A tire hanging from a tree is at rest. The force of gravity is pulling down on the tire. Another force, called tension, is pulli

ng up on the tire. Tension is the pulling force that is transferred along the length of a string or rope. If the force of tension is equal to the force of gravity, then what will happen to the tire?

the answer is that the tire will remain rest, An object that is at rest will stay at rest until an unbalanced force acts on it. The two forces acting on the tire are balanced because they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore, the tire will remain at rest.

Answers:

a) -2.54 m/s

b) -2351.25 J

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the <u>Conservation of Momentum principle</u>, which establishes that the initial momentum $p_{o}$ must be equal to the final momentum $p_{f}$ :

$p_{o}=p_{f}$ (1)

Where:

$p_{o}=m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}$ (2)

$p_{f}=(m_{1} + m_{2}) V_{f}$ (3)

$m_{1}=110 kg$ is the mass of the first football player

$V{o}=-7 m/s$ is the velocity of the first football player (to the south)

$m_{2}=75 kg$ is the mass of the second football player

$U_{o}=4 m/s$ is the velocity of the second football player (to the north)

$V_{f}$ is the final velocity of both football players

With this in mind, let's begin with the answers:

a) Velocity of the players just after the tackle

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

$m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}=(m_{1} + m_{2}) V_{f}$ (4)

Isolating $V_{f}$ :

$V_{f}=\frac{m_{1} V_{o} + m_{2} U_{o}}{m_{1} + m_{2}}$ (5)

$V_{f}=\frac{(110 kg)(-7 m/s) + (75 kg) (4 m/s)}{110 kg + 75 kg}$ (6)

$V_{f}=-2.54 m/s$ (7) The negative sign indicates the direction of the final velocity, to the south

b) Decrease in kinetic energy of the 110kg player

The change in Kinetic energy $\Delta K$ is defined as:

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m_{1}V_{f}^{2} - \frac{1}{2} m_{1}V_{o}^{2}$ (8)

Simplifying:

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} m_{1}(V_{f}^{2} - V_{o}^{2})$ (9)

$\Delta K=\frac{1}{2} 110 kg((-2.5 m/s)^{2} - (-7 m/s)^{2})$ (10)

Finally:

$\Delta K=-2351.25 J$ (10) Where the minus sign indicates the player's kinetic energy has decreased due to the perfectly inelastic collision

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

$a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t}$ which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator. For us:

$a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2}$ so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

An office window has dimensions 3.1 m by 2.1 m. As a result of the passage of a storm, the outside air pressure drops to 0.954 a

Virty [35]

Answer:

Net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Dimension of the office window.

Length of the window = $3.1$ m

Width of the window = $2.1$ m

Area of the window = $(3.1\times 2.1) = 6.51\ m^2$

Difference in air pressure = Inside pressure - Outside pressure

= $(1.0-0.954)$ atm = $0.046$ atm

Conversion of the pressure in its SI unit.

⇒ $1$ atm = $101325$ Pa

⇒ $0.046$ atm = $0.046\times 101325 =4660.95$ Pa

We have to find the net force.

We know,

⇒ Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ $Pressure=\frac{Force }{Area}$

⇒ $Force =Pressure\times Area$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $Force =4660.95\times 6.51$

⇒ $Force=30342.78$ Newton (N)

So,

The net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.
