3. Consider a locomotive and the rest of a freight train to be a single object. Suppose the locomotive is pulling the train up a hill. Describe the action and reaction forces that cause the locomotive to move up the hill, such as the reaction force and gravity.
4. Is the force of the earth’s gravity on the sun stronger, weaker, or the same as the force of the sun’s gravity on the earth? Explain why the sun’s attraction affects the motion of the earth more than the earth’s attraction affects the sun’s motion. Employ Newton’s second and third laws in your answer.
If anyone could help me at all, with either question it would be greatly appreciated, Physics is my hardest subject, and I struggle with it.
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.
A 8,000 kg amazon truck carrying a 3000 kg package is moving at 20 m/s along a level road as shown to the left. The driver applies the brakes to slow down. The truck travels 50 meters while applying the brakes for 3.0 seconds. The package does not slide on the back of the truck. a) Calculate the rate of acceleration b) Calculate the minimum coefficient of friction between packages and the truck
Answer:
(a) -6.67 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
(b) 0.68
Explanation:
Given that the mass of the truck, [tex]m_1=8000[/tex] kg.
Mass of the package, [tex]m_2=3000[/tex] kg.
As the package does not slide, so the acceleration of both, truck as well as the package, is the same.
Let [tex]a\;\; m/s^2[/tex] is the acceleration of the combined mass, m.
[tex]m=m_1+m_2= 8000+3000=11000[/tex] kg.
The initial velocity of the combined mass, u= 20 m/s.
Time required to stop, t=3 seconds.
Final velocity, v=0.
Displacement traveled, s=50 m.
(a) As [tex]a=\frac {v-u}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow a=\frac{0-20}{3}=-\frac{20}{3} =6.67 m/s^2[/tex]
Hence the acceleration of the truck is [tex]-6.67 m/s^2.[/tex]
(b) Now, [tex]a=-6.67 m/s^2[/tex] is the acceleration of the package, this acceleration is due the frictional force, f.
Due to inertia, on application of break, the package have tendency to slide to left (in the direction of velocity). But the package does not slides, this is only due to the frictional force, f, which acts in the right direction ( opposite to the direction of velocity).
So, the magnitude of frictional force required on [tex]m_2[/tex] to avoid slide is
[tex]f=|m_2a|=\frac{20}{3}m_2\times(i)[/tex]
Now, let \mu be the minimum coefficient of the friction, so
The force due to friction, [tex]f_r= \mu N[/tex],
where [tex]\mu N[/tex] is the normal reaction.
[tex]N=m_2g[/tex], where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
So, [tex]f_r=\mu m_2g\cdots(ii)[/tex]
To avoid slide, [tex]f_r\geq f[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \mu m_2g\geq\frac{20}{3}m_2[/tex] [from (i)and (ii)]
[tex]\Rightarrow \mu\geq \frac{20}{3\times 9.81}[/tex] [tex][ as \;g=9.81 m/s^2][/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow \mu \geq 0.68[/tex]
Hence, the minimum value of coefficient of friction between packages and the truck os 0.68.
What is the value of the initial horizontal velocity?
Answer:
9.8 m/s/s
Explanation:
The horizontal velocity of a projectile is constant (a never changing in value), There is a vertical acceleration caused by gravity; its valueis 9.8 m/s/s, down, The vertical velocity of a projectile changes by 9.8 m/s each second, Thehorizontal motion of a projectile is independent of its vertical motion.
Answer:
the horizontal component of the velocity, however, retains its initial value v0x=+115 m/s throughout the entire descent.
Explanation:
since the plane also travels at a constant horizontal velocity of +115 m/s, it remains directly above the falling package.

During a race, a sprinter increases from 5.0 m/s to 7.5 m/s over a period of 1.25s. What is the sprinter’s average acceleration during this period?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2 \ m/s^2}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Acceleration can be found by dividing the change in velocity by the time.
[tex]a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}[/tex]
The time is 1.25 seconds. The change in velocity is the difference between the initial velocity and the final velocity.
[tex]\Delta v=v_f-v_i[/tex] The final velocity is 7.5 m/s and the initial velocity is 5.0 m/s[tex]\Delta v =7.5 \ m/s-5.0 \ m/s=2.5 \ m/s[/tex][tex]\Delta v= 2.5 \ m/s\\t=1.25 \ s[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]a=\frac{2.5 \ m/s}{1.25 \ s}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]a=2 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The sprinter's average acceleration is 2 meters per second squared.
Answer: 2 m/s^2

A skater of mass 60 kg has an initial velocity of 12 m/s. He slides on ice where the frictional force is 36 N. How far will the skater slide before he stops?
Answer:
d = 120 [m]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. Where the energy in the final state (when the skater stops) is equal to the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work done on the skater in the initial state.
The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy. As the track is horizontal there is no unevenness, in this way, there is no potential energy.
E₁ + W₁₋₂ = E₂
where:
E₁ = mechanical energy in the initial state [J] (units of Joules)
W₁₋₂ = work done between the states 1 and 2 [J]
E₂ = mechanical energy in the final state = 0
E₁ = Ek = kinetic energy [J]
E₁ = 0.5*m*v²
where:
m = mass = 60 [kg]
v = initial velocity = 12 [m/s]
Now, the work done is given by the product of the friction force by the distance. In this case, the work is negative because the friction force is acting in opposite direction to the movement of the skater.
W₁₋₂ = -f*d
where:
f = friction force = 36 [N]
d = distance [m]
Now we have:
0.5*m*v² - (f*d) = 0
0.5*60*(12)² - (36*d) = 0
4320 = 36*d
d = 120 [m]

A battery and a resistor are wired into a circuit. The resistor dissipates 0.30 W. Now two batteries, each identical to the original one, are connected in series with the resistor. What power does it dissipate?
Answer:
1.2 W
Explanation:
Let the value of resistance be R , emf of battery be E
current i = E / R
power = i² R
= E² x R / R²
= E² / R
Given
E² / R = .30
when two batteries are connected
Total emf = 2E
current = 2E / R
Power = ( 2E / R )² x R
= 4 E² / R
= 4 x .30
= 1.2 W .

