A crate with a mass of 175.5 kg is suspended from the end of a uniform boom with a mass of 94.7 kg. The upper end of the boom is
supported by a cable attached to the wall and the lower end by a pivot (marked X) on the same wall.
Calculate the tension in the cable.
Calculate the tension in the cable.
1 answer:
The tension in the cable is mathematically given as
T =266.659 N
<h3>What is the tension in the cable.?</h3>Generally, the equation for the angle of the boom with horizontal is mathematically given as
A = tan-1(5 /10)
The angle of cable with horizontal
B = tan-1(4 / 10)
B= 21.80 degrees
Hence
175.5 * cos26.57 + 94.7 *cos26.57 * 1/2 = T (sin(26.57+21.80)) * 1
T =266.659 N
In conclusion, the tension in the cable.
T =266.659 N

Answer:
The speed of the 1 kg red ball 8.04 m/s .
Explanation:
Given :
Separation between rods , d = 1.5 m .
Mass of the red ball is 1 kg .
Mass of the orange ball is 5.7 kg .
Angular velocity , .
Now , distance of center of mass from red ball is :
We know , speed is given by :
Hence , this is the required solution .
Answer:
0.0241875 m
Explanation:
= Mass of quarterback = 80 kg
= Mass of football = 0.43 kg
= Velocity of quarterback
= Velocity of football = 15 m/s
Time taken = 0.3 seconds
In this system as the linear momentum is conserved
Assuming this velocity is constant
The distance the quarterback will move in the horizontal direction is 0.0241875 m
