  • What is the net force acting on a car travelling downhill with a constant velocity?

    Remember, when an object is moving at constant velocity, it has NO acceleration. a = 0 Fnet = ma If a = 0, Fnet (the net force) is also equal to 0.

  • A number of simple Q & A's involving acceleration & force

    Constant velocity means that there is no acceleration, ie a = 0 Again use Newtons law to work out the net force Newtons law F(R) = m*a Mass of automobile m = 100 kg Thus net force F(R) = 100 x 0 = 0 N ie no net force on car.

  • Force between a point charge and conducting sphere

    Take the charge to be a distance D from the center of the sphere. What value of V_0 makes the force equal 0? Please see the attached file.

  • Force and Newton's 2nd law

    on the parachute is equal to the weight of the parachuter since the parachuter is moving with constant velocity i.e. there is no net force therefore weight - ascendant force of the air= 0 or weight= ascendant force of the air Answer:ascendant

  • how far does the box slide before it stops

    B) What is the coefficient of friction when it stops? C) How far would it slide if the coefficient of friction remained at .100? a) The net work done is equal to the change of the kinetic energy.

  • Contribution to Science

    He made three tenants: 1) Any force applied to an object will always have an equal and opposite force applied to the effector 2) Force is mathematically equal to the mass of the object in question and it's acceleration 3) When the net force, or total

  • Gravity Work required to move a mass radially outward from the c.m. of a planet

    To bring the mass to the surface at constant speed, the force at any level must just equal the force of gravity so that the speed remains constant (there must be zero acceleration so net force = 0). But the force must increase as g increases.

  • Acceleration, mass, force, constant speed, velocity, magnitude

    A) equal to its initial vertical velocity B) equal to its initial horizontal velocity C) equal to the magnitude of its initial velocity D) 0 A bullet is fired from ground level with a speed of 150 ms at an angle of 30.0 degrees above the horizontal

  • Car acceleration and net force
