A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

44.0 N without breaking. What is the weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in (a) at constant speed and (b) with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.37 m/s2?

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg

olga_2 [115]

Answer: f = - 0.50 m, negative (diverging) lens

Explanation: D-value (diopter ) means 1/f, unit is 1/m. Thus -2.0D

Means f = ( 1/ -2.0 ) m = -0.50 m

Amanda [17]

Answer:

30m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration=Final Velocity-Initial Velocity/Time

10m/s^2= Final Velocity-0m/s/3

30m/s^2= Final Velocity

Final Velocity=30m/s^2
