Answer:

The tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward

Explanation:

The complete question is:

A 50kg chandelier hangs from a ceiling suspended by a cable. What is the Tension (magnitude and direction of the force) in the cable?

ANS:

Tension is the force applied axially by rope, chain, cable, rod, etc, as a reaction force. The direction of tension is always towards the support. Since, the support here, is ceiling.

Therefore, the direction of tension force will be <u>vertically upward</u><u>.</u>

Since the chandelier is hanging stationary, without any motion. Thus, there must not be any unbalanced force applied on it.

Hence, the tension force must be equal to the weight of chandelier.

Tension Force = Weight of Chandelier

T = W = mg

T = (50 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>Thus, the tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward</u>

A pinball bangs against a bumper giving the ball a speed of 42cm/s if the ball has a mass of 50.0g what is the ball’s kinetic en

Ann [662]

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

mass=50g

velocity=42cm/s

Kinetic energy

<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

As we know that

${\boxed{\sf kinetic\:energy={\dfrac {1}{2}}mv^2}}$

Substitute the values

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf k.v={\dfrac {1}{{\cancel{2}}}}\times 50\times {\cancel{42}}^2$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf k.v=50\times 21^2$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf k.v=50×441$

${:}\longrightarrow$ $\sf k.v=22050MJ$

1Joule=1000milijoules
22050MJ= ${\dfrac {22050}{1000}}=22.05J$
=22J(Approximately)

$\therefore$ ${\underline{\boxed{\bf Kinetic\:energy=22Joule}}}$

Murljashka [212]

Customers are willing to pay what they think something is worth and don't really care about your costs. If your costs push prices above their perceived value, they simply won't buy. If the perceived value is much higher than your costs, they'll happily pay a price that gives you a huge margin. One of the best examples of this is in retail clothing.

A cup of tea at room temperature of 24°C is heated until it has twice the internal energy. Calculate the final temperature of th

elena-s [515]

The final temperature of the tea cup is 100°C.

<h3>What is internal energy?</h3>

The Internal energy is the energy of a substance due to to the constant random motion of its particles.

The symbol for internal energy of a substance is U and it is measured in Joules.

ΔU = q + W

q is the heat, q = mcΔT

W is the mechanical work.

In conclusion, the final temperature of the tea cup at room temperature of 24 °C which is heated until it has twice the internal energy is 100°C.
