    Lawn mower force question, and acceleration.

    and i also solved for net force and i got 29 N. so would i now need to put that into a right triangle with a 45 degrees angle and the 29 N would be on the x-axis of that triangle? and id need to solve for the hyp? then do i add it to the 80 N originally to find the total force that is needed to...

    How Fast Can a Spider Lower Itself Without Breaking Its Web?

    ok so no normal force, so how would i draw that as a fbd though? the forces are 1) force of gravity down(mg), and anything else? or would there just be on and then i have to find the acceleration if the total force applied has to be equal to that of the webs strength

    Lawn mower force question, and acceleration.

    hahaha wow I am slow, So i use the F=ma formula which would give me a net force of 6N. so then i have to use fnet= force applied-force of friction, and i would want to solve for the for F(app) using a free body diagram.

    Lawn mower force question, and acceleration.

    so to find the acceleration i would use v1= 0, v2 = 1.5 and Delta displacement is 3.0 m and use a kinematic then how would i find the net force?

    How Fast Can a Spider Lower Itself Without Breaking Its Web?

    so would the force of gravity and the normal force need to equal the total tensile strength of the web? then i can solve for acceleration after.

    Lawn mower force question, and acceleration.

    A person pushes a 16 kg lawn mower at a constant speed with a force of 80 N directed along the handle which is set at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction against the lawn mower is 0.230, what force must the person exert on the lawn mower to accelerate it from...

    How Fast Can a Spider Lower Itself Without Breaking Its Web?

    a 5.00 g spider is lowering itself to the floor. Its web has a tensile strength of 3.00 x 10-2N. What is the minimal accerleration with which the spider can lower itself? So i don't know how to begin, would the tensile strength of the web be equal to the total forces? as it is equal to...

    Where Is the Point of Zero Net Force Between Planet Angeles and Its Moon?

    ooo alright, so basically u need to get the gravity of the planet and the moon equal to each other to find where the net force or gravity is equal to 0, so the shuttle doesn't move.

    Where Is the Point of Zero Net Force Between Planet Angeles and Its Moon?

    Q:Astronomers have found a new planet in our solar system and have decided to call it planet angeles. Planet angelees has only one moon. Planet Angeles mass is 90 times more massive than its moon. The center to center distance between angele's and its moon is 7.90 x 108 m. How far from the...

    Calculating Velocity and Using Vector Diagrams in Curved Motion

    tried to make a traingle, but didnt work, but delta v is noorth and your v1 is west, and u have to solve the hypotenuse which is v2?

    Calculating Velocity and Using Vector Diagrams in Curved Motion

    so if i were to put the v1 and deltav(v2-v1) into a vector triangle it would be like HYP= v2 lDelta v l ________ l v1 then to solve its v2= delta v^2-v1^2 v2=(16.7)^2 -(19)^2 which would give...
