Tarzan tries to cross a river by swinging from one bank to the other on a vine that is 10.0 m long. His speed at the bottom of t

he swing is 8.0 m/s. Tarzan does not know that the vine has a breaking strength of 1.0 x 103 N. What is the largest mass that Tarzan can have and still make it safely across the river?

Answer:

61.73 kg

Explanation:

Maximum Tension, t = 1000 N

Let the mass of Tarzan is m.

Length of the rope, l = 10 m

velocity, v = 8 m/s

At the lowest point

T - mg = mv²/l

1000 - m x g = m x 64/10

1000 = m ( 9.8 + 6.4 )

m = 1000 / 16.2

m = 61.73 kg

Thus, the largest mass of Tarzan should be 61.73 kg.

Answer:61.72 kg

Explanation:

Given

Length of rope L=10 m

Speed at bottom of swing v=8 m/s

Breaking strength of string T=1000 N

At bottom Point

weight is acting downward and Tension is opposing it

Thus T-mg=\frac{mv^2}{L}

T=mg+\frac{mv^2}{L}

1000=m(9.8+\frac{8^2}{10})

1000=m\cdot 16.2

m=61.72 kg

maximum mass Tarzan can have is 61.72 kg

Which is the term used for a change in the magnitude of the velocity
Alborosie
Rate of change of velocity is called acceleration. When this rate of change is constant, it is called uniform acceleration. Like the change of velocity of an object falling freely under gravity. Its velocity increases by 9.8 m every second. This acceleration is denoted as 9.8m/s^2

In an electromagnetics lab, you are studying two coils which have a mutual inductance of M=300 mH. Suppose that the current in t
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

The mutual inductance of the two coils is

M = 300mH = 300 × 10^-3 H

M = 0.3 H

Current increase in the coil from 2.8A to 10A

∆I = I_2 - I_1 = 10 - 2.8

∆I = 7.2 A

Within the time 300ms

t = 300ms = 300 × 10^-3

t = 0.3s

Second Coil resistance

R_2 = 0.4 ohms

We want to find the current in the second coil,

The same induced EMF is in both coils, so let find the EMF,

From faradays law

ε = Mdi/dt

ε = M•∆I / ∆t

ε = 0.3 × 7.2 / 0.3

ε = 7.2 Volts

Now, this is the voltage across both coils,

Applying ohms law to the second coil, V=IR

ε = I_2•R_2

0.72 = I_2 • 0.4

I_2 = 0.72 / 0.4

I_2 = 1.8 Amps

The current in the second coil is 1.8A
