A man pushes a lawn mower on a level lawn with a force of 186.5 N. If 3.8% of this

Physics
1 answer:
Paladinen [302]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

The force is 186.5 N.  3.8% of the force is directed downward.  So the vertical component of the force is:

Fᵧ = 0.038 (186.5 N)

Fᵧ = 7.087 N

The horizontal component is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fₓ² + Fᵧ²

(186.5 N)² = Fₓ² + (7.087 N)²

Fₓ = 186.4 N

So the work done is:

W = Fd

W = (186.4 N) (7.4 m)

W = 1379 J

Round as needed.

Nana76 [90]

The acceleration is -1.111 m/s²

Explanation:

In this case acceleration is calculated as change in velocity divided by time.

Change in velocity is 20m/s-120 m/s = -100 m/s

Time is 1.5 minutes------change it to seconds by multiplying 1.5 by 60 seconds

Acceleration will be : -100 m/s / (1.5*60) = -1.111 m/s²

A uniform wooden plank with a mass of 75kg and length of 5m is placed on top of a brick wall so that 1.5m of plank extends beyon
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

x₂ = 1.33 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the rotational equilibrium condition, where the counterclockwise rotations are positive and the zero of the reference system is placed at the turning point on the wall

            Στ = 0

            W₁ x₁ - W₂ x₂ = 0

where W₁ is the weight of the woman, W₂ the weight of the table.

Let's find the distances.

Since the table is homogeneous, its center of mass coincides with its geometric center, measured at zero.

           x₁ = 2.5 -1.5 = 1 m

The distance of the person is x₂ measured from the turning point, at the point where the board begins to turn the girl must be on the left side so her torque must be negative

            x₂ = \frac{M_1g  }{m_2 g} \ x_1

           

let's calculate

           x₂ = \frac{100}{75}  \ 1

           x₂ = 1.33 m

If you had an unlimited amount of mass to hang, what would be the range of possible accelerations for the system?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The entire cart/hanging mass system follows the same law, ΣF = ma. This means that plotting force vs. acceleration yields a linear relationship (of the form y = mx).

What energy transformation takes place when an object is pushed up an inclined plane?
Fofino [41]
When you are pushing an object up an inclined plane, the object is gaining gravitational potential energy as it is gaining height. The kinetic energy of the object decreases and converts into that potential energy as you go up. When you have stopped, all of the kinetic energy of the object has fully been converted to gravitational potential energy.
