A 17.0-m-high and 11.0-m-long wall and its bracing under construction are shown in the figure. Calculate the force, in newtons,

exerted by each of the 10 braces if a strong wind exerts a horizontal force of 655 N on each square meter of the wall. Assume that the net force from the wind acts at a height halfway up the wall and that all braces exert equal forces parallel to their lengths. Neglect the thickness of the wall.

The force, in newtons, exerted by each of the 10 braces is 2.135 x 10⁴ N.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

The force is defined as the shear stress or pressure applied per unit area.

F = P/A

Given is a 17.0-m-high and 11.0-m-long wall and its bracing under construction are shown in the figure(attached). The force is exerted by each of the 10 braces, if a strong wind exerts a horizontal force of 655 N on each square meter of the wall. Assume that the net force from the wind acts at a height halfway up the wall and that all braces exert equal forces parallel to their lengths.

Considering the pivot at the base of wall.

From the equilibrium of forces, we have

r₁ x Fwind = r₁ x Fbsinθ

Put the values, we get

Fb = Fwind /10sin35°.............(1)

The wind force is also given by

Fwind = Horizontal force or pressure x Area

Fwind = F/A x hw

           =655 x 17 x 11

F wind = 122,485 N

From equation (1), we have

Fb = Fwind /10sin35°

Fb =  122,485 /10sin35°

Fb = 21,354.6080 N

0r Fb = 2.135 x 10⁴ N

Thus, the force exerted on each of the 10 brace is 2.135 x 10⁴ N.

A man pushes an 250-N crate at constant speed a distance of 30.0 m upward along a rough slope that makes an angle of 60° with th
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

6495.19 Joule

Explanation:

F = Weight of the crate = 250 N

d = Distance the cart is pushed = 30 m

θ = Angle of inclination = 60°

The weight of the crate will be resloved into two components

Fdsinθ and Fdcosθ

Work done by the force of gravity is

W = Fdsinθ

⇒W = 250×30×sin60

⇒W = 6495.19 Joule

∴ The work done by the force of gravity is 6495.19 Joule

At which of the following temperature and pressure levels would a gas be most likely to follow the ideal gas law? A. 0 K and 100
bulgar [2K]
The Ideal Gas Law makes a few assumptions from the Kinetic-Molecular Theory. These assumptions make our work much easier but aren't true under all conditions. The assumptions are,

1) Particles of a gas have virtually no volume and are like single points.
2) Particles exhibit no attractions or repulsions between them.
3) Particles are in continuous, random motion.
4) Collisions between particles are elastic, meaning basically that when they collide, they don't lose any energy.
5) The average kinetic energy is the same for all gasses at a given temperature, regardless of the identity of the gas.

It's generally true that gasses are mostly empty space and their particles occupy very little volume. Gasses are usually far enough apart that they exhibit very little attractive or repulsive forces. When energetic, the gas particles are also in fairly continuous motion, and without other forces, the motion is basically random. Collisions absorb very little energy, and the average KE is pretty close.

Most of these assumptions are dependent on having gas particles very spread apart. When is that true? Think about the other gas laws to remember what properties are related to volume.

A gas with a low pressure and a high temperature will be spread out and therefore exhibit ideal properties.

So, in analyzing the four choices given, we look for low P and high T.

A is at absolute zero, which is pretty much impossible, and definitely does not describe a gas. We rule this out immediately.

B and D are at the same temperature (273 K, or 0 °C), but C is at 100 K, or -173 K. This is very cold, so we rule that out.

We move on to comparing the pressures of B and D. Remember, a low pressure means the particles are more spread out. B has P = 1 Pa, but D has 100 kPa. We need the same units to confirm. Based on our metric prefixes, we know that kPa is kilopascals, and is thus 1000 pascals. So, the pressure of D is five orders of magnitude greater! Thus, the answer is B.
