Answer:
5817 Newtons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total mass of the cage + the miners = 700 Kg which is a downward force of 700g N.
The net downward force = 700g - T where T is the tension (force) in the cable. The g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m s-2.
We calculate the acceleration of the cage by using an equation of motion:
Distance = ut + 1/2 a t^2 where u = initial velocity , t = time and a = acceleration:
75 = 0(t) + 1/2 a (10^2)
50a = 75
a = 1.5 m s-2.
So using Newtons second law of motion
Force = mass * acceleration:
700*9.81 - T = 700 * 1.5
T = 700 * 9.81 - 700*1.5
= 5817 N.

<em>The thing You NEEDED to do</em>
<h3>
<u>Simplify</u> or <u>Evaluate</u> Your Answer</h3>
the answer should be if i did my math right is 0.25
So, I didn't quite understand your question clearly, but I'll try my best to answer it.
So, the first question is quite simple: Did the runner have a % decrease in his time or an increase.
Well, 7:45 is minor than 5:51. So, his time decreased.
2nd question:
The percent of change. Well, first things first 7:45 has 2 different units, wich are minutes and seconds, I suppose. Same goes for 5:51.
So let's put everything in seconds. multiply both the 7 and 5 for 60(for every minute has 60 seconds.)
That means:
7*60= 420+45 = 465.
5*60=300+51=351.
Now, let's do the math itself:
465 -> 100%
351 -> x%
Is equal to about 75,5%
How much did it decrease then?
(75,5-100)%= 24,5%, approximately
