A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "42.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

42.0 N without breaking. What is the weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in (a) at constant speed and (b) with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s2?

Answer:

(a) 42 N

(b)36.7 N

Explanation:

Nomenclature

F= force test line (N)

W : fish weight  (N)

Problem development

(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed

We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:

∑Fy =0

F-W= 0

42N -W =0  

W = 42N

(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²

We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:

 m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

∑Fy =m*a

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a

42-W=  ( W/9.8 )*1.41

42= W+0.1439W

42=1.1439W

W= 42/1.1439

W= 36.7  N

Arte-miy333 [17]
The projectile (ball) reaches an instantaneous vertical speed (Vy) of zero at maximum height.

so, V(max height) = ¬Г(Vx)^2+(Vy)^2
in this case V(max height) = Vx, where Vy=0

The maximum height, Yf, can be solved using Vfy^2=Viy^2 + 2gy. At maximum height Vfy=0.

A 10.0 L tank contains 0.329 kg of helium at 28.0 ∘C. The molar mass of helium is 4.00 g/mol . Part A How many moles of helium a
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

82.25 moles of He

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume (V) = 10 L

Mass of He = 0.329 Kg

Temperature (T) = 28.0 °C

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Next, we shall convert 0.329 Kg of He to g. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Kg = 1000 g

Therefore,

0.329 Kg = 0.329 Kg × 1000 g / 1 Kg

0.329 Kg = 329 g

Thus, 0.329 Kg is equivalent to 329 g.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of He in the tank. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Mass of He = 329 g

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of He = 329 / 4

Mole of He = 82.25 moles

Therefore, there are 82.25 moles of He in the tank.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

s = vcos(x)t

50 = 25cos(45)t

cos(45)t = 2

t = 2/cos(45) = 2sqrt(2)

h = vsin(x)t + gt^2/2

h = 25sin(45)*2sqrt(2) - 4.9*8

h = 10.8 metres
