Answer:

Force = 186 N

Explanation:

Torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force. It can be easely calculated using the formula :

Torque = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}

Where \vec{r} is a vector that from the origin of the coordinate system to the point at which the force is applied (the position vector), \vec{F} is the applied force.

The easiest way of computing the force is by setting the origin of the coordinate system to the lowest point of the torque wrench.  By doing this we have that r (the magnitud of the position vector) is 35cm.

Before computing the force we need to set all our values to the international system of units (SI). The torque is already in SI. The one missing is the length of the torque wrench (it is in centimeters and we need it in meters). So :

35cm * \dfrac{1m}{100cm} = 0.35m

Now using the torque formula:

Torque = \vec{r} \times \vec{F}

Torque = rFsin(\theta)}

Where \theta is the smaller angle between the force and the position vector. Because the force is applied perpendiculary to the position vector  \theta = 90°, thus :

Torque = rFsin(\theta)}

65 N m = (0.35m)Fsin(90°)}

F = \dfrac{65N m} {(0.35m)sin(90°)}

F = \dfrac{65N m} {(0.35m)sin(90°)}

F = \dfrac{1300} {7}N

so the force is approximately 186 N.

A wagon has a mass of 100 grams and an
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Net force on the wagon is 200 N

Explanation:

As we know by Newton's II law that net force on the system of mass is given as product of mass and acceleration

Here we know that

mass = 100 kg

a = 2 m/s/s

now we have

F = ma

F = (100)(2)

F = 200 N

A bathtub contains 65 gallons of water and the total weight of the tub and water is approximately 931.925 pounds. You pull the p
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Q = 8,345 * v

Explanation:

So, we are looking for an expression of the amount of water that has been drained from the tub. The expression is in terms of v that represent the number of gallons of water drained since the plug was pulled. Since we are interested in the pounds of water that has been drained from the tub we need to take into account that for every gallon of water drained, 8.345 pounds have left the tub. Therefore, the expression for the weight of water Q that has been drained from the tub in terms of v is simply :

Q = 8,345 * v

Where v is the amount of gallons that has been drained from the tub.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

v = 20.31 m/s

Explanation:

p = mv -> v = p/m = 32,500 kg*m/s / 1,600 kg = 20.31 m/s

Convert 7.93 lbs into grams. Hint: 1 kg = 2.2 lbs
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

7.93 lbs is equal to 3596.987 grams.

Explanation:

The weight in grams is equal to the pounds multiplied by 453.59237.

So... you would multiply 7.93 by 453.59237.

7.93 x 453.59237 = 3596.987

Hope that helped!
