The pressure exerted by the block on the table is given by:

p=\frac{W}{A}

where W is the weight of the box, and A is the bottom surface area of the box.

The weight of the box is: W=mg=(7.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=73.6 N

Substituting into the first equation, we find the pressure:

p=\frac{W}{A}=\frac{73.6 N}{0.6 m^2}=122.7 Pa

A ship is travelling due east at 30 km/hr and a boy runs across the deck
dsp73

Answer:

Vr = 20 [km/h]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we have to add the relative velocities. We must remember that velocity is a vector, therefore it has magnitude and direction. We will take the sea as the reference measurement level.

Let's take the direction of the ship as positive. Therefore the boy moves in the opposite direction (Negative) to the reference level (the sea).

V_{r}=30-10\\V_{r}=20 [km/h]

1) See three Kepler laws below

2a) Acceleration is 2.2 m/s^2

2b) Tension in the string: 27.4 N

3a) Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, potential energy is the energy due to the position

3b) The kinetic energy of the object is 2.25 J

Explanation:

1)

There are three Kepler's law of planetary motion:

  1. 1st law: the planets orbit the sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun located at one of the 2 focii
  2. 2nd law: a segment connecting the Sun with each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. A direct consequence of this is that, when a planet is further from the sun, it travels slower, and when it is closer to the sun, it travels faster
  3. 3rd law: the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. Mathematically, T^2 \propto r^3, where T is the period of revolution and r is the semi-major axis of the orbit

2a)

To solve the problem, we have to write the equation of motions for each block along the direction parallel to the incline.

For the block on the right, we have:

M g sin \theta - T = Ma (1)

where

Mg sin \theta is the component of the weight of the block parallel to the incline, with

M = 8.0 kg (mass of the block)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

\theta=35^{\circ}

T = tension in the string

a = acceleration of the block

For the block on the left, we have similarly

T-mg sin \theta = ma (2)

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of the block)

\theta=35^{\circ}

From (2) we get

T=mg sin \theta + ma

Substituting into (1),

M g sin \theta - mg sin \theta - ma = Ma

Solving for a,

a=\frac{M-m}{M+m}g sin \theta=\frac{8.0-3.5}{8.0+3.5}(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ})=2.2 m/s^2

2b)

The tension in the string can be calculated using the equation

T=mg sin \theta + ma

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of lighter block)

g=9.8 m/s^2

\theta=35^{\circ}

a=2.2 m/s^2 (acceleration found in part 2)

Substituting,

T=(3.5)(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ}) +(3.5)(2.2)=27.4 N

3a)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy due to its motion. It is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field. For an object near the Earth's surface, it is given by

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

3b)

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the object in this problem,

m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

v = 3 m/s

Substituting, we find its kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}(0.5)(3)^2=2.25 J

if you use the compound pulley, you will need to pull twice the distance but with less force. the force you need is equal to one
algol13

Answer:

F= 25/2 = 12.5N

Explanation:

When you use a compound pulley the force required depends on the mechanical advantage of the compound pulley. This is known as rate of loss of distance or the ratio of the force to the load.

M.A = Effort distance /Load distance. OR M.A = Load/Effort
