Answer:

b. 375 N

Explanation:

System of forces in balance

ΣFy = 0 Equation (1)

Forces acting on the board

T₁: Tension in the  left chain ,  vertical and upward

T₂ = 250 N : Tension in the right chain ,  vertical and upward

W₁ = 125 N : Weight of the  board , vertical and downward

W₂ =  500 N : Weight of the  person , vertical and downward

Calculation of the T₁

We apply the Equation (1)

ΣFy = 0  

T₁+T₂-W₁-W₂ = 0

T₁ = -T₂+W₁+W₂

T₁ = -250 N+ 125 N+ 500 N

T₁ = 375 N

What is the tangential velocity of a record player which makes 11 revolutions in 20 seconds?
slava [35]

Answer:

The tangential velocity of a rotating object is:

v = r*w

where r is the radius, and w is the angular velocity.

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency.

We know that the record plater does 11 revolutions in 20 seconds, then it does:

11 rev/20s = 0.55 rev/s = f

then we have:

w = 2*pi*0.55 s^-1 = 2*3.14*0.55 s^-1 = 3.454 s^-1

The radius of a record player is really variable, it is around 10 inches, so i will use r = 10in, which is the rotating part of the record player.

then the tangential velocity is:

v = 10in*3.454 s^-1 = 34.54 in/s

A blue line with 5 orange tick marks then one red tick mark then 4 orange tick marks. The number zero is above the red tick mark
Digiron [165]

Answer:

16 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The object begins from 0 and moves 3cm towards left side followed by 7 cm towards the right and then, 6 cm towards the left side.

Let the x-axis to be the +ve and on the right side and -ve on the left

Thus, displacement would be:

= 0 -3 + 7 -6

= -2 cm

This implies that the object displaces 2cm towards the left.

While the total distance covered by the object equal to,

= 0cm + 3cm + 7cm + 6cm

= 16 cm

Thus, <u>16 cm</u> is the total distance.
