Q 16: Answer is D, because there is little to no friction in space, so ball will move at a constant velocity.
Answer:
36N
Explanation:
First draw a diagram so you can see which forces act in which direction.
Then define which is your positive direction. I chose the direction of accelleration (downward) to be positive. This means that the weight of the object is also acting in the positive direction but Tension is acting in the negative direction.
If the elevator which contains the object within is accellerating at 2.6 ms^-2 then the object and string system is also accellerating at the same rate.
F = ma where F is the resultant force.
Resultant for is Weight + Tension but tension is in the negative direction so
F = mg -T
F = 5g - T
F = ma so F = 5 x 2.6
13 = 5g-T
T = 5g - 13
T = 36N
(I've taken g = 9.8ms^-2 but if this is for a physics class I'd take it to be 9.81ms^-2)
Answer:
well im on the test too trying to help but all i know is it passes through and changes the color to red.
Explanation:im sorry im stoopid
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The torque exerted by a force is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the pivot
is the angle between the directions of F and d
We see that the magnitude of the torque depends on 3 factors. In this problem, we have 2 forces of equal magnitude (so, equal F). Moreover, one of the forces (let's call it force 1) acts farther from the pivot than force 2, so we have
However, this does not mean that force 1 produces a greater torque. In fact, it also depends on the angle at which the force is applied. For instance, if the first force is applied parallel to d, then we have
and the torque produced by this force would be zero.
So, the statement is false.
