Answer:

While a body is said to be in motion if it changes its position with respect to immediate surroundings.

A body is said to be in uniform motion if it covers equal distances in equal interval of time.

A body is said to be in non-uniform motion if it covers unequal distances in equal interval of time or vice-versa

A sailcraft is stalled on a windless day. A fan is attached to the craft and blows air into the sail which bounces backward upon
mylen [45]

Answer:

Impulse = change in momentum w bounce

There are 2 impulses acting. Recoil of the fan going the negative direction and the impulse of the air bouncing off the sail. The greater impulse will bounce so the direction will be to the right moving the craft.

When an automobile moves with constant speed down a highway, most of the power developed by the engine is used to compensate for
sveta [45]

Answer:

F = -4567.40 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The power developed by the engine, P = 196 hp

1 hp = 746 W

196 hp = 146157 W

Speed of the car, v = 32 m/s

Let F is the total friction force acting on the car. The product of force and velocity is called the power developed by the engine. It is given by :

P=-F\times v

F=\dfrac{-P}{v}

F=\dfrac{-146157\ W}{32\ m/s}

F = -4567.40 N

So, the total frictional force acting on the car is 4567.40 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A steel tank of weight 600 lb is to be accelerated straight upward at a rate of 1.5 ft/sec2. Knowing the magnitude of the force
VikaD [51]

Answer:

a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°

b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb

Explanation:

Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction

from the diagram

we say

∑Fₓ = 0

Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0

525cosα - 368.06 = 0

cosα = 368.06/525

cosα = 0.701

α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)

α = 45.5°

Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction

∑Fₓ = ma

Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)

525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

F - 13.04 = 27.95

F = 27.95 + 13.04

F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb
