- Initial velocity=20m/s
- Final velocity=0m/s(As the car stops)
- Acceleration=-8m/s^2
- Distance=s=26m
We need to verify the thrid equation of kinematics here
The squirrel has a good luck ,Car gets stopped just 1m away from the squirrel .
Answer:
b. 375 N
Explanation:
System of forces in balance
ΣFy = 0 Equation (1)
Forces acting on the board
T₁: Tension in the left chain , vertical and upward
T₂ = 250 N : Tension in the right chain , vertical and upward
W₁ = 125 N : Weight of the board , vertical and downward
W₂ = 500 N : Weight of the person , vertical and downward
Calculation of the T₁
We apply the Equation (1)
ΣFy = 0
T₁+T₂-W₁-W₂ = 0
T₁ = -T₂+W₁+W₂
T₁ = -250 N+ 125 N+ 500 N
T₁ = 375 N
Probably to be more accurate. With hand-operated stop watches there is more room for (human) error.
Here are the correct answers that would complete the given statement above. The vector quantity and the vector arrow are used to calculate magnitude and direction of a resultant vector. Vector quantity has both magnitude and direction, whereas vector arrow represents<span> the magnitude of a quantity and the direction represents the direction of that quantity. </span>Hope this is the answer that you are looking for.
