The book is lifted upward, but gravity points down, so the work done by gravity must be negative (so you can eliminate options 1 and 3).
The force exerted on the book by gravity has magnitude
<em>F</em> = <em>mg</em> = (10 N) (9.80 m/s^2) = 9.8 N ≈ 10 N
You raise the book 1.0 m in the opposite direction, so the work done is
<em>W</em> = (10 N) (-1.0 m) = -10 J
✒ Answer
In the case of still lake and ocean water how are they different in transferring energy from one location to another?
- Answer:Energy is transferred in waves through the vibration of particles
In what direction will you move a rope to create transverse waves?
- Answer: in the direction of the black arrow
In what direction will you move a slinky to create longitudinal waves?
- Answer: parallel to the direction that energy is transported.
Answer:
(i) 
, (ii) 
, (iii)
Explanation:
(i) 
and 
represent the points where particle has a velocity of zero and spring reach maximum deformation, Given the absence of non-conservative force and by the Principle of Energy Conservation, the position where particle is at maximum speed is average of both extreme positions:
(ii) Maximum accelerations is reached at and .
(iii) Greatest net forces exerted on the particle are reached at and .
Answer:
The tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward
Explanation:
The complete question is:
A 50kg chandelier hangs from a ceiling suspended by a cable. What is the Tension (magnitude and direction of the force) in the cable?
ANS:
Tension is the force applied axially by rope, chain, cable, rod, etc, as a reaction force. The direction of tension is always towards the support. Since, the support here, is ceiling.
Therefore, the direction of tension force will be <u>vertically upward</u><u>.</u>
Since the chandelier is hanging stationary, without any motion. Thus, there must not be any unbalanced force applied on it.
Hence, the tension force must be equal to the weight of chandelier.
Tension Force = Weight of Chandelier
T = W = mg
T = (50 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
<u>T = 490 N</u>
<u>Thus, the tension force has a magnitude of 490 N, and acts vertically upward</u>
