A 5.0 kg block hangs from the ceiling by a mass-less rope. A Second block with a mass of 10.0 kg is attached to the first block

and hands below it on another piece of mass-less rope. What is the tension in the first rope? And what is the tension in the second rope?

The first rope's tension supports both masses:

<em>T</em> - (5.0 kg + 10.0 kg) <em>g</em> = 0   ===>   <em>T</em> = 147 N

The second rope's tension supports the second mass:

<em>T</em> - (10.0 kg) <em>g</em> = 0   ===>   <em>T</em> = 98 N

The tension in the first and second rope are; 147 Newton and 98 Newton respectively.

Given the data in the question

  • Mass of first block; m_1 = 5.0kg
  • Mass of second block, m_2 =10kg
  • Tension on first rope; T_1 =\ ?
  • Tension on second rope; T_2 =\ ?

To find the Tension in each of the ropes, we make use of the equation from Newton's Second Laws of Motion:

F = m\ *\ a

Where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration ( In this case the block is under gravity. Hence ''a" becomes acceleration due to gravity  g = 9.8m/s^2 )

For the First Rope

Total mass hanging on it; m_T = m_1 + m_2 = 5.0kg + 10.0kg = 15.0kg

So Tension of the rope;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 15.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 147 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 147N

Therefore, the tension in the first rope is 147 Newton

For the Second Rope

Since only the block of mass 10kg is hang from the second, the tension in the second rope will be;

F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 10.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 98 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 98N

Therefore, the tension in the second rope is 98 Newton

Three arrows are shot horizontally. They have left the bow and are traveling parallel to the ground. Air resistance is negligibl
timurjin [86]

Answer:

F₁ = F₂ = F₃ = 0 N

Explanation:

given,

Arrow 1 mass = 80 g   speed = 10 m/s

Arrow 2 mass = 80 g   speed = 9 m/s

Arrow 3 mass = 90 g   speed = 9 m/s

Horizontal Force:- F₁ , F₂ and F₃

There is no air resistance.

If Air resistance is zero then the horizontal acceleration of the arrow also equal to zero.

We know,

According to newton's second law

        F = m a

If Acceleration is equal to zero

Then Force is also equal to zero.

Hence, F₁ = F₂ = F₃ = 0 N

Why is it correct to say that the linear electron flow of the light reactions directly captures energy in nadph but only indirec
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

he electron is directly transferred to NADP+ to NADPH, but electron flow is used to generate a proton gradient for ATP synthesis. Electron is not directly transferred to ATP

NADP= Nicotin amide adenine dinucleotide phosphate

NADPH =Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate is the reduced form of  NADP

therefore electron is not directly transferred to ATP

A block is projected up a frictionless inclined plane with initial speed v0 = 1.72 m/s. The angle of incline is θ = 44.8°. (a) H
Snowcat [4.5K]

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity(v_0)=1.72 m/s

\theta =44.8{\circ}

using v^2-u^2=2as

Where v=final velocity (Here v=0)

u=initial velocity(1.72 m/s)

a=acceleration   (gsin\theta )

s=distance traveled

0-(1.72)^2=2(-9.81\times sin(44.8))s

s=0.214 m

(b)time taken to travel 0.214 m

v=u+at

0=1.72-gsin(44.8)\times t

t=\frac{1.72}{9.8\times sin(44.8)}

t=0.249 s

(c)Speed of the block at bottom

v^2-u^2=2as

Here u=0 as it started coming downward

v^2=2\times gsin(44.8)\times 0.214

v=\sqrt{2.985}

v=1.72 m/s

How must a fuse be connected in a circuit to prevent current from flowing when the circuit becomes ""overloaded""?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The fuse must be connected between the device and the power intake source.

Explanation:

A fuse is a protective component of electrical appliances that is designed to be sensitive to a particular range of electric current

The fuse is made of a thing metal strip with a known melting point. Once current abive its carrying capacity flows through it, large heat is generated in the metal strip which melts it and causes the metal strip to cut int two protecting the device from the power spike.
