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

The volume of a cylindrical tin can with a top and a bottom is to be 16π cubic inches. If a minimum amount of tin is to be used
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

h = 4 in

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

volume of tin= 16 \pi

we know that

volume of cylinder is v = \pi r^2  h

so,

16 \pi = \pi r^2 h

16 = r^2 h

r = \sqrt{\frac{16}{h}}

construct formula for surface area

S = 2\pi r^2 +  2\pi rh

S = \frac{2v}{h} + 2 \sqrt{v \pi h}

minimize the function wrt  h

S' = \frac{2v}{h^2} + \sqrt{\frac{v \pi}{h} =  0

solving for h we have

h = [\frac{4 v}{\pi}]^{1/3}

we kow v = 16 \pi   so

h = 4 in

You are working as a summer intern for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and are assigned to some initial work
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

1) Pressure acting on the plug = Patm + P

Pressure = Patm + rho*g*h (Here h = D2)

Pressure = 101325 + 1000*9.8*7

Pressure = 169925 Pa

so, Force = PA

Force = 169925*pi*0.0152

Force = 120.1 N

In one experiment, the students allow the block to oscillate after stretching the spring a distance A. If the potential energy s
atroni [7]

Answer:

    K = m g (A - A2)

Explanation:

In a block spring system the total energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, for maximum elongation all the energy is potential

         Em = U₀ = m g A

For when the system is at an ele

Elongation A2 less than A, energy has two parts

        Em = K + U₂

       K = Em –U₂

We substitute

     K = m g A - m gA2

    K = m g (A - A2)
