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

If two cars A and B are moving with velocity 60 km/hr and 80 km/hr
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

VAB = 20km/hr

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Velocity of car A, VA = 60km/hr

Velocity of car B, VB = 80km/hr

To find the relative velocity of B w.r.t A, VAB;

Since the two cars are moving in the same direction, we have;

VAB = VB - VA

Substituting into the equation, we have;

VAB = 80 - 60

<em>VAB = 20km/hr</em>

Therefore, the relative velocity of car B with respect to car A is 20 kilometers per hour.

A geologist sees a fault along which blocks of rock in the footwall have moved higher relative to blocks of rock in the hanging
Luda [366]

Answer: Normal fault

Explanation:

The type of fault that is explained above is a normal fault. We should note that normal faults typically takes place in a divergent boundary in a scenario where the crusts may have been pulled apart.

Since the crust is pulled apart in this case, it leads to the downward movement of the hanging wall which leads to the football being above the hanging wall.

2. A 55 kg woman has a momentum of 200 kg m/s. What is her velocity?
NeTakaya

Answer:

\boxed {\tt 3.63636364 \ m/s}

Explanation:

Velocity can be found using the following formula:

v=\frac{p}{m}

where p is the momentum and m is the mass.

The woman has a mass of 55 kilograms and a momentum of 200 kilogram meters per second.

p= 200 \ kgm/s\\m=55 \ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{200 \ kg m/s}{55 \ kg}

Divide. Note that the kilograms, or kg, will cancel each other out.

v=\frac{200 \ m/s}{55}

v= 3.63636364 \ m/s

The woman's velocity is 3.63636364 meters per second.
