A man ties one end of a strong rope 8.17 m long to the bumper of his truck, 0.524 m from the ground, and the other end to a vert

ical tree trunk at a height of 2.99 m. He uses the truck to create a tension of 8.57 102 N in the rope. Compute the magnitude of the torque on the tree due to the tension in the rope, with the base of the tree acting as the reference point.

Answer:

2442.5 Nm

Explanation:

Tension, T = 8.57 x 10^2 N

length of rope, l = 8.17 m

y = 0.524 m

h = 2.99 m

According to diagram

Sin θ = (2.99 - 0.524) / 8.17

Sin θ = 0.3018

θ = 17.6°

So, torque about the base of the tree is

Torque = T x Cos θ x 2.99

Torque = 8.57 x 100 x Cos 17.6° x 2.99

Torque = 2442.5 Nm

thus, the torque is 2442.5 Nm.

You find it takes 200 J of heat to take 4 kg of an unknown substance from 200 K to 240 K. It does not change phases during this
klasskru [66]

Answer:

300 K

Explanation:

First, we have find the specific heat capacity of the unknown substance.

The heat gained by the substance is given by the formula:

H = m*c*(T2 - T1)

Where m = mass of the substance

c = specific heat capacity

T2 = final temperature

T1 = initial temperature

From the question:

H = 200J

m = 4 kg

T1 = 200K

T2 = 240 K

Therefore:

200 = 4 * c * (240 - 200)

200 = 4 * c * 40

200 = 160 * c

c = 200/160

c = 1.25 J/kgK

The heat capacity of the substance is 1.25 J/kgK.

If 300 J of heat is added, the new heat becomes 500 J.

Hence, we need to find the final temperature, T2, when heat is 500 J.

Using the same formula:

500 = 4 * 1.25 * (T2 - 200)

500 = 5 * (T2 - 200)

100 = T2 - 200

=> T2 = 100 + 200 = 300 K

The new final temperature of the unknown substance is 300K.

While riding in a moving car, you toss an egg directly upward. Does the egg tend to land behind you, in front of you, or back in
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

The movement of a body can be analyzed using New's first law. In an inertial frame (without acceleration) every body is kept at rest or moving at constant speed until there is an external force that changes this state

Let's analyze these cases in the framework of this first law

a) If the vehicle is going at constant speed the two bodies (the egg and the hands) do not change movement so he had returned to the hands

b) If the vehicle accelerates the passenger goes faster, but the egg that is not subject to anything does not change the movement, so it falls behind the passenger

c) If the vehicle slows down, the passenger reduces its speed and the distance traveled in time, but the egg that is not attached follows its movement and falls in front of the passenger.
