A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "40.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

40.0 N without breaking. What is the weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in (a) at constant speed and (b) with an acceleration whose magnitude is 2.57 m/s2?

To solve this problem we require the concept of Forces given by Newton in his second law. For the particular case where the acceleration is 0 and when there is a change of acceleration.

A) For the first case where the speed is constant we have to

F = mg

Here,

a=0m/s^2

Then,

F= mg

40N = m (9.8)

m = 4.077kg

B) Here we have an acceleration of 2.57m / s ^ 2. When there is acceleration it is considered that the sum of forces is dynamic, for that reason when performing the summation, we have

\sum F = ma

F-mg = ma

T = m(a+g)

40= m(9.8+2.57)

m = 3.23kG

Therefore the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically is 3.23KG when there is acceleration but 4.077kg with constant velocity

Suppose that you and three classmates are discussing the design of a roller coaster. One says that each hill must be lower than
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

I would say that I agree with the one that said that each hill must be lower than the previous one and use the principle of conservation of energy to explain.

Explanation:

Roller coaster are usually designed such that its total energy remains conserved at any point on the track. Now,  the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. At certain height on the track, the total energy of the roller coaster is in form of potential energy, which gets converted to kinetic energy as soon as it starts sliding down the hill till get to the hill's endpoint where it has maximum kinetic energy. The cycle of sliding from a high point on the track to a low point on the track means there is potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and kinetic energy then converts back to potential energy and the cycle continues.

However, due to the effect of gravity and frictional force between the track and the coaster, the energy of the coaster is gradually reduces, so it becomes a bit difficult for the coaster to move to the next hill of the same height. It is for this reason that each hill must be lower than the previous one, so that the coaster can overcome the next hill's height with its reduced energy until it loses all its energy and comes to a stop.
