piston= W = 19600N

Ap= Primary piston area=10cm^{2} =10*10^{-4}m^{2}

As= Secondary piston area=?

The pressure acting on one side is transmitted to all the molecules of the liquid because the liquid is incompressible.

In the equation (1)

P=F/A

Pp=Ps

\frac{Fp}{Ap} = \frac{Fs}{As}

As= \frac{Fs*Ap}{Fp}

As=\frac{19600*10*10^{-4} }{500}

As=0.0392m^{2} =0.0392*10^{4}cm^{2}

As=392cm ^{2}

Two large parallel conducting plates carrying opposite charges of equal magnitude are separated by 2.20 cm. Part A If the surfac
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5308.34 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Surface density of each plate (σ) = 47.0 nC/m² = 47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2

Separation between the plates (d) = 2.20 cm

We know, from Gauss law for a thin sheet of plate that, the electric field at a point near the sheet of surface density 'σ' is given as:

E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

Now, as the plates are oppositely charged, so the electric field in the region between the plates will be in same direction and thus their magnitudes gets added up. Therefore,

E_{between}=E+E=2E=\frac{2\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}

Now, plug in  47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2 for 'σ' and 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m for \epsilon_0 and solve for the electric field. This gives,

E_{between}=\frac{47\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2}{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}\\\\E_{between}= 5308.34\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field between the plates has a magnitude of 5308.34 N/C

At one point in the rescue operation, breakdown vehicle A is exerting a force of 4000 N and breakdown vehicle B is exerting a fo
lukranit [14]

Answer:

1.) Magnitude = 5596 N

2.) Direction = 60 degrees

Explanation: You are given that the breakdown vehicle A is exerting a force of 4000 N at angle 45 degree to the vertical and breakdown vehicle B is exerting a force of 2000 N

Let us resolve the two forces into X and Y component

Sum of the forces in the X - component will be 4000 × cos 45 = 2828.43 N

Sum of the forces in the Y - component will be 2000 + ( 4000 × sin 45 )

= 2000 + 2828.43

= 4828.43 N

The resultant force R will be

R = sqrt ( X^2 + Y^2 )

Substitutes the forces at X component and Y component into the formula

R = sqrt ( 2828.43^2 + 4828.43^2 )

R = sqrt ( 31313752.53 )

R = 5595.87 N

The direction will be

Tan Ø = Y/X

Substitute Y and X into the formula

Tan Ø = 4828.43 / 2828.43

Tan Ø = 1.707106

Ø = tan^-1( 1.707106 )

Ø = 59.64 degree

Therefore, approximately, the magnitude and direction of the resultant force on the truck are 5596 N and 60 degree respectively.
