Answer:

D) 200 Lb

Explanation:

As we know that the piano is balanced by six ropes connected to it

by the force balance we can say that tension force of all ropes will combined to balance the weight of the object

So here we can say by force equation we will have

6T = mg

so we will have

T = \frac{mg}{6}

here we know that

mg = 1200 lb

so we will have

T = \frac{1200}{6} = 200 lb

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The value is  KE_b =0.710 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass  of the bullet is m_b  = 5.00 \ g  = 0.005 \  kg

  The mass  of the wood is  m_w =  900 \  g  =  0.90\  kg

   The height attained by the combined mass is  h =  8.0 \ cm  =  0.08 \ m

Generally according to the law of energy conservation    

    KE _b  =  PE_c

Here KE_b is the kinetic energy of the bullet before collision.

and PE_c is the  potential  energy of the combined mass of bullet and wood at the height h which is mathematically represented as

      PE_m  =  [m_b  + m_w] *  g *  h

So

   KE_b =PE_c   = [0.005  + 0.90] * 9.8 *0.08

=> KE_b =0.710 \ J

The density of a hippo is approximately 1030kg/m^3,so it sinks to the bottom of the freshwater lakes and rivers. A 1500kg hippo
hram777 [196]

Answer:

14,700 N

Explanation:

The hyppo is standing completely submerged on the bottom of the lake. Since it is still, it means that the net force acting on it is zero: so, the weight of the hyppo (W), pushing downward, is balanced by the upward normal force, N:

W-N=0 (1)

the weight of the hyppo is

W=mg=(1500 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=14,700 N

where m is the hyppo's mass and g is the gravitational acceleration; therefore, solving eq.(1) for N, we find

N=W=14,700 N

Can someone awnser this
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The force of gravity exerts a downward force. The floor exerts an upward force. Since these two forces are of equal magnitude and in opposite directions, they balance each other.
