In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one sid

e or the other. Two students pull with force 196 N each to the right, four students pull with force 98 N each to the left, five students pull with force 62 N each to the left, three students pull with force 150 N each to the right, and one student pulls with force 250 N to the left. Assuming the positive direction to the right, express the net pull on the knot in terms of the unit vector. How big is the net pull on the knot? In what direction?

Answer:

Net pull = 110 N to the left

Explanation:

Group the different pulls according to the direction (right or left)

2 pull 196 N each to the right

4 pull 98 N each to the left

5 pull 62 N each to the left

3 pull 150 N each to the right

1 pull 250 N to the left

Since positive direction is to the right, the pulls to the left will have a minus (-)

Net Force= 2(196)+4(-98)+5(-62)+3(150)+1(-250) \\Net Force = -110

The resulting force is negative, meaning the direction is to the left

Artyom0805 [142]
I already answered this quesiton. The fact is that there are only two kind of poles and since the two taped poles of the magnets labeled A and B attracts one to each other, we know that the two taped poles of the first two magnets are oppsosite.

Then, the taped pole of the third magnet has to be equal to one of the first two taped poles and opposite to the other of the first two taped poles.

That drives you to conclude (predict)  that when she brings the taped end of the third magnet (magnet C) near each of the first two magntes, in one case they will attract each other and in the other case they will repele mutually.

Answer:

I do agree with the student. Because imagene you have a tissue and a stick. And you throw them at the same speed , the stick will go farther because it' s heavier but the tissue would just blow around and not go forward because it is not heavy enought.

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp
Arisa [49]

Incomplete question.The complete question is here

Determine the torque applied to the shaft of a car that transmits 225 hp and rotates at a rate of 3000 rpm.

Answer:

Torque=0.51 Btu

Explanation:

Given Data

Power=225 hp

Revolutions =3000 rpm

To find

T( torque )=?

Solution

As

T(Torque)=\frac{W(Work)}{2\pi n(Revolutions) }

As force moves an object through a distance, work is done on the object. Likewise, when a torque rotates an object through an angle, work is done.

So

T=\frac{225*42.207}{2\pi 3000}\\ T=0.51 Btu
