An object with a mass of m = 122 kg is suspended by a rope from the end of a uniform boom with a mass of M = 74.9 kg and a lengt

h of l = 8.77 m. The end of the boom is supported by another rope which is horizontal and attached to the wall as shown in the figure.
Calculate the tension in the horizontal rope. (The horizontal and the vertical ropes are not connected to each other. They are both independently attached to the end of the boom.)

The the tension in the horizontal rope is 7,019.4 N.

<h3>What is tension?</h3>

Tension is described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar object, or by each end of a rod.

Tension can also be described as the action-reaction pair of forces acting at each end of said elements.

The unit of tension is Newton (same unit as force, since tension is also a force).

<h3>Tension in the horizontal rope</h3>

The tension in the horizontal rope is calculated as follows;

Apply the principle of torque;

T(L/2) cosθ = Mg (L/2) sinθ + mg L sinθ

T = (M + 2m)g sinθ/cosθ

T =  (M + 2m)g tanθ

<em>let θ = 66⁰ (this value should be given in the question)</em>

<em />

T =  (M + 2m)g tanθ

T = (74.9    +   2 x 122)(9.8)(tan 66)

T = 7,019.4 N

Thus, the the tension in the horizontal rope is 7,019.4 N.

Julio hit a baseball. What caused the ball to change direction at the time of impact?
WARRIOR [948]
The answer is c. the force of his swing

At the time of the impact, there is a collision between two bodies moving in opposite directions. 

The force exerted on the ball causes the change of velocity.

A helicopter has blades of length 4.0 m rotating at 3.0 rev/s in a horizontal plane.If the vertical component of the Earth’s mag
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Induced emf, \epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the helicopter, l = 4 m

Angular speed of the helicopter, \omega=3\ rev/s=18.84\ rad/s

The vertical component of the Earth’s magnetic field is, B=6.5\times 10^5\ T

We need to find the induced emf between the tip of a blade and the hub. The induced emf in terms of angular velocity of an rotating object is given by :

\epsilon=\dfrac{1}{2}B\omega l^2

\epsilon=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.5\times 10^5\times 18.84\times (4)^2

\epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts

So, the induced emf between the tip of a blade and the hub is \epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

A copper wire 1.0 meter long and with a mass of .0014 kilograms per meter vibrates in two segments when under a tension of 27 Ne
Furkat [3]

Answer:

the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the copper wire, L = 1 m

mass per unit length of the copper wire, μ = 0.0014 kg/m

tension on the wire, T = 27 N

number of segments, n = 2

The frequency of this mode of vibration is calculated as;

F_n = \frac{n}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\F_2 = \frac{2}{2\times 1} \sqrt{\frac{27}{0.0014} }\\\\F_2 = 138.87 \ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz
