<span>The wires are suspended diagonally, meaning the tension in each is directed diagonally as well (along the wire). We can, however, talk about the horizontal and vertical components of the tension force. The horizontal tension force in each wire is Tcosθ, while the vertical tension force is Tsinθ. The horizontal tension forces balance one another, because the wires are pulling in opposite directions. This means Tcosθ=Tcosθ, which is obvious but not very helpful. If you look at the vertical tension forces on the other hand, you can see that they must balance the weight of the body for the system to be in equilibrium. In other words: Tsinθ+Tsinθ=mg You're given enough information in the question to solve for T using this equation!</span>

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

5,000J

Explanation:

Work = Force x Distance

Distance back and forth is canceled out, so either the answer is + or -

5.0m + 5.0m = 10.0m

500N x 10.0m = 5,000J

Answer:

Answer:

3 g/cm          

Explanation:

Mass of stone = 30 g

Initial volume of cylinder = 50 cm

Increased volume = 60 cm

Volume = 60-50

= 10 cm

Density of stone = Mass/Volume

= 30/10

= 3 g/ml            as 1 ml = 1 cm

= 3 g/ml

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The right solution will be the "2v".

Explanation:

For something like an object underneath pure rolling the speed at any point is calculated by:

⇒  v_{rolling}=v_{translational}+v_{rotational}

Although the angular velocity was indeed closely linked to either the transnational velocity throughout particular instance of pure rolling as:

⇒  \omega=\frac{v_{translational}}{r}

Significant meaning is obtained, as speeds are in the same direction. Therefore the speed of rotation becomes supplied by:

⇒  v_{rotational}=\omega \times r

On substituting the estimated values, we get

⇒                   =\frac{v_{translational}}{r} \times r

⇒                   =v_{translational}

So that the velocity will be:

⇒  v_{rolling}=v+v

⇒              =2v
