The pressure exerted by the concrete cylinder is 2.60 pound/in².

We need to know about the pressure to solve this problem. Pressure is a unit that describes how much force is applied to a surface area. It can be determined as

P = F / A

where P is pressure, F is force and A is area.

From the question above, we know that

F = 375 pound

A = 144 in²

By substituting the given parameters, we can calculate the pressure

P = F / A

P = 375 / 144

P = 2.60 pound/in²

Thus, the pressure should be 2.60 pound/in².

a 230 kg roller coaster reaches the top of the steepest hill with a speed of 6.2 km/h. It then descends the hill, which is at an
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: 81.619 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Mass of roller coaster is m=230\ kg

It reaches the steepest hill with speed of u=6.2\ km/h\ or \ 1.72\ m/s

Hill to bottom is 51 m long with inclination of 45^{\circ}

Height of the hill is h=51\sin 45^{\circ}=36.06\ m

Conserving energy to get kinetic energy at bottom

Energy at top=Energy at bottom

\Rightarrow K_t+U_t=K_b+U_b\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=K_b+0\\\\\Rightarrow K_b=0.5\times 230\times 1.72^2+230\times 9.8\times 36.06\\\Rightarrow K_b=340.216+81,279.24\\\Rightarrow K_b=81,619.456\ J\\\Rightarrow K_b=81.619\ kJ

You are working at a company that manufactures electri- cal wire. Gold is the most ductile of all metals: it can be stretched in
Alona [7]

Explanation:

We know that the relation between volume and density is as follows.

      Volume = \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}}

So,       V = \frac{10^{-3}}{19.3 \times 10^{3} kg/m^{3}}

               = 5.181 \times 10^{-8} m^{3}

Now, we will calculate the area as follows.

      Area = \frac{\text{volume}}{\text{length}}

               = \frac{5.181 \times 10^{-8} m^{3}}{2.4 \times 10^{3}}

               = 2.15 \times 10^{-11} m^{2}

Formula to calculate the resistance is as follows.

         R = \rho \frac{l}{A}

             = \frac{2.44 \times 10^{-8} \times 2400}{}2.15 \times 10^{-11}}

             = 2.71 \times 10^{6} ohm

Thus, we can conclude that the resistance of given wire is 2.71 \times 10^{6} ohm.

Two cars approach a street corner at right angles to each
irakobra [83]

Answer:

the angle is given by

Tan theta = 35/59 = 0.59

so theta = Tan ^-1 ( 0.59 )

theta = 30.54 deg.

a 1500.0 kg car is at rest on a level track. The driver gives the engine gas and the car begins to accelerate forward. The car m
padilas [110]

Acceleration of the car is 3.375 m/s² and the force of the car moving forward is 5062.5 N

Explanation:

  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.
  • It is given by the equation, a = change in velocity/time

Here, velocity changes from 0 to 27 m/s and time = 8

⇒ Acceleration = 27 - 0/8 = 27/8 = 3.375 m/s²

  • Force is calculated by the equation, F = Mass × Acceleration
  • This is based on Newton's second law of motion.

Here, mass of the car = 1500 kg and a = 3.375 m/s²

⇒ Force = 1500 × 3.375 = 5062.5 N
