A bucket filled with water has a mass of 54 kg and is hanging from a rope that is wound around a 0.050 m radius stationary cylin
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bucket = 54 kg

Radius = 0.050 m

We need to calculate the magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder

Using formula of torque

\tau=F\times r

\tau=mg\times r

Where, m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

\tau=54\times9.8\times0.050

\tau=26.46\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

A tennis ball is thrown against a vertical concrete wall that is fixed to the ground. The ball bounces off the wall. How does th
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

A guy wire 1005 feet long is attached to the top of a tower. When pulled taut, it touches level ground 552 feet from the base of
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

56.7°

Explanation:

Imagine a rectangle triangle.

The triangle has 3 sides.

One side is the height of the tower, let's name it A.

Another side is the distance from the base of the tower to the point where the waire touches the ground. Let's name that B.

Sides A and B are perpendicular.

The other side is the length of the wire. Let's name it C.

From trigonometry we know that:

cos(a) = B / C

Where a is the angle between B anc C, between the wire and the ground.

Therefore

a = arccos(B/C)

a = arccos(552/1005) = 56.7°

An elevator and its load have a combined mass of 1650 kg. Find the tension in the supporting cable when the elevator, originally
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Tension in the supporting cable is = 4,866 N ≅4.9 KN

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand that tension is a force, so the motion law

F = Ma applies perfectly.

From Newtons third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the force experienced by the elevator, is equal to the tension experienced by the spring.

Parameters given:

Mass of load = 1650 kg

Acceleration of load = ?

The acceleration of the load can be obtained by diving the change in velocity by the time taken. But we need to know the time taken for the motion to 41 m.

Time taken = distance covered / velocity

= \frac{41m}{11m/s} = 3.73 seconds

∴Acceleration = ( initial velocity - final velocity )/ time taken

Note: Final velocity is = 0 since the body came to a rest.

Acceleration = \frac{11 - 0 m/s}{3.73s} = 2.95m/s^{2}

Force acting on the cable = mass of elevator × acceleration of elevator

= 1650 × 2.95 = 4869.5 kg ≅ 4.9 KN

Explain why a car driving around a curve at a constant speed is accelerating.
GREYUIT [131]
But the fact is that an accelerating object is an object that is changing it’s velocity.. for this reason , it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing .
