two 0.5 kg carts, one red and one green, sit about half a meter apart on a low friction track, you push on the red one with the constant force of 4N for 0.17m and then remove your hand. the cart moves 0.33 m on the track and then strikes the green cart. what is the work done by you on the two cart system?​

The work done by you on the two cart system is 2 N-m

Explanation:

Work done is the product of force and displacement.

W = F * D

Substituting the given values we get -

W =

The work done by you on the two cart system is 2 N-m

the answer would be   dignified - apex

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
