Some problems no clue what to do

[kevinlikesphysics]

ok even if this seem simple to you please help me i failed the test and ihave to do corrections so could someone please help me out

1. A 14 kg bucket of water is raised from a well by a rope. If the upward acceleration of the bucket is 2.2 m/s2, find the force exerted by the rope on the bucket of water.
in Newtons


2. A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 6.5 103 N forward push by the motor, and the other is a 0.9 103 N resistive force due to the water.

(a) What is the acceleration of the 1200 kg boat?
m/s2
(b) If it starts from rest, how far will it move in 9 s? in
m
(c) What will its velocity be at the end of this time interval? in
m/s



3. [SFHS99 4.P.27.] A 2 kg ball is dropped from the roof of a building 230 m high. While the ball is falling to Earth, a horizontal wind exerts a constant force of 12.0 N on it.

(a) How far from the building does the ball hit the ground?
m
(b) How long does it take to hit the ground?
s
(c) What is its speed when it hits the ground?
m/s



4. A loaf of bread weighs 4.1 N on Earth.

Can you at least post the answers that need to be corrected? So people can see what exactly was wrong and where?

 

[Lisa!]

AS you know first you need to find the external forces acting on system and then use :

[tex]\sum \vec{F} = m \vec{a}[/tex]

I'll do #1 for you (other questions are almost like that). Then tell us what you've done for the rest, and then someone will help you.

1. A 14 kg bucket of water is raised from a well by a rope. If the upward acceleration of the bucket is 2.2 m/s2, find the force exerted by the rope on the bucket of water.
in Newtons

We have 2 forces here:
1. The weight of the bucket which is downward: [tex]m \vec{g}[/tex]
2. The force by the rope which should be upward in orderto overcome the weight and gives the bucket an upward acceleation: [tex] \vec {T}[/tex]

Now we have: [tex]T -m g = ma[/tex]
You have m, g, a. So you can find T.

2. A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 6.5 103 N forward push by the motor, and the other is a 0.9 103 N resistive force due to the water.

thanks

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

sorry about that the answers where on a different sheet we had to do them all over from scratch to try and get half credit back i didnt know i had to use t-mg =ma that helped a lot i was using ma =fa-fk i just need that forumla thanks a lot though sorry about that.

 

[Lisa!]

What about the rest? Can you do them now?

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

not all of them I am kinda stuck i don't know how to solve for the problems involving coefficients of friction i don't know how to us the Fk =uK-Fn to find the distance travel and the acceleration for instance number 9 and number 3 i don't know hwo to do either

N

Aren't you supposed to use F = m a = m g ?

5. [SFHS99 4.P.47.] A 4.66 kg briefcase is sitting at rest on a level floor.
(a) What is its acceleration?
m/s2
(b) What is its weight in Newtons?
N

(a) What is the acceleration acting on any object on Earth without which all would be adrift in space?
(b) F = m a = m g

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

i already had those right i can't get 3 or 9 was what i was saying

 

[EnumaElish]

For 3.a, draw a diagram of a ball falling and being pushed by a wind. It will be a triangle. The units of the triangle should either be meters or m/s but not both. You need to calculate the base of the triangle (the distance from the building). I think you'll need to use a trig function to calculate the triangle's base.

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

ok, i got all of them except 8b 3 and 7. i have no clue for 7 and 8b because i need a wieght i figure out how fast it will slow down and i can't find Fk without the normal force 3 I am not sure of but i could figure it out if i take my time

 

[EnumaElish]

I am not a physicist; can you write the definition for coef. of friction?

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

force of kinetic friction = coeficient of kinectic friction *normal force

normal force = ma

 

[Päällikkö]

You do not need to know the weight. I always use the symbols to solve the equation, and only into the final one will I place the values. I recommend this approach.

m will cancel out, just keep the equations rolling.

 

[kevinlikesphysics]

oik thanks ill give it a shot



ok i have no clue how does the m cancel out i don't even know how to use force in the equation i only have an initial velocity and a coeficient of kinetic friction
