Answer:
Explanation:
Impulse on an object is given by .
However, it's also given as change in momentum (impulse-momentum theorem).
Therefore, we can set the change in momentum equal to the former formula for impulse:
.
Momentum is given by . Because the truck's mass is maintained, only it's velocity is changing. Since the truck is being slowed from 26.0 m/s to 18.0 m/s, it's change in velocity is 8.0 m/s. Therefore, it's change in momentum is:
.
Now we plug in our values and solve:
(two significant figures).
Answer:
T₂ = 1937.68 N
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the weight of the object:
Now, we will calculate the resultant tension in the ropes. Since the ropes are perpendicular. Therefore,
where,
T = Resultant Tension
T₁ = Tension in rope 1
T₂ = Tension in rope 2
According to the given condition tension in the first rope is 2.2 times the tension in the second rope:
T₁ = 2.2 T₂
Therefore
Now, the weight of the object must be equal to the resultant tension for equilibrium:
<u>T₂ = 1937.68 N</u>
