The load that the same type of beam can support is 583.345 pounds if its width is 3.5 inches.

As the maximum load that can be carried by the beam is directly proportional to the width of the beam and a 1.5 inches wide beam can support a load of 250 pounds, an equation can be written as;

L = kw

Here L represents the maximum load supported and w represents the width and k is the constant of proportionality. Therefore;

250 = k × 1.5

Solving for k;

k = 250 ÷ 1.5

k = 166.67

Therefore the equation can be written as;

L = 166.67 w

As the width of the same type of beam is 3.5 inches, the maximum load it can support can be calculated as follows;

L = 166.67 × 3.5

L = 583.345 pounds

Therefore; 583.345 pounds is the maximum load that the beam can support if its width is 3.5 inches.

A particular motor rotates at 3000 revolutions per minute. What is its speed in rad/sec, and how many seconds does it takes to m
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

ω=314.15 rad/s.

0.02 s.

Explanation:

Given that

Motor speed ,N= 3000 revolutions per minute

N= 3000 RPM

The speed of the motor in rad/s given as

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi N}{60}\ rad/s

Now by putting the values in the above equation

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi \times 3000}{60}\ rad/s

ω=314.15 rad/s

Therefore the speed in rad/s will be 314.15 rad/s.

The speed in rev/sec given as

\omega=\dfrac{ 3000}{60}\ rad/s

ω= 50 rev/s

It take 1 sec to cover 50 revolutions

That is why to cover 1 revolution it take

\dfrac{1}{50}=0.02\ s

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are three points in time we need to consider.  At point 0, the mango begins to fall from the tree.  At point 1, the mango reaches the top of the window.  At point 2, the mango reaches the bottom of the window.

We are given the following information:

y₁ = 3 m

y₂ = 3 m − 2.4 m = 0.6 m

t₂ − t₁ = 0.4 s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t₀ = 0 s

v₀ = 0 m/s

We need to find y₀.

Use a constant acceleration equation:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Evaluated at point 1:

3 = y₀ + (0) t₁ + ½ (-9.8) t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

Evaluated at point 2:

0.6 = y₀ + (0) t₂ + ½ (-9.8) t₂²

0.6 = y₀ − 4.9 t₂²

Solve for y₀ in the first equation and substitute into the second:

y₀ = 3 + 4.9 t₁²

0.6 = (3 + 4.9 t₁²) − 4.9 t₂²

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₂²)

We know t₂ = t₁ + 0.4:

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁ + 0.4)²)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁² + 0.8 t₁ + 0.16))

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₁² − 0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (-0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 − 3.92 t₁ − 0.784

0 = 1.616 − 3.92 t₁

t₁ = 0.412

Now we can plug this into the original equation and find y₀:

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 (0.412)²

3 = y₀ − 0.83

y₀ = 3.83

Rounded to two significant figures, the height of the tree is 3.8 meters.
