A stuntman is being pulled along a rough road at a constant velocity by a cable attached to a moving truck. The cable is paralle

l to the ground. The mass of the stuntman is 107 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and him is 0.682. Find the tension in the cable.

Answer:

715 N

Explanation:

Since the system is moving at a constant velocity, the net force must be 0. The tension on the road is equal and opposite direction with the kinetic friction force created by the road and the stuntman.

Let g = 9.8 m/s2

Gravity and equalized normal force is:

N = P = mg = 107*9.8 = 1048.6 N

Kinetic friction force and equalized tension force on the rope is

T = F_{\mu} = N\mu = 1048.6 * 0.682 = 715.1452 N

PLEASE HELP!!<br> What is osteoporosis? What are the symptoms and treatments?
Korvikt [17]

Explanation:

Osteopetrosis is a condition in which bones become weak and brittle. It causes the body to constantly absorb and replace bone tissue. With osteoporosis, new bone creation doesn't keep up with old bone removal.

While some don't experience symptoms, common symptoms can include bone fracture and a decrease in height.

Most treatments include supplements and diet modifications.

After a while, the car started to go around a long bend, still maintaining its constant speed of 55 miles per hour. Is there a n
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

4) True. The change of direction needs an unbalanced force

Explanation:

Let us propose the resolution of the problem using Newton's second law.

    F = m a

As the car is spinning the acceleration is centripetal

    a = v2.r

   

    F = m v2 / r

We can see that as the velocity of a vector even if its module does not change, the change of direction requires an external force.

Now we can analyze the statement if they are true or false

1) and 3) False, even when the speed changes, the direction changes

2) False with the speed change can be determined

4) True. The change of direction needs an unbalanced force

5) False are different things. the direction is where it is going and the speed is the magnitude of the vector

A swan on a lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. If the swan must reach a velocity of 6.40
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

53.895 m.

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2as .............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity of the swan, u = initial velocity of the swan, a = acceleration of the swan, s = distance covered by the swan.

make s the subject of the equation,

s = (v² - u²)/2a----------- Equation 2

Given: v = 6.4 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( from rest)  a = 0.380 m/s².

Substitute into equation 2

s = (6.4²-0²)/(2×0.380)

s = 40.96/0.76

s = 53.895 m.

Hence the swan will travel 53.895 m before becoming airborne.
