A worker pushes a 7 kg shipping box along a roller track. Assume friction is small enough to be ignored because of the rollers.

The worker's push is 25 N directed down and to the right at an angle of 20°.
(a) Determine the horizontal component of the worker's push.
(b) Write a net force equation for the horizontal forces on the box.

Answer:

a) Fₓ = 23.5 N

b) Net force = Fₓ

Explanation:

An illustration of the query as mentioned is included with this answer.

According to the provided image, the forces on the box include its weight, the normal force from the surface beneath it, the applied force by the worker, and the frictional force acting against the box's motion (which is considered negligible and essentially 0)

a) Based on the diagram, the horizontal force component can be calculated as

Fₓ = 25 cos 20° = 23.49 N = 25 N

b) Referring again to the attached diagram, performing a force analysis on the box in the horizontal direction allows us to conclude

Net force = Fₓ - Frictional force

Since the frictional force is 0 N

Net force = Fₓ

Hope this Helps!!!

THE RELATIVE ANGLE AT THE KNEE CHANGES FROM 0O TO 85O DURING THE KNEE FLEXION PHASE OF A SQUAT EXERCISE. IF 10 COMPLETE SQUATS A
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer: total angular distance = 1700° and 29.7 rad

   the total angular displacement = 0

Explanation:

This is a breakdown of the calculations needed.

The task is to determine both the total angular distance and displacement experienced by the knee.

To calculate the distance traveled by the knee, consider that when squatting, the knee bends 85° to lower, and then another 85° to return to standing (upright). Thus, the cumulative angular movement during the squat totals 170°.

For 10 squats, the knee must undergo 170° motion multiplied by 10, resulting in:

10 * 170° = 1700°

As such, the total angular distance reached is 1700°.

Now converting this to radians since both degree and radian outputs are required:

Since 2π equals 360°, it follows that one degree equates to about 57.3°;

∅ (rad) = ∅ (deg) * 2π/360°

∅ (rad) = 1700° * 2π/360° = 29.7 rad

∅ (rad) = 29.7 rad

For the second part, remember that angular displacement is determined by the angular distance divided by time, leading to a displacement of zero because the knee's ending position is the same as its starting position.

I hope this is helpful!!!!

A beaker containing mercury is placed inside a vacuum chamber in a laboratory. the pressure at the bottom of the beaker is 26000
inna [3103]
The density of mercury in its liquid form is
\rho = 13.5 g/cm^3=13500 kg/m^3

We understand that the equation determining the pressure at the base of a fluid column can be expressed through Stevin's law
p=\rho g h
where
\rho represents the density of the liquid
g signifies the acceleration due to gravity
h indicates the height of the fluid column

Given that the pressure at the lower section of the beaker is p=26000 Pa, we can manipulate the preceding formula to calculate the height of the mercury column
h= \frac{p}{\rho g}= \frac{26000 Pa}{(13500 kg/m^3)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.196m = 19.6 cm
