You are lifting a 10 kg block straight up at a constant speed of 10 m/s. How much force are you exerting on the block?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The force exerted is [tex]F = 100 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the block is [tex]m_b = 10 \ kg[/tex]

    The speed is  [tex]v = 10 \ m/s[/tex]

Generally the force exerted to lift the object at constant speed is equivalent to the wight of the ball, this is mathematically represented as

       [tex]F = m * g[/tex]      Here  [tex]g = 10 \ m/s^2[/tex]

=>    [tex]F = 10 * 10[/tex]

=>    [tex]F = 100 \ N[/tex]

The force are you exerting on the block when the block is lifting straight up with constant speed is 98 N and this can be determined by using the given data.

Given :

You are lifting a 10 kg block straight up at a constant speed of 10 m/s.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the force are you exerting on the block:

Step 1 - According to the given data, the block is lifting straight up at a constant speed. So, the acceleration is zero.

Step 2 - So, the only force exerted on the block is the weight of the block.

Step 3 - So, the force are you exerting on the block is given by:

F = mg

F = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 9.8

F = 98 N
