Forces exerted by the object do not change
its motion.
An object at rest remains at rest and an
object in motion continues in motion with
constant velocity unless it experiences a net
external force.
F is the vector sum of the external forces
acting on the object.
In most cases, air resistance increases with
increasing speed.
27 N, to the right
Given
F1 = 102 N, to the right
24. 16 N
Given
m = 33 kg
a = 0.50 m/s2
Solution
Fnet, x = Fx = max =
(32 kg)(0.50 m/s2 ) = 16 N
25. 10.4 N
Given
m = 1.10 kg
= 15.0°
g = 9.81 m/s2
Solution
Fnet, y = Fy = Fn Fy = 0
= 180° 90° 15.0° = 75.0°
Fn = Fy = Fg sin = mg sin Fn = (1.10 kg)(9.81 m/s2 )(sin 75.0°)
= 10.4 N
F2 = 75 N, to the left
Solution
Fnet = F1 + F2
Fnet = F1 F2 = 102 N 75 N = 27 N
Fnet = 27 N, to the right
