A uniform shelf 1.8 meters long with mass 15 kg is mounted by a small hinge on a wall. The beam is held in a horizontal position

by a cable that makes an angle of 37°. There is a 4.9-kg round light hanging down and is 0.55 meters from the wall. What is the tension in the supporting cable?

Answer:

 T = 153.72 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the conditions of translational and rotational equilibrium.

Let's set a frame of reference on the hinge, start by writing the rotational equilibrium relationship, suppose counterclockwise rotation is positive

We look for the components of the cable tension with trigonometry

           cos 37 = Tₓ / T

           sin 37 = T_{y} / T

           Tₓ = T cos 37

           T_{y} = T sin 37

the expression for rotational equilibrium is

        T_{y} L + Tₓ 0 - W L / 2 - W_light  0.55 = 0

where L is the length L=  1.8 m,

        T_{y} = (W L/2 + W_lght 0.55) / L

        T sin 37 = Mg /2 + m_light g 0.55 / L

        T = (M / 2 + m_light 0.55 / L) g / sin 35

 let's calculate

        T = (15/2 + 4.9 0.55 / 1.8) 9.8 / sin 35

         T = 153.72 N

A car is moving in the positive direction along a straight highway and accelerates at a constant rate while going from point A t
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The time where the avergae speed equals the instaneous speed is T/2

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is:

v(t) = v0 + at

Where v0 is the initial speed and a is the constant acceleration.

Let's find the average speed. This is given integrating the velocity from 0 to T and dividing by T:

v_{ave} = \frac{1}{T}\int\limits^T_0 {v(t)} \, dt

v_ave = v0+a(T/2)

We can esaily note that when <u><em>t=T/2</em></u><u><em> </em></u>

v(T/2)=v_ave

Now we want to know where the car should be, the osition of the car is:

x(t) = x_A + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Where x_A is the position of point A. Therefore, the car will be at:

<u><em>x(T/2) = x_A + v_0 (T/2) + (1/8)aT^2</em></u>

A car which is traveling at a velocity of 15 m/s undergoes an acceleration of 6.5 m/s2 over a distance of 340 m. How fast is it
fomenos

Answer:68.15m/s

Explanation:

<u><em>Given: </em></u>

v₁=15m/s

a=6.5m/s²

v₁=?

x=340m

<u><em>Formula:</em></u>

v₁²=v₁²+2a (x)

<u>Set up:</u>

=\sqrt{15m/s} ^{2} +2(6.5m/s^2)(340m)

<h2><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>68.15m/s</em></u></h2>
