A gardener uses a 60-N wheelbarrow to transport two bags of fertilizer weighing W = 252-N. Determine the maximum allowable horiz

Butoxors [25]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the maximum allowable horizontal distance be represented by "d".

Therefore, torque equation about A will be as follows.

$60 \times 0.15 + 252 \times 0.15 \times 2 + 252 \times d = 2 \times 75 \times (0.7 + 0.15 + 0.15)$

d = $\frac{[2 \times 75 \times (0.7+0.15+0.15) - 60 \times 0.15 - 252 \times 0.15 \times 2]}{252}$

d = 0.409 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum allowable horizontal distance from the axle A of the wheelbarrow to the center of gravity of the second bag if she can hold only 75 N with each arm is 0.409 m.

The car's initial speed was 15 m / s and the distance the car travels before it comes to a complete stop after the driver applie

pentagon [3]

Initial speed of the car (u) = 15 m/s

Final speed of the car (v) = 0 m/s (Car comes to a complete stop after driver applies the brake)

Distance travelled by the car before it comes to halt (s) = 63 m

By using equation of motion, we get:

$\bf \longrightarrow {v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2as \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow {0}^{2} = {15}^{2} + 2 \times a \times 63 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 225 + 126a \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 126a = - 225 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow a = - \dfrac{225}{126} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow a = - 1.78 \: m {s}^{ - 2}$
