Answer:

233.43 N

Explanation:

Force: This is the product of mass and acceleration of a body.

The formula for force is given as,

F = ma .............. Equation 1

Where F = Net force on the bobsled, m = mass of the bobsled, a = acceleration of the bobsled

We can look for a using the equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as.............. Equation 2

Where V = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

making a the subject of the equation,

a = (v²-u²)/2s................... Equation 3

Given: v = 7.1 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( from rest), s = 8.1 m.

Substitute into equation 3

a = (7.1²-0²)/(2×8.1)

a = 50.41/16.2

a = 3.1 m/s²

Also given: m = 75.3 kg

Substitute into equation 1

F = 75.3×3.1

F = 233.43 N

Hence the net force on the bobsled = 233.43 N

The dimensions of a cylinder are changing, but the height is always equal to the diameter of the base of the cylinder. If the he
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

dV/dt  = 9 cubic inches per second

Explanation:

Let the height of the cylinder is h

Diameter of cylinder = height of the cylinder = h

Radius of cylinder, r = h/2

dh/dt = 3 inches /s

Volume of cylinder is given by

V = \pi r^{2}h

put r = h/2 so,

V = \pi \frac{h^{3}}{4}

Differentiate both sides with respect to t.

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3h^{2}}{4}\times \frac{dh}{dt}

Substitute the values, h = 2 inches, dh/dt = 3 inches / s

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3\times 2\times 2}{4}\times 3

dV/dt  = 9 cubic inches per second

Thus, the volume of cylinder increases by the rate of 9 cubic inches per second.

irinina [24]

Answer:

h=10m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Area a=70 x 10^{-6}

Force F=7N

Generally the equation for Pressure is mathematically given by

Pressure = Force/Area

P=\frac{F}{A}

P=\frac{ 7}{(70 * 10^{-6})}

P= 1*10^{5} Pa

Generally the equation for Pressure is also mathematically given by

P=hpg

Therefore

h=\frac{P}{hg}

h=\frac{10000}{1000*9.8}

h=10m
