The block brake consists of a pin-connected lever and friction block at B. The coefficient of static friction between the wheel

and the lever is μs = 0.3, and a torque of 5 N⋅m is applied to the wheel. Determine if the brake can hold the wheel stationary when the force applied to the lever is (a) P = 30 N, (b) P = 70 N.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Anika [276]3 years ago

Answer:

a) Insufficient

b) Sufficient

Explanation:

To hold lever:

Sum of moments about point O center of wheel = 0

Fb * 0.15 - 5 =0

Fb = 33.33N

Contact force Nb:

Nb = (Fb/u) = (33.333 / 0.3) = 111.1 N

Sum of moments about point A lever pin joint = 0

Preq * 0.6 - 111.1*0.2 - 33.33*0.05 = 0

Preq = 39.8 N

part a

P = 30N < Preq = 39.8N

Hence, insufficient

part b

P = 70N > Preq = 39.8N

Hence, sufficient

Why do the lighter isotopes disappear first from the atmosphere? Where do those isotopes go?
denpristay [2]

Lighter molecules move fast and escape from the upper atmosphere relatively quickly.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the lighter isotopes.

<h3>What are lighter isotopes?</h3>
  • Lighter molecules are mobile and soon leave the higher atmosphere.
  • A particular element's stable isotopes have slightly different atomic masses and quantum mechanical energies.
  • The lighter isotope of an element's chemical bonds are more easily broken than the heavier isotope's.
  • As a result, the light isotope typically benefits from chemical reactions.

Thus, we can conclude that, lighter molecules move fast and escape from the upper atmosphere relatively quickly.

How do mountain glaciers and continental glaciers differ in terms of dimensions, thickness and patterns of movement?
tester [92]
Question:
How do mountain glaciers and continental glaciers differ in terms of dimensions, thickness and patterns of movement?

Answer:
<span>
Continental glaciers are thicker, much more expansive sheets. Mountain glaciers flow downhill as a result of gravity acting on the mass of ice. Continental glaciers move in response to pressure from the weight of material in their thick midsections.

An 800-N billboard worker stands on a 4.0-m scaffold weighing 500 N and supported by vertical ropes at each end. How far would t
Lynna [10]

Answer:

2.5 m

Explanation:

Weight of billboard worker = 800 N

Number of ropes = 2

Length of scaffold = 4 m

Weight of scaffold = 500 N

Tension in rope = 550 N

The sum of the torques will be

-800(4-x)-500\times 2+550\times 4=0\\\Rightarrow -800(4-x)=500\times 2-550\times 4\\\Rightarrow -800(4-x)=-1200\\\Rightarrow -x=\dfrac{1200}{800}-4\\\Rightarrow -x=-2.5\\\Rightarrow x=2.5\ m

The position of the person will be 2.5 m

if quasars often resemble little blue stars, what was it about them that so surprised astronomers when they were dis­covered?
Anna11 [10]

Quasar is famous for being an intergalactic object which is billions of years away from the earth yet can still be seen, unlike the other star body, unlike giant galaxies.

Hence, the fact that quasars can be detected from distances where even the biggest and most luminous galaxies cannot be seen means that "they must be intrinsically far more luminous than the brightest galaxies."

This condition, including other related evidence gotten in recent years concerning our galaxy, has shown that quasars are probably the central nuclei of very distant, very active galaxies.

The surprising thing was that quasars and active galaxies have a lot of mass in the center of the very small volume of the space.

Therefore, the surprising thing about quasars was that due to this mass and energy they are 100 times more luminous than Milky Way which means they have high recession velocity and a very large amount of red-shifting.
