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

What do biologist geologist have in common how are they different
Delicious77 [7]
The prefix for Bio is life so a biologist studies life of living organisms
The prefix for Geo is earth so it would be the study of earth.
What is in common would be animals and plants
what is different is an Geologist studies only earth Biologist studies everything living. I hope this was helpful and I didn't confuse you.

A man of mass 80.0 kg stands on a platform of mass 40.0 kg. He pulls on a rope that is fastened to the platform and runs over a
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:F=648 N

Explanation:

Given

mass of man m_1=80 kg

mass of Platform m_2=40 kg

acceleration of system a=1 m/s^2

Let F be the force with which man pulls the rope which will also create a tension of F in rope

From Diagram

2F-(m_1+m_2)g=(m_1+m_2)a

2F=(m_1+m_2)(g+a)

F=\frac{(m_1+m_2)(g+a)}{2}

F=\frac{(80+40)(9.8+1)}{2}

F=\frac{1296}{2}

F=648 N

When sound waves strike the eardrum, this membrane vibrates with the same frequency as the sound. The highest pitch that typical
kherson [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time period, T = 50 μs = 50 x 10^-6 s

Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations or vibrations completed in one second.

The reciprocal of time period is called frequency.

f = 1 / T

f = 1 / (50 x 10^-6)

f = 20,000 Hz

Angular frequency, ω = 2 x π x f

ω = 2 x 3.14 x 20,000

ω = 125600 rad/s

Who created the theory of general relativity?:

The answer would be: Albert Einstein.

Albert Einstein developed the general relativity theory (gravitation). 

The year he developed the general relativity theory or (GR) was back in 1907 and 1915. Then many other contributions after 1915.

The barometer of a mountain hiker reads 980 mbars at the beginning of a hiking trip and 790 mbars at the end. Neglecting the eff
sashaice [31]

Complete Question

The barometer of a mountain hiker reads 980 mbars at the beginning of a hiking trip and 790 mbars at the end. Neglecting the effect of altitude on local gravitational acceleration, determine the vertical distance climbed. Assume an average air density of 1.20kg/m^2

Answer:

h=1614m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial Pressure P_1=980mbar=>98000Pa

Final Pressure P_2=790mbar=>79000Pa

Density \rho=1.20kg/m^2

Generally the equation for Height climbed is mathematically given by

h=\frac{P_1-P_2}{\rho*g}

h=\frac{P_1-P_2}{1.20*9.81}

h=1614m
