- An object of mass m = 1.00 kg is observed to have an acceleration a with a magnitude of 10.0 m/s2 in a direction 60.0 east of north. Figure P4.29 shows a view of the object from above. The force F2 acting on the object has a magnitude of 5.00 N and is directed north. Determine the magnitude and direction of the one other horizontal force F1 acting on the object.

The 9.00-kg puck has a velocity of 2.00 î m/s at one instant. Eight seconds later, its velocity is (6 î + 16 ĵ) m/s. a) Assuming the rocket engine exerts a constant horizontal force, find the components of the force. b) Find its magnitude.arrow_forwardA waitress shoves a ketchup bottle with mass 0.45 kg to her right along a smooth, level lunch counter. The bottle leaves her hand moving at 2.8 m/s, then slows down as it slides because of a constant horizontal friction force exerted on it by the countertop. It slides for 1.0 m before coming to rest. What is the magnitude of the friction force acting on the bottle?arrow_forwardThe figure below is for a 6 kg box on a horizontal floor.

- Item 17 Starting at t =0 a net external force in the +x-direction is applied to an object that has mass 5.00 kg. A graph of the force as a function of time is a straight line that passes through the %3D origin and has slope 5.00 N/s. Part A If the object is at rest at t = 0 what is the magnitude of the force when the object has reached a speed of 9.00 m/s? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
