We first calculate the work effectively done by the force when it compressed the steel cylinder. This is solved by multiplying the distance that the cylinder was compressed by and its causing force.
0.010 m * 13,000 N = 130 N-m

Then, we solve for the work done by the 1,500 N force:
0.10 m * 1,500 N = 150 N-m

We then take the ratio of the efficient:experimental
130 N-m / 150 N-m = 0.87 = 87%

The radial acceleration is $a_c = 0.9574 m/s^2$

The horizontal Tension is $T_x = 0.3294 i \ N$

The vertical Tension is $T_y =3.3712 j \ N$

Explanation:

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the first uploaded

From the question we are told that

The length of the string is $L = 10.7 \ cm = 0.107 \ m$

The mass of the bob is $m = 0.344 \ kg$

The angle made by the string is $\theta = 5.58^o$

The centripetal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Now From the diagram we see that this force is equivalent to

$F = Tsin \theta$ where T is the tension on the rope and v is the linear velocity

So

$Tsin \theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Now the downward normal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

$Tcos \theta = mg$

So

$\frac{Tsin \ttheta }{Tcos \theta } = \frac{\frac{mv^2}{r} }{mg}$

=> $tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{rg}$

=> $g tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{r}$

The centripetal acceleration which the same as the radial acceleration of the bob is mathematically represented as

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$

=> $a_c = gtan \theta$

substituting values

$a_c = 9.8 * tan (5.58)$

$a_c = 0.9574 m/s^2$

The horizontal component is mathematically represented as

$T_x = Tsin \theta = ma_c$

substituting value

$T_x = 0.344 * 0.9574$

$T_x = 0.3294 \ N$

The vertical component of tension is

$T_y = T \ cos \theta = mg$

substituting value

$T_ y = 0.344 * 9.8$

$T_ y = 3.2712 \ N$

The vector representation of the T in term is of the tension on the horizontal and the tension on the vertical is

$T = T_x i + T_y j$

substituting value

$T = [(0.3294) i + (3.3712)j ] \ N$

A 75kg man climbs the stairs to the fifth floor of a building. A total hieght of 16m. His potential energy has increased by

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules

Suppose that instead of being inclined to Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Moonâs orbit was in the same plane as Earthâs orbit

ycow [4]

Answer:

c) 12

Explanation:

A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.

If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.

Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a problem based on time dilation , a theory given by Albert Einstein .

The formula of time dilation is as follows .

t₁ = $\frac{t}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }$

t is time measured on the earth and t₁ is time measured by man on ship .

A ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

$\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }$

=1.09 x 20

t₁= 21.82 years

B ) Given t = 5 years , t₁ = ? v = .2c

$\frac{5}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.04c^2}{c^2} } }$

=1.02 x 5

t₁= 5.1 years

C ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

$\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }$

=1.67 x 10

t₁= 16.7 years

D ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

$\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }$

=1.09 x 10

t₁= 10.9 years

E ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

$\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }$

=1.67 x 20

t₁= 33.4 years
