Suppose the force of air resistance is proportional to the speed of the object and in the direction opposite the object's velocity. If you throw an object upward, when is the magnitude of the object's acceleration highest? A. It is highest at the top of its trajectory. B The acceleration of the object is the same throughout the entire trajectory. No answer text provided. It is highest right after the object is released.
A woman stands on a scale in a moving elevator. Her mass is 72.0 kg, and the combined mass of the elevator and scale is an additional 815 kg. Starting from rest, the elevator accelerates upward. During the acceleration, the hoisting cable applies a force of 9390 N. What does the scale read during the acceleration? N

d. Force is a vector quantity and thus has both a magnitude and a direction. A vector can be represented graphically by a line drawn to scale in the direction of the line of action of the force. To distinguish between vector and scalar quantities, various ways are used. Identify and explain threeof these ways.
A car has a mass of 1500 kg. If the driver applies the brakes while on a gravel road, the maximum friction force that the tires can provide without skidding is about 7000 N. Part A If the car is moving at 21 m/s, what is the shortest distance in which the car can stop safely? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Ax= μÅ Value Units ****** ?
Å A student tries to push a 27.7 kg desk across the room. She pushes at a downward angle of 39° (measured from the horizontal) with a force of 240 N. As a result, the desk moves with a constant velocity of 1.22 m/s. How much friction is present? F₁ = How much does the desk weigh? 11 N FN = Fg How much Normal force must be present? N N
Newton's first law states that: Group of answer choices Ia. n the absence of any net force acting on it, a mechanical system is necessarily at rest. b. In the absence of a non-zero net force acting on it, a mechanical system keeps moving in the same direction at the same speed (including the case v=0). c. For any pair A/B of objects interacting with one another, the force of A acting on B is the equal-opposite of the force of B acting on A. d. The rate of change of the velocity of a system is proportional to the net force acting on it.
