2. A rock is dropped off a bridge. How fast is the rock
zhenek [66]

Answer:

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second, v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,  v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,  v = 53.9 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The rock is dropped from a bridge.

The initial velocity of the rock, u = 0

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second,

   Using the first equation of motion

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 1

                          v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 3

                          v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 5.5

                         v = 53.9 m/s

Class II levers like ankles and wheelbarrows are useful because they provide mechanical advantage, by amplifying the input force
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The solution and the explanation are in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

According to the diagram that is in the attached image, the EFFORT force at point A and the load is at O point. The torque due to weight is:

TA = W * (a * cosθ)

The torque due to effort at C point is:

TC = E * (b * cosθ)

The net torque is equal to 0, we have:

Tnet = 0

W * (a * cosθ) - E * (b * cosθ) = 0

E=W\frac{a}{b}

From the figure, you can observe that a/b < 1, thus E < W

Can someone help me?!!!!!
ladessa [460]

Answer:

magnitude: 21.6; direction: 33.7 degrees

Explanation:

When we multiply a vector by a scalar, we have to multiply each component of the vector by the scalar number. In this case, we have

vector: (-3,-2)

Scalar: -6

so the vector multiplied by the scalar will have components

(-3\cdot (-6), -2 \cdot (-6))=(18,12)

The magnitude is given by Pythagorean's theorem:

m=\sqrt{18^2+12^2}=21.6

and the direction is given by the arctan of the ratio between the y-component and the x-component:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{12}{18})=33.7^{\circ}

An automatic dryer spins wet clothes at an angular speed of 5.2 rad/s. Starting from rest, the dryer reaches its operating speed
Dvinal [7]
<h2>Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u =  0 rad/s

     Final velocity, v = 5.2 rad/s    

     Time, t = ?

     Acceleration, a = 3.2 rad/s²

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      5.2 = 0 + 3.2 x t

                      t = 1.625 s

Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.
