Answer:
40m (40m east)
Explanation:
The fist move is 70m east, and east is the positive direction so the truck initially is at +70m.
The second move is 120m to the west, since east is the positive direction, west must be the negative direction, this means the truck now is at:
The third move is 90m to the east, again, this is the positive direction, so the new position is:
The truck is at + 40m, so it ended up 40m away from its initial position and this is the resultant dispacement.
The force applied to lift the crate is 171 N
Explanation:
The lever works on the principle of equilibrium of moments, so we can write:
where
is the force in input
is the arm of the input force
is the output force
is the arm of the output force
For the lever in this problem, we have:
(force applied)
Solving the equation for , we find the force applied to lift the crate:
