Answer: TENSION and WEIGHT

Explanation:

Force experienced by the spring is called TENSION while the WEIGHT is the gravitational pull on the body towards the earth surface. Therefore the forces acting on the cart are TENSION and WEIGHT(weight acts downwards (along negative y-axis) while the TENSION upward(along positive y-axis).

• How much work is<br>required to lift a 2kg<br>object 2m high?<br>

pychu [463]

Answer You need to consider that the gravity on earth is 9.8 m/s/s. This means any object you let go on the earths surface will gain 9.8 m/s of speed every second. You need to apply a force on the object in the opposite direction to avoid this acceleration. If you are pushing something up at a constant speed, you are just resisting earths acceleration. The more massive and object is, the greater force is needed to accelerate it. The equation is Force = mass*acceleration. So for a 2kg object in a 9.8 m/s/s gravity you need 2kg*9.8m/s/s = 19.6 Newtons to counteract gravity. Work or energy = force * distance. So to push with 19.6 N over a distance of 2 meters = 19.6 N*2 m = 39.2 Joules of energy. There is an equation that puts together those two equations I just used and it is E = mgh

The amount of Energy to lift an object is (mass) * (acceleration due to gravity) * (height)

:Hence, the Work done to life the mass of 2 kg to a height of 10 m is 196 J. Hope it helps❤️❤️❤️

Find the area under the standard normal curve to the right of z=0.49. round your answer to four decimal places, if necessary.

VikaD [51]

Left of z = 0.49 and right of z = 2.05, the area underneath the standard normal curve is equal to 0.7081.

<h3>What is the standard normal curve?</h3>

The horizontal axis is approached by the standard normal bend as it extends indefinitely both in directions without ever being touched by it. The center of the bell-shaped, z=0 standard normal curve. Between z=3 and z=3, almost the entire area underneath the standard normal curve is located.

<h3>Use of the standard normal curve:</h3>

Use the normal distribution's standard form to calculate probability. Since the standard normal distribution is indeed a probability distribution, the probability that a variable will take on a range of values is indicated by area of the curve between two points. 100% or 1 is the total area beneath the curve.

<h3>According to the given data:</h3>

the region to the left of the standard normal curve,

z=0.49

To the right of,

z = 2.05

So,

The area will be:

= P[z < 0.49] + P[ z >2.05]

= P[z < 0.49] + 1 - P[ z < 2.05]

= .6879 + 1 - .9798

= 0.7081

Left of z = 0.49 and right of z = 2.05, the area underneath the standard normal curve is equal to 0.7081.

if the displacement of a body is proportional to the square of time, state the nature of motion of the body

Liula [17]

Explanation:

If the displacement of an object is proportional to the square of the time taken then the body is moving with uniformly accelerated motion as it will follow Newton's second equation of motion for a particular initial velocity, which can be given by, s=ut+21at2.

hope this is helpful to you

Three packing crates of masses, M1 = 6 kg, M2 = 2 kg and M3 = 8 kg are connected by a light string of negligible mass that passe

never [62]

Answer:

39.81 N

Explanation:

I attached an image of the free body diagrams I drew of crate #1 and #2.

Using these diagram, we can set up a system of equations for the sum of forces in the x and y direction.

∑Fₓ = maₓ

∑Fᵧ = maᵧ

Let's start with the free body diagram for crate #2. Let's set the positive direction on top and the negative direction on the bottom. We can see that the forces acting on crate #2 are in the y-direction, so let's use Newton's 2nd Law to write this equation:

∑Fᵧ = maᵧ
T₁ - m₂g = m₂aᵧ

Note that the tension and acceleration are constant throughout the system since the string has a negligible mass. Therefore, we don't really need to write the subscripts under T and a, but I am doing so just so there is no confusion.

Let's solve for T in the equation...

T₁ = m₂aᵧ + m₂g
T₁ = m₂(a + g)

We'll come back to this equation later. Now let's go to the free body diagram for crate #1.

We want to solve for the forces in the x-direction now. Let's set the leftwards direction to be positive and the rightwards direction to be negative.

∑Fₓ = maₓ

F_f - F_g sinΘ = maₓ

The normal force is equal to the x-component of the force of gravity.

(F_n · μ_k) - m₁g sinΘ = m₁aₓ

(F_g cosΘ · μ_k) - m₁g sinΘ = m₁aₓ
[m₁g cos(30) · 0.28] - [m₁g sin(30)] = m₁aₓ
[(6)(9.8)cos(30) · 0.28] - [(6)(9.8)sin(30)] = (6)aₓ
[2.539595871] - [-58.0962595] = 6aₓ
60.63585537 = 6aₓ
aₓ = 10.1059759 m/s²

Now let's go back to this equation:

T₁ = m₂(a + g)

We have 3 known variables and we can solve for the tension force.

T = 2(10.1059759 + 9.8)
T = 2(19.9059759)
T = 39.8119518 N

The tension force is the same throughout the string, therefore, the tension in the string connecting M2 and M3 is 39.81 N.
