Answer:

Mass, m = 1500 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the truck, F = 3000 N

Acceleration of the truck, a=2\ m/s^2

Let m is the mass of the truck. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as

F = m × a

m=\dfrac{F}{a}

m=\dfrac{3000}{2}

m = 1500 kg

So, the mass of the truck is 1500 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.

A man supports himself and the uniform horizontal beam pulling the rope with a force T.The weights of men and the beam are 883 N
artcher [175]

Answer:

T=502.5N

Ax=171.8N

Explanation:

The computation of the tension T in the rope and the forces exerted by the pin at A is shown below:

vertical forces sum = Ay + Tsin20 + T - 245 - 883 = 0

Now  

horizontal forces sum = Ax - Tcos70

Now Moment about B

-Ay × 4.8 + 245 × 2.4 + 883 × 1.8=0

Ay=453.6N

Now substitute in sum of vertical forces T=502.5N

Ax=171.8N

If a ball that is 10 meters above the ground is thrown horizontally at 5.51 meters per second. a. how long will it take for the
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a. t = 1.43 s

b. d = 7.88 m

Explanation:

a. The time of flight can be found using the following equation:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Where:

y_{f}: is the final height = -10 m

y_{0}: is the initial height = 0

v_{0_{y}}: is the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

By solving the above equation for "t" we have:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2y_{f}}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*10 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s

Hence, the ball will hit the ground in 1.43 s.

b. The distance in the horizontal direction can be found as follows:

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Where:

x₀: is the initial position in the horizontal direction = 0

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0 (it is moving at constant speed)

x_{f} = 5.51 m/s*1.43 s = 7.88 m

Therefore, the ball will travel 7.88 m before it hits the ground.

I hope it helps you!

State the methods of nuclear fission waste disposal and the suitability of each method.
Alexeev081 [22]
<span>Most low-level radioactive waste (LLW) is typically sent to land-based disposal immediately following its packaging for long-term management. This means that for the majority (~90% by volume) of all of the waste types produced by nuclear technologies, a satisfactory disposal means has been developed and is being implemented around the world.
</span>

Radioactive wastes are stored so as to avoid any chance of radiation exposure to people, or any pollution.The radioactivity of the wastes decays with time, providing a strong incentive to store high-level waste for about 50 years before disposal.Disposal of low-level waste is straightforward and can be undertaken safely almost anywhere.Storage of used fuel is normally under water for at least five years and then often in dry storage.<span>Deep geological disposal is widely agreed to be the best solution for final disposal of the most radioactive waste produced.

What does the law of conservation of energy state?
VikaD [51]

The total amount of energy remains constant in an isolated system. It implies that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be change from one form to another.
