Is horizontal force applied on a body which is less than its weight can move body?
No, a horizontal force that is less than the weight of an object will not be able to move the object. In order to move the object, the horizontal force must be greater than or equal to the weight of the object.
A horizontal force acts a body that is free to move can it produce an acceleration if the force is less then the weight of that body?
Yes it can, and if less force is needed if you eliminate the possibility of friction. You can find many examples of this, but i think this is an excellent opportunity to devise an experiment and practice your scientific methods.
When a body floats in liquid?
When a body floats in a liquid, it displaces an amount of liquid equal to its own weight, leading to an upward buoyant force that counteracts the force of gravity pulling it down. If the buoyant force is greater than the weight of the body, it will float; if it is less, the body will sink. This is governed by Archimedes' principle.
How much force a walking man exerts on the ground A A force greater than his weight B A force equal to his weight C A force less than his weight D A force not related to his weight?
B. A force equal to his weight. When a man is walking horizontally on a level surface, the force he applies to the ground is equal in magnitude to his weight in order to support his body and propel him forward.
What is the apparent weight for a body floating in water equal to?
The apparent weight of a body floating in water is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. This is known as Archimedes' principle. The apparent weight is less than the actual weight of the body due to the buoyant force acting on it.
If a body is immersed in water will the weight of the body increase?
No, the weight of the body will not increase when immersed in water. The weight of an object is determined by the force of gravity acting on it, which remains constant regardless of whether the object is in water or in air. The apparent weight of the body will be less in water due to the buoyant force acting on it.
Why DO we have to apply large force to move a heavy body?
The large body will have a strong force of opposing friction, related to its large weight. The force of friction between two materials is equal to the normal (perpendicular) force between them, times a factor (the so-called coefficient of friction), which depends on the materials, but is typically less than one.
Is more force is usually required to pull an object than to lift it?
Heavier (more massive) objects require more force to move than lighter objects. The formula is F = ma (force is equal to mass times acceleration). The same force applied to a more massive object will provide less acceleration (motion).
Why the weight of a body is less on the Moon than on Earth?
The weight of a body is less on the Moon than on Earth because the Moon has less mass than Earth, causing weaker gravitational pull. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, so lower gravity on the Moon results in less weight for objects.
How would weight change for an object going to a planet with less gravitational force than earth?
Weight decreases as gravity decreases.
Which has less percent of body weight-- a fish or an elephant?
an elephant has less percent of body weight because it distributes the weight more evenly resulting in a smaller amount of body weight <^>
The force required to split a log by using a wedge is less if?
The force required to split a log using a wedge is less if the wedge is sharper and has a steeper angle. Additionally, a larger wedge will require less force compared to a smaller one.