A student tries to measure the period of a pendulum that is already swinging
left and right. At the moment when the pendulum is fully to the left, she
counts 'One' and starts a stopwatch. She counts successive swings each time
that the pendulum returns to the left. When she counts ‘Ten' she stops the
stopwatch, and sees that it reads 12.0 s.
a. What was her mistake?
______________________________________________________________
b. What is the period of swing of this pendulum?
______________________________________________________________
c. In this particular experiment, explain the likely effect of her reaction time
on her answer.
Answer:
a. The student's mistake was that the student did not swing the pendulum and start the watch at the same time.
b. 1.2 s per swing.
c. The likely effect of her reaction time is that they will should subtract two seconds off the time.
Explanation:
The pupil made the error of not simultaneously starting the watch and swinging the pendulum.
What is pendulum?Pendulum is defined as a body that is suspended from a fixed point and moves back and forth while being pulled by gravity. The pendulum is used to gauge the gravitational pull because the force of gravity causes it to swing back toward its average position. A pendulum's time period can be used to tell the time because it is constant.
The swing of the pendulum is 1.2 sec. per swing. They should take two seconds off the timing due to her presumably slow reaction time. A pendulum's total time should be divided by the quantity of oscillations in order to determine its time period. When compared to a pendulum with a shorter string, the one back and forth cycle of a longer-stringed pendulum requires more time to complete.
Thus, the pupil made the error of not simultaneously starting the watch and swinging the pendulum.

Se lanza una pelota y regresa al punto de partida 2.5 s después ¿Que altura máxima alcanzara? ¿a que altura se hallaba 1 segundo después del lanzamiento?
Answer:
a) [tex] y_{max} = 7.7 m [/tex]
b) y = 7.4 m
Explanation:
a) La altura máxima que alcanza la pelota se puede encontrar usando la siguiente ecuación:
[tex] y_{max} = y_{0} + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} [/tex] (1)
En donde:
[tex]y_{0}[/tex]: es la altura inicial = 0
[tex]v_{0y}[/tex]: es la velocidad inicial en y
g: es la gravedad = 9.81 m/s²
t: es el tiempo
Primero debemos encontrar la velocidad inicial en y:
[tex] v_{fy} = v_{0y} - gt [/tex]
Sabiendo que la velocidad final en y es igual a cero (en la altura máxima), y con t = 1.25 s (la mitad del tiempo total) tenemos:
[tex] v_{0y} = gt = 9.81 m/s^{2}*1.25 s = 12.3 m/s [/tex]
Ahora, podemos encontrar la altura máxima:
[tex] y_{max} = v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = 12.3 m/s*1.25 s - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}*(1.25 s)^{2} = 7.7 m [/tex]
b) Podemos encontrar la altura cuando t = 1 s con la misma ecuación (1):
[tex]y_{max} = y_{0} + v_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = 12.3 m/s*1 s - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}*(1 s)^{2} = 7.4 m[/tex]
Por lo tanto, la pelota se encontraba a 7.4 m luego de 1 segundo despúes del lanzamiento.

A block of cheese Bhangs from the ceiling by rope 1 A wheel of cheese Whangs from the block of
cheese by rope 2
What is the correct free body diagram for the block of cheese B?
URGENT
Answer:
Explanation:
KHAN ACADEMY
The correct free body diagram is option (B). There will only be two forces acting on cheese B.
Given that Cheese B hangs on rope 1. The weight of the cheese is balanced by the tension force on the rope. That is, the cheese experiences a force in the upward direction due to the tension on rope 1.Similarly, a wheel of cheese W hangs from block B by a rope 2. This rope has a tensional force that is balanced by the weight of the cheese W. This causes a downward pull on block B due to the tension on rope 2.By representing the tensional forces by the ropes 1 and 2 as [tex]F_{T1}[/tex] and [tex]F_{T2}[/tex] respectively, the correct free body diagram will be option B.

Answer:
Rt = 908.25 [ohm]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must remember that the resistors connected in series are added up arithmetically.
In this case, R2 and R3 are in series therefore.
R₂₃ = 200 + 470
R₂₃ = 670 [ohm]
Now this new resistor (R₂₃) is connected in parallel with the resistor R4. therefore we must use the following arithmetic expression, to add resistances in parallel.
[tex]\frac{1}{R_{4-23} }= \frac{1}{R_{4}}+\frac{1}{R_{23} } \\\frac{1}{R_{4-23} }=\frac{1}{1800}+\frac{1}{670} \\R_{4-23}=488.25[ohm][/tex]
In this way R₁, R₅ and R₄₋₂₃ are connected in series.
Rt = R₁ + R₅ + R₄₋₂₃
Rt = 150 + 270 + 488.25
Rt = 908.25 [ohm]
