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

When bouncing a ball, the bouncing motion results in the ball ____________.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: "B" Changing Position

Great Question!

Explanation: <u><em>When a ball bounces to the ground it hits the ground with some energy. The amount of energy with which it hits the ground is kinetic energy. When it comes in the contact with the ground kinetic energy gets converted into potential energy. This potential energy again gets converted into kinetic energy and balls moves again from the ground and bounces multiple times. So, the ball ends up changing position</em></u>

Calculate the force needed to bring a 1,019-kg car to rest from a speed of 29 m/s in a distance of 118 m
son4ous [18]
Acceleration = ▵v/▵t
Time = d/v
Fisrt calculate time : ( 118/29 ) = 4 seconds
Then calculate acceleration
A = 29/4 = 7.25 m/s²
Now the force.
Force = mass * acceleration.
F= 1,019 * 7.25
F= 7,387 N

The Earth can be approximated as a sphere of uniform density, rotating on its axis once a day. The mass of the Earth is 5.97×102
svetlana [45]

Answer:

I = 97.2 10³⁶ kg m²

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of a body the expression of inertia in the rotational movement and is described by the expression

      I = ∫ r² dm

In this problem we are told to use the moment of inertia of a uniform sphere, the expression of this moment of inertia is

     I = 2/5 M r²

where m is the mass of the earth and r is the radius of the earth.

Let's calculate

      I = 2/5  5.97 10²⁴ (6.38 10⁶)²

      I = 97.2 10³⁶ kg m²
