The net force acting on the sled is zero. The sled is in a state of dynamic equilibrium.

Explanation:

The two vertical forces, Fg and Fn, cancel each other out, but I choose to "ignore" them in my explenation, although they remain present at all times.

Since the net force acting on the sled is zero, the sled is in some state of equilibrium...

Whether the sled or a stationary equilibrium or in a dynamic equilibrium, depends on the the motion of the object. If the object is moving then it is a dynamic equilibrium and if the object is not moving, then there is a stationary equilibrium.

Look closely at the picture of the sled and the dogs, and try to find out if the sled is standing still or if the sled is moving with a constant speed.

From the movement of snow around the dogs, you can tell, the sled is moving. It clearly is not stationary or left standing still.

So in this case it must be a dynamic equilibrium. The combined pull of all dogs is shown by Ft = 225 N.

Apparently, the friction is displayed as an opposite force shown as Ff = - 225 N. These two horizontal forces cancel each other out.

Strangely enough, this can be compared with a situation like a "tug of war", in which both sides pull with equal force. Although there can be an enormous tension in the cord, nothing moves The same is true here although the sled is moving with a constant speed...

EXTRA

Given is that the sled is moving with a constant speed.

No imagine two situations and try to predict what will happen Here we go...

Situation 1 The friction force remains Ff = - 225 N but the dogs suddenly start to pull harder, say with a force of 275 N.

Now the net Force will be greater then zero. In that case it will be 275 - 225 = 50 N in favour of the dogs, which would result in an exeleration of the sled, and thus an increase of the speed...

Situation 2 The friction force becomes greater Ff = - 300 N, but the dogs pull with the same force of 225 N.

Now the net Force will be less then zero. In that case it will be 225 - 300 = -75 N in favour of the friction Force, which would result in slowing down the sled. Perhaps the sled operator applied the brake on the sled, which caused a deceleration of the sled, and thus the speed decreases.

Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. thinking only about the first part of the question, mass, what might be a hypothesis that would illustrate the relationship between mass and kinetic energy? use the format of "if…then…because…” when writing your hypothesis.

The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by f = 1 2l t ρ where l is the length of the string, t is its tension, and ρ is its linear density.† (a) find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to the following. (i) the length (when t and ρ are constant) (ii) the tension (when l and ρ are constant) (iii) the linear density (when l and t are constant) (b) the pitch of a note (how high or low the note sounds) is determined by the frequency f. (the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.) use the signs of the derivatives in part (a) to determine what happens to the pitch of a note for the following. (i) when the effective length of a string is decreased by placing a finger on the string so a shorter portion of the string vibrates df dl 0 and l is ⇒ f is ⇒ (ii) when the tension is increased by turning a tuning peg df dt 0 and t is ⇒ f is ⇒ (iii) when the linear density is increased by switching to another string df dρ 0 and ρ is ⇒ f is ⇒

Air is contained in a variable-load piston-cylinder device equipped with a paddle wheel. initially, air is at 400 kpa and 17°c. the paddle wheel is now turned by an external electric motor until 75 kj/kg of work has been transferred to air. during this process, heat is transferred to maintain a constant air temperature while allowing the gas volume to triple. calculate the required amount of heat transfer in kj/kg.
