Objects are known to go down because of a unbalanced force
Answer:
The magnitude of the torque is 263.5 N.
Explanation:
Given that,
Applied force = 31 N
Distance from the axis = 8.5 m
She applies her force perpendicularly to a line drawn from the axis of rotation
So, The angle is 90°
We need to calculate the torque
Using formula of torque

Where, F = force
d = distance
Put the value into the formula


Hence, The magnitude of the torque is 263.5 N.
It would be either A or C if its still moving and not stopping
Answer:
3.95979 m/s
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration

Here 


Initial velocity of the puck should be 3.95979 m/s
Refer to the diagram shown below
Given:
m = 2.8 kg, the mass of the bucket
a =3.1 m/s², the acceleration of the bucket
Therefore
W = 2.8*9.8 = 27.44 N, the weight of the bucket.
Let T = the tension in the rope.
From the free body diagram, the net force accelerating the bucket is
T - W = m*a
That is,
T = W + m*a
= 27.44 + 2.8*3.1 N
= 36.12 N
Answer: d. 36.1 N
