AI Thread Summary
To find the acceleration of the 24.0 kg object being pulled at an angle with a 45.0 N force, the net force in the horizontal direction (Fx) is calculated as 41.72 N, and the vertical force (Fy) is 18.86 N. Since friction is negligible, the acceleration can be determined using Newton's second law, F=ma. The total net force acting on the object is the horizontal component, which leads to the calculation of acceleration. The discussion highlights the importance of recognizing the relationship between force and acceleration in solving the problem.

A woman at an airport is pulling her 24.0 kg by a strap at an angle of 22 ° above the horizontal as shown in figure Fig. P5.44. She pulls on the strap with a 45.0 N force, and friction is negligible.
How would you find acceleration in this problem, there doesn't seem to be enough info but I know there is.
I calculated this
Fx = 41.72
Fy = 18.86

Well... how do you relate force and acceleration...
 
lol, duh F=ma
 
thank you, I just needed that little hint
 
anytime :approve:
 
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'
My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
