СКАЧАТЬ a tabletop, to answer Questions 114–116. Letters on the diagram signify vectors.

       114. Which vector represents the normal force exerted on the box?

       115. Assuming the table completely supports the box’s weight, what equality must be true in terms of A, B, C, and D – the magnitudes of the vectors displayed?

       116. A cat sees the box on the table and hops up to start pushing it to the right. After it starts moving, the cat exerts a force K on the box that keeps it moving at a constant velocity. If K is parallel to the table’s surface, write an expression for the magnitude of K in terms of A, B, C, and D – the magnitudes of the four vectors shown.

Adding Forces Together to Obtain the Net Force

      117–119

       117. One force pulls a brick with a force of 12 newtons due west, while another force pulls the brick with a force of 8 newtons due east. What is the magnitude of the net force exerted on the brick?

       118. What is the net force in the east-west direction on a crate being pushed with 58 newtons of force 12 degrees north of east by one worker and with 30 newtons of force 64 degrees south of east by a second worker? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

       119. Two forces act on a cardboard box: a 340-newton force directed 25 degrees south of east and a 300-newton force directed 85 degrees north of west. What net force does the cardboard box experience? Round your answer to the nearest integers, in units of newtons and degrees.

Moving a Distance with the Net Force

      120–122

       120. A force of 50 newtons provides a constant acceleration to a 25-kilogram crate originally at rest. How many meters does the crate move in 3 seconds? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

       121. Given a box of mass M initially at rest, write an expression for the displacement the box experiences when a force F constantly accelerates it to a speed of v meters per second. Your answer should contain only variables given here, but it does not have to use all of them.

       122. Starting from rest, a 5,850-kilogram sports car goes from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour. It proceeds at that same speed for 10 seconds. The driver then slams on the brakes, producing a constant acceleration until the car is once again stationary. If the engine and brakes provided forces of 40,600 newtons and 31,800 newtons, respectively, what is the sports car’s displacement during the trip? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a kilometer.

Finding the Needed Force to Speed Up

      123–125

       123. Johnny guns the engine on a 180-kilogram vehicle currently rolling backward at 10.8 kilometers per hour. If the engine provides 450 newtons of force (10 percent of which is lost to frictional forces), what is the vehicle’s velocity 4 seconds later? Round your answer to the nearest meter per second.

       124. A 7,200-kilogram car is accelerated from rest at a constant rate by an engine producing 96 kilonewtons of force for 7.5 seconds. How fast is the car traveling – in kilometers per hour – after that time? Round your answer to two significant digits.

       125. An 800-kilogram elevator cab is attached to a cable rising high into a skyscraper. The sides of the cab contain brake pads that provide the force for slowing the cab down when it approaches its destination. Taking the elevator down from the tenth floor to the fifth floor, Floyd obtains a maximum vertical velocity of 5 meters per second downward before the cab starts braking halfway between the sixth and seventh floors. Assume that the tension in the cable when the brakes are off is twice the tension in the cable when the brakes are on. If each floor is 20 meters apart, how many newtons of force do the elevator’s brakes exert? Round your answer to three significant digits.

Pairing Up Equal and Opposite Forces

      126–128

       126. Joe pushes against a brick wall with a force of 12 newtons. If Joe’s mass is 120 kilograms and the brick wall’s mass is 12,000 kilograms, with how much force does the brick wall push against Joe? Give your answer in newtons using two significant digits.

       127. An angry, 120-kilogram astronaut punches a 3,040-kilogram space shuttle with 45 newtons of force. What is the magnitude of the astronaut’s acceleration – in meters per second squared – as a result of his punch? Round your answer to two significant digits.

       128. Four boxes of varying masses are dragged along a frictionless surface by a force of 85 newtons, as shown here:

      Illustration by Thomson Digital

      How many more times powerful is the contact force between the 2- and 4-kilogram boxes than the contact force between the 5- and 1-kilogram boxes? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Overcoming Friction by Pulling Hard

      129–131

       129. Two cartons of milk are dragged across a table. They are identical except for their masses: One has a mass of 1.2 kilograms and the other has a mass of 0.6 kilograms. If the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the more massive carton is denoted z, what is the magnitude of the force of friction on the other carton, in terms of z?
