The builders of the pyramids used a long ramp to lift 20000-kg (20.0-ton) blocks. If a block rose 0.840 m in height while travel

ing 20.0 m along the ramp surface, how much uphill force was needed to push it up the ramp at constant velocity

Given Information:  

Mass = m =  20000 kg

Height of ramp = h = 0.840 m

Length of ramp = L = 20 m

Required Information:  

Uphill Force = F = ?

Answer:

F = 8232 N

Explanation:

The force can be found using the equation

F = mgsinθ

Where m is the mass of block, g is the acceleration due to gravity

Since the ramp can be modeled as an inclined plane so it can formed into a triangle, recall that in right angle triangle sinθ is equal to opposite over hypotenuse. The opposite is the height and hypotenuse is the ramp surface.

sinθ = h/L = 0.840/20 = 0.042

F = 20000*9.8*0.042

F = 8232 N

Therefore, an uphill force of 8232 N would be needed.

Covert 60 mph to SI mks units
Flauer [41]

26.82m/s

Explanation:

Given:

   speed = 60mph

 problem: convert to m/s

To solve this problem, we have to find the right and appropriate conversion factor which equals to 1 to multiply this unit with:

   we are converting:

      miles to meters

      hours to seconds

    1.609km = 1mile

      1000m = 1km

  60s = 1 min

   60 min = 1hr

Now to convert from mph to m/s

  60 x    \frac{mi}{hr}  x  \frac{1.609km}{1mi}   x   \frac{1000m}{1km}  x \frac{1hr}{60min}  x \frac{1m}{60s}

  =  26.82m/s

Una niña está empujando un baúl. El PESO del baúl es de 230 N y el roce es de 50 N, la niña sólo logra ejercer una fuerza de 30
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Su padre necesita aplicar una fuerza de 20 newtons en la misma dirección que la fuerza aplicada por su hija.

Explanation:

Asúmase que el baúl se mueve en una superficie horizontal. La fuerza de rozamiento dada por el problema es la fuerza de rozamiento estático máximo, se requiere una fuerza externa antiparalela a la fuerza de rozamiento estático máximo para que el baúl se empiece a mover. La ecuación de equilibrio de fuerzas horizontales sobre el baúl es:

\Sigma F = P - f = 0

Donde:

P - Fuerza externa aplicada sobre el baúl, medida en newtons.

f - Fuerza de rozamiento estático máximo, medida en newtons.

Se despeja la fuerza externa:

P = f

Si f = 50\,N, entonces:

P = 50\,N

Si la niña solo logra ejercer una fuerza de 30 newtons, su padre necesita aplicar una fuerza de 20 newtons paralela a aquella fuerza.

If Tango measures the speed of sound at its landing site as 240 m/s, while Foxtrot measures speed of sound as 258 m/s at it's la
elena-s [515]

Tango landed in a site of lower temperature while Foxtrot landed in a site of higher temperature.

<h3>Effect of temperature on speed of sound</h3>

Speed of sound increases with increase in temperature because air molecules acquires more kinetic energy which increases their rate of vibration.

From the information, the speed of sound picked by Foxtrot (258 m/s) is greater than the speed of sound picked by Tango (240 m/s).

We can conclude that, Tango landed in a site of lower temperature while Foxtrot landed in a site of higher temperature.
