A person weighing 500 N climbs on a rope. What is the tension on the rope?

2 answers:

8 0

At the times when the person is not moving up or down, the tension in
the rope is 500N. At those moments, the forces on the person consist
of 500N downward due to gravity and 500N upward due to the tension in
the rope, and with the forces balanced, the person just hangs there and
doesn't accelerate up or down.

At the times when the person is actually climbing, that is, hauling himself
upward, the tension in the rope must be greater than 500N. At those moments,
the net force on the person is upward, and the person's body accelerates upward.

the tension of a person weighing 500 pounds on a rope will make the rope break little by little,untill it gets to the point the rope snaps.

While seeds are forming, another plant part forms around them. Animals eat this part and carry the seeds to a new spot.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) fruit</em>

Explanation:

Both the gymnosperm and the angiosperms plants produce seed. Seeds are an essential part of reproduction in plants.

After fertilization has occurred, the ripened ovule is the part which turns into a seed. The size of the seeds depends on the type if plant.

After fertilization, the ovary forms the fruit. As the ovule is present in the ovule hence after fertilization, the seed which was made from the ovule gets enclosed in the fruit which was made from the ovary.

In a double slit experiment, the distance between the slits is 0.2 mm and the distance to the screen is 100 cm. What is the phas

Anni [7]

Answer:

The phase difference is $\Delta \phi = 180^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance between the slits is $d = 0.2 \ mm = \frac{0.2}{1000} = 0.2 *10^{-3} \ m$

The distance to the screen is $D = 100 cm = \frac{100}{100} = 1 \ m$

The wavelength is $\lambda = 400nm$

The distance of the wave from the central maximum is $L = 5mm = 5*10^{-3} m$

Generally the path difference of this waves is mathematically represented as

$y = d sin \theta$

Here $\theta$ is the angle between the the line connecting the mid-point of the slits with the screen and the line connecting the mid-point of the slits to the central maximum

This implies that

$tan \theta = \frac{L}{D}$

=> $\theta = tan ^{-1} \frac{L}{D}$

$\theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{5*10^{-3}}{1}]$

$\theta =0.2865$

Substituting values into the formula for path difference

$y = 0.2 *10^{-3} sin(0.2864)$

$y = 9.997*10^{-7} \ m$

The phase difference is mathematically represented as

$\Delta \phi = \frac{2 \pi }{\lambda } * y$

Substituting values

$\Delta \phi = \frac{2 \pi }{400 *10^{-9} } \ * 9.997*10^{-7}$

$\Delta \phi =5 \pi$

Converting to degree

$\Delta \phi =5 \pi radians = 5 (180^o) = 180^o$

the solution is subtracted by 360° in order to get the actual angle

A solution is prepared by dissolving 17.75 g sulfuric acid, h2so4, in enough water to make 100.0 ml of solution. if the density

Yuliya22 [10]

The solution of Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4) has the following mole fractions:

mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.034
mole fraction (H2O)= 0.966

To solve this problem the formula and the procedure that we have to use is:

n = m / MW
= ∑ AWT
mole fraction = moles of A component / total moles of solution
ρ = m /v

Where:

m = mass
n = moles
MW = molecular weight
AWT = atomic weight
ρ = density
v = volume

Information about the problem:

m solute (H2SO4) = 17.75 g
v(solution) = 100 ml
ρ (solution)= 1.094 g/ml
AWT (H)= 1 g/mol
AWT (S) = 32 g/mol
AWT (O)= 16 g/mol
mole fraction(H2SO4) = ?
mole fraction(H2O) = ?

We calculate the moles of the H2SO4 and of the H2O from the Pm:

MW = ∑ AWT

MW (H2SO4)= AWT (H) * 2 + AWT (S) + AWT (O) * 4

MW (H2SO4)= (1 g/mol * 2) + (32,064 g/mol) + (16 g/mol * 4)

MW (H2SO4)= 2 g/mol + 32 g/mol + 64 g/mol

MW (H2SO4)= 98 g/mol

MW (H2O)= AWT (H) * 2 + AWT (O)

MW (H2O)= (1 g/mol * 2) + (16 g/mol)

MW (H2O)= 2 g/mol + 16 g/mol

MW (H2O)= 18 g/mol

Having the Pm we calculate the moles of H2SO4:

n = m / MW

n(H2SO4) = m(H2SO4) / MW (H2SO4)

n(H2SO4) = 17.75 g / 98 g/mol

n(H2SO4) = 0.1811 mol

With the density and the volume of the solution we get the mass:

ρ(solution)= m(solution) /v(solution)

m(solution) = v(solution) * ρ(solution)

m(solution) = 100 ml * 1.094 g/ml

m(solution) = 109.4 g

Having the mass of the solution we calculate the mass of the water in the solution:

m(H2O) = m(solution) - m solute (H2SO4)

m(H2O) = 109.4 g - 17.75 g

m(H2O) = 91.65 g

We calculate the moles of H2O:

n = m / MW

n(H2O) = m(H2O) / MW (H2O)

n(H2O) = 91.65 g / 18 g/mol

n(H2O) = 5.092 mol

We calculate the total moles of solution:

total moles of solution = n(H2SO4) + n(H2O)

total moles of solution = 0.1811 mol + 5.092 mol

total moles of solution = 5.2731 mol

With the moles of solution we can calculate the mole fraction of each component:

mole fraction (H2SO4)= moles of (H2SO4) / total moles of solution

mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.1811 mol / 5.2731 mol

mole fraction (H2SO4)= 0.034

mole fraction (H2O)= moles of (H2O) / total moles of solution

mole fraction (H2O)= 5.092 mol / 5.2731 mol

mole fraction (H2O)= 0.966

Which of these words describes humans

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Human are eurkaryotic. Eukaryotes are organisms that have cells with a nucleus. Prokayotes are cells without a nucleus. Protists are eukaryotic but they are usually single cellular. Also, human are not fungus. Fungus cannot move and have to get food from its surrounding area.
