Answer:
570 N
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram on the rider. There are three forces: tension force 15° below the horizontal, drag force 30° above the horizontal, and weight downwards.
The rider is moving at constant speed, so acceleration is 0.
Sum of the forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
F cos 30° - T cos 15° = 0
F = T cos 15° / cos 30°
Sum of the forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
F sin 30° - W - T sin 15° = 0
W = F sin 30° - T sin 15°
Substituting:
W = (T cos 15° / cos 30°) sin 30° - T sin 15°
W = T cos 15° tan 30° - T sin 15°
W = T (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)
Given T = 1900 N:
W = 1900 (cos 15° tan 30° - sin 15°)
W = 570 N
The rider weighs 570 N (which is about the same as 130 lb).
Answer:
a) 2.41 km
b) 38.8°
Questions c and d are illegible.
Explanation:
We can express the displacements as vectors with origin on the point he started (0, 0).
When he traveled south he moved to (-3, 0).
When he moved east he moved to (-3, x)
The magnitude of the total displacement is found with Pythagoras theorem:
d^2 = dx^2 + dy^2
Rearranging:
dy^2 = d^2 - dx^2
The angle of the displacement vector is:
cos(a) = dx/d
a = arccos(dx/d)
a = arccos(3/3.85) = 38.8°
Answer:
109.32 N/m
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of the hung object, m = 8 kg
Period of oscillation of object, T = 1.7 s
Force constant, k = ?
Recall that the period of oscillation of a Simple Harmonic Motion is given as
T = 2π √(m/k), where
T = period of oscillation
m = mass of object and
k = force constant if the spring
Since we are looking for the force constant, if we make "k" the subject of the formula, we have
k = 4π²m / T², now we go ahead to substitute our given values from the question
k = (4 * π² * 8) / 1.7²
k = 315.91 / 2.89
k = 109.32 N/m
Therefore, the force constant of the spring is 109.32 N/m
