Answer:

2000 N

1600 N

Explanation:

Step 1:

It is given that the bear's weight is 2000 N and it slides down the tree with constant velocity. Since it is sliding with constant velocity the overall force on the bear is zero. The weight of the bear acting downward balances the upward force caused due to friction. Hence the upward force equals the weight 2000 N.

Step 2:

It is given that the bear slides down with an acceleration 2 m/sec sq

Weight of the bear = 2000 N

Mass of the bear = 2000/10 (taking g = 10 m/sec sq)=200 kg

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Hence net force acting downward = 200*2=400 N.

Net force = Weight of bear - Force acting upward on the bear

400 = 2000 - Force acting upward on the bear

Force on the bear acting upward = 2000 - 400 = 1600 N

The maximum height attained is 460 m.

<h3>What is the maximum height?</h3>

We know that the final velocity of a body is 0 m/s at the maximum height which is the greatest height that is attained by the body. We now use the formula;

v^2 = u^2 -2gh

Given that v = 0 m/s

u^2 = 2gh

h = u^2/2g

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

h = maximin height

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = (95)^2/2 * 9.8

h = 460 m

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

4611.58 ft/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 32.174 ft/s²

Equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 32.174\times 516+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=182.218\ ft/s$

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-182.218^2}{2\times 3.6}\\\Rightarrow a=-4611.58\ ft/s^2$

Magnitude of acceleration while stopping is 4611.58 ft/s²

On a graph of position vs. time, a negative slope means what about motion of the object?

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

A positive v time graph is a velocity graph. If the position/time is negative, then the slope of the line is negative. If the line is indicative of the velocity, which it is, that means that the velocity is negative (decreasing). The first choice is the one you want.

For an RLC circuit in the limit of very high frequency, what is the effective behavior of the capacitor and the inductor in the

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

In R-L-C circuit frequency is very high

Inductive Reactance for inductor is given by $X_L=2\pi f\cdot L$

Inductive Reactance for Capacitor is given by $X_c=\frac{1}{2\pi f\cdot C}$

as frequency becomes too high then $X_L$ will become very large and and $X_c$ will be approximately zero .

In other words inductor behave as a very high resistance and Capacitor behaves as very small resistance

Julietta and Jackson are playing miniature golf. Julietta's ball rolls into a long. Straight upward incline with a speed of 2.95

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The length of the incline is 3.504 meters.

Explanation:

Let suppose that Julietta's ball decelerates uniformly, then we determine the length of the incline is determined by the following equation of motion:

$\Delta s = v_{o}\cdot t +\frac{1}{2}\cdot a \cdot t^{2}$ (Eq. 1)
