A bridge is supported by two piers located 14 meters apart. Both the left and right piers provide an upward force on the bridge,

labeled FL and FR respectively. (a) If a 1250 kg car comes to rest at a point 5 meters from the left pier, how much force (in N) will the bridge provide to the left and right piers? (Enter the magnitudes.)

Answer:

4375 N, 7875 N

Explanation:

since the body is equilibrium

total upward force = total downward force

w weight of the bridge = FL + FR

when the car was introduced,

total downward force = total upward force

FL₁ + FR₁ = w + (m × acceleration due to gravity) with w = FL + FR

then FL₁ + FR₁  = FL + FR + Mcg

FL₁ + FR₁  - FL - FR = Mcg

ΔFL + ΔFR = 1250 × 9.8 = 12250 N

taken the left as the pivot point and using the principle of moment

ΔFR × 14 m = 12250 N × 5 m + (ΔFL × 0 m) since the left is the pivot point.

ΔFR = 61250 / 14 = 4375 N

but

ΔFL + ΔFR = 12250 N

ΔFL = 12250 - 4375 = 7875 N

When velocity is graphed with respect to time, what does the area under
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

the answer is D

Explanation:

Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object.

A person jumps out a fourth-story window 14 m above a firefighter safety net. The survivor stretches the net 1.8 m before coming
Monica [59]

Answer:

The deceleration is  a =  - 76.27 m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height above  firefighter safety net is H  = 14 \ m

   The length by which the net is stretched is s =  1.8 \ m

   

From the law of energy conservation

    KE_T + PE_T =  KE_B + PE_B

 Where KE_T is the kinetic energy of the person before jumping which equal to zero(because to kinetic energy at maximum height )

   and  PE_T is the potential energy of the before jumping  which is mathematically represented at

          PE_T  = mg H

and  KE_B is the kinetic energy of the person just before landing on the safety net  which is mathematically represented at

        KE_B = \frac{1}{2} m v^2

and  PE_B is the potential energy of the person as he lands on the safety net which has a value of zero (because it is converted to kinetic energy )

   So the above equation becomes

          mgH =  \frac{1}{2} m v^2

=>           v =  \sqrt{2 gH }

    substituting values

                v =  16.57 m/s

Applying the equation o motion

             v_f =  v  + 2 a s

Now the final velocity is zero because the person comes to rest

      So

         0 = 16.57 + 2 * a * 1.8

            a =  - \frac{16.57^2 }{2 * 1.8}

            a =  - 76.27 m/s^2
