If your brakes fail, look for something to rub against, try to pick something that will not give way.True or False?

Physics
1 answer:
Yanka [14]3 years ago

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False

If brakes fail then we should not run against any object or wall to slow down the speed instead we should use friction forces slow down the car and shift gear to neutral to cease any acceleration.

By driving zig-zag motion friction force on the tires may stop the car after some distance.

Do not try to shut off the engine as it will lock the steering mechanism any prove fatal.

A 220 kg crate hangs from the end of a rope of length L = 14.0 m. You push horizontally on the crate with a varying force F to m
kifflom [539]

<u>Answer</u>:

(a) magnitude of F = 797 N

(b)the total work done  W = 0

(c)work done by the gravitational force =  -1.55 kJ

(d)the work done by the pull  = 0

(e) work your force F does on the crate = 1.55 kJ

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Mass of the crate, m =  220 kg

Length of the rope, L = 14.0m

Distance, d =  4.00m

<u>(a) What is the magnitude of F when the crate is in this final position</u>

Let us first determine vertical angle as follows

=>Sin \theta = \frac{d }{L}

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{d}{L} =

Now substituting thje values

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{4}{12} =

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{1}{3}

=> \theta = Sin^{-1}(0.333)

=> \theta = 19.5^{\circ}

Now the tension in the string resolve into components

The vertical component supports the weight

=>Tcos\theta = mg

=>T = \frac{mg}{cos\theta}

=>T = \frac{230 \times 9.8 }{cos(19.5)}

=>T = \frac{2254 }{cos(19.5)}

=>T = \frac{2254 }{0.9426}

=>T =2391N

Therefore the horizontal force

F = TSin(19.5)

F = 797 N

b) The total work done on it

As there is no change in Kinetic energy

The total work done W = 0

<u>c) The work done by the gravitational force on the crate</u>

The work done by gravity

Wg = Fs.d = - mgh

Wg = - mgL ( 1 - Cosθ )

Substituting the values                                                            

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - cos(19.5) )

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - 0.9426) )

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 (0.0574)

= -230 \times 9.8\times 0.6888

=  -230 \times 6.750

= -1552.55 J

The work done by gravity = -1.55 kJ

<u>d) the work done by the pull on the crate from the rope</u>

Since the pull  is perpendicular to the direction of motion,

The work done = 0

e)Find the work your force F does on the crate.

Work done by the Force on the crate

WF = - Wg  

WF = -(-1.55)

WF = 1.55 kJ

<u>(f) Why is the work of your force not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)</u>

Here the work done by force is not equal to F*d  

and it is equal to product of the cos angle and F*d

So, it is not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)

A tow truck drags a stalled car along a road. The chain makes an angle of 30° with the road and the tension in the chain is 1400
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The work is done by the truck pulling the car 1 km is 1,212,436 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force that is applied on a body to move it from one point to another. When a force is applied, an energy transfer occurs. Then it can be said that work is energy in motion.

So work is one of the forms of energy transmission between bodies. To perform a job, you must exert a force on a body and it moves.

In the International System of Units, work is measured in Joule. A Joule is the work that a constant force of 1 Newton does on a body that moves 1 meter in the same direction and direction as the force. Then, Joule is equivalent to Newton per meter.

The work is equal to the product of the force by the distance and by the cosine of the angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction that travels the point or the object that moves:

Work= Force*Distante* cos (θ)

In this case:

  • Force= 1,400 N= 1,400 kg*\frac{m}{s^{2} }
  • Distance= 1 km= 1,000 m
  • θ= Angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction= 30°

Replacing:

Work= 1,400 N* 1,000 m* cos (30°)

Work= 1,212,435. 565 Joule≅ 1,212,436 J

<u><em> The work is done by the truck pulling the car 1 km is 1,212,436 J</em></u>

The tropic of cancer is to the tropic of capricorn as the arctic circle is to the
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Antarctic Circle

Explanation:

The Tropic of Cancer, which is also referred to as the Northern Tropic, is the most northerly circle of latitude on Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead. This occurs on the June solstice, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun to its maximum extent.

Tropic of Capricorn Is it Southern Hemisphere counterpart, marking the most southerly position at which the Sun can be directly overhead.
