Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor by the heel if it has an area of 1 50 cm 2 and the woman s mass is 55 0 kg.
Magnitude of force exerted on floor.
In general the greater the mass of the object the greater the force needed to move that object.
A student predicts that a block sliding down a ramp inclined at 45 degrees should have an acceleration of approximately 7 m s2.
Force is the push or pull exerted on an object to make it move or accelerate.
3 calculate the magnitude of the horizontal component of the 150 newton force.
So in this case the normal force is 98 newtons in the j direction.
It is interesting that this force is significantly less than the 150 n force the professor exerted backward on the floor.
Some of it accelerates the professor.
Newton s second law of motion describes how force is related to mass and acceleration and this relationship is used to calculate force.
And in this case that would be the normal force.
D normal force exerted by ladder on the wall.
So it just completely bounces off.
A find an expression for the magnitude of the normal force n exerted by the floor on the ladder n b find an expression for the magnitude of the normal force n w exerted by the wall of the ladder n w mg cot.
Some students want to calculate work done by friction as an object with unknown mass moves along a straight line on a rough horizontal surface.
1 calculate the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the floor on the crate.
So that force would be an equal force but in the opposite direction.
Show all work including the equation and substitution with units 2 determine the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the crate.
A given force can have a significantly different effect depending on the area over which the force is exerted as shown in figure 1.
Not all of that 150 n force is transmitted to the cart.
So that net force in this situation is the force of the floor of the elevator supporting the toddler.
The magnitude of the forces exerted by both objects is the same because the ball and the floor cannot exert forces of different magnitudes on each other.
