Newton’s second law establishes the relationship between mass, net applied force, and acceleration given by f=ma. consider a 4 kg box of holiday candy on a horizontal surface such as a table. there is a 10n applied force to the right and a 2n force to the left. the box accelerates with a magnitude of

Arotating space station is said to create “artificial gravity”—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. the outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. if the space station is 200 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an “artificial gravity” of 9.80 m/s^{2} 2 at the rim?

Two polarizers are oriented at 24.0∘ to one another. light polarized at a 12.0-degree angle to each polarizer passes through both. what is the transmitted intensity (%)?

Alarge box of mass m is pulled across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal rope with tension t. a small box of mass m sits on top of the large box. the coefficients of static and
