Answer:

The torque about the origin is 2.0Nm\hat{i}-8.0Nm\hat{j}-12.0Nm\hat{k}

Explanation:

Torque \overrightarrow{\tau} is the cross  product between force \overrightarrow{F} and vector position \overrightarrow{r} respect a fixed point (in our case the origin):

\overrightarrow{\tau}=\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}

There are multiple ways to calculate a cross product but we're going to use most common method, finding the determinant of the matrix:

\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-\left[\begin{array}{ccc} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k}\\ F1_{x} & F1_{y} & F1_{z}\\ r_{x} & r_{y} & r_{z}\end{array}\right]

\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((F1_{y}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{y})\hat{i}-(F1_{x}r_{z}-F1_{z}r_{x})\hat{j}+(F1_{x}r_{y}-F1_{y}r_{x})\hat{k})

\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F} =-((0(2.0m)-0(-3.0m))\hat{i}-((4.0N)(2.0m)-(0)(0))\hat{j}+((4.0N)(-3.0m)-0(0))\hat{k})

\overrightarrow{r}\times\overrightarrow{F}=-2.0Nm\hat{i}+8.0Nm\hat{j}+12.0Nm\hat{k}=\overrightarrow{\tau}

A steel marble with 0.05 kg of mass starts from rest and rolls down a ramp. It travels 0.25 m in 1.2 seconds. Find the force act
emmasim [6.3K]

After finding acceleration, it is found that 0.02 N of force is acting on the marble

<h3>What is Force ?</h3>

Force can simply be defined as a pull or push. It is the product of mass and acceleration of the object. It is a vector quantity and it is measured in Newton.

Given that a steel marble with 0.05 kg of mass starts from rest and rolls down a ramp. It travels 0.25 m in 1.2 seconds.

The parameters to consider are;

  • m = 0.05 Kg
  • u = 0
  • s = 0.25 m
  • t = 1.2 s
  • a = ?
  • F = ?

Before we find the force acting on the marble, let us first find the acceleration by using the formula: s = ut + 1/2at²

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

0.25 = 0 + 1/2 × a × 1.2²

0.25 = 1/2 × a × 1.44

0.25 = 0.72a

a = 0.25/0.72

a = 0.35 m/s²

The force acting on the marble will be ;

F = ma

F = 0.05 × 0.35

F = 0.017

F = 0.02 N

Therefore, the force acting on the marble is 0.02 N

Which of the following BEST describes a deer?
ad-work [718]
If we go down the list,

It wouldn’t be Primary Producer because Deer don’t really produce anything

Can’t be Carnivore because deer don’t eat meat

Same with tertiary

They do eat plants. So it would have to be the last one
