A 2500-kg car is being pushed up a hill at an angle of 35 degrees. Determine the gravitational force pulling down on the car if it is accelerating up the hill at a rate of 5 m/s/s.

The force that pulls the car down is Wₓ = 14052.6 N and the one that pushes the car up is F = 26552.6 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, let's set a reference system where the x axis is parallel to the plane, in the adjoint we can see the forces in the system.

           sin  35 = Wₓ / W

            cos 35 = W_y / W

            Wₓ = W sin 35

            W_y = W cos 35

            Wₓ = 2500 9.8 sin 35

             Wₓ = 14052.6 N

let's write the equations for each axis

and

Y axis  

       N-W_y = 0

       N = W_y

X axis  

       F -Wₓ = m a

       F = Wₓ + m a = mg sin 35 + m a

       F = m (a + g sin 35)

let's calculate

       F = 2500 (5 + 9.8 sin 35)

       F = 26552.6 N

The force that pulls the car down is Wₓ = 14052.6 N and the one that pushes the car up is F = 26552.6 N

the only real purpose of sputnik 1 was to beat the us into space. we were getting close to launching a useful satellite, explorer 1 - which launched on january 31, 1958. the ussr had to beat that, so they launched sputnik 1 on october 4, 19

d. platinum would have the greatest temperature increase because it has the lowest specific heat.
