Answer

given,

mass of the person, m = 50 Kg

length of scaffold = 6 m

mass of scaffold, M= 70 Kg

distance of person standing from one end = 1.5 m

Tension in the vertical rope = ?

now equating all the vertical forces acting in the system.

T₁ + T₂ = m g + M g

T₁ + T₂ = 50 x 9.8  + 70 x 9.8

T₁ + T₂ = 1176...........(1)

system is equilibrium so, the moment along the system will also be zero.

taking moment about rope with tension T₂.

now,

T₁ x 6 - mg x (6-1.5) - M g x 3 = 0

'3 m' is used because the weight of the scaffold pass through center of gravity.

6 T₁ = 50 x 9.8 x 4.5 + 70 x 9.8 x 3

6 T₁ = 4263

    T₁ = 710.5 N

from equation (1)

T₂ = 1176 - 710.5

 T₂ = 465.5 N

hence, T₁ = 710.5 N and T₂ = 465.5 N

What is the work of the force F (6.0N)(4.0N)j(-2.0N)k when the object moves from an initial point with coordinates (1.5 m, 3.0m,
Alina [70]

Answer:

option (c) - 10 j

Explanation:

F = (6 i + 4 j - 2 k) N

r1 = (1.5, 3, -4.5) m = (1.5 i + 3j - 4.5 k) m

r2 = (4, -2.5, - 3) m = (4 i - 2.5 j - 3 k) m

displacement, r = r2 - r1 = ( 2.5 i - 5.5 j + 1.5 k) m

Work done is defined as the dot product of force vector and teh displacement vector.

W = \overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{r}

W = (6 i + 4 j - 2 k) . ( 2.5 i - 5.5 j + 1.5 k)

W = 15 - 22 - 3 = - 10 J

How will you relate the distance of the planets with their period of revolution ​
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

{t}^{2}  \alpha  {r}^{2}

In other words, the time period squared is directly proportional to the radius of their orbit cubed

Explanation:

By combing equations for gravitational force and centripetal force, you can create a formula for t or r.

April does 1800 J of work to get a canoe moving from rest. April and the canoe have a mass of 70 kg. a. What is the kinetic ener
Katyanochek1 [597]

E = (1/2)mv²

1800 = (1/2)(70)v²

Solving for v²

1800(2)/70 = v²

v² = 55.714

√v² = √55.714

v = ~7.46 m/s
