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

M <span>represent mass in kg
</span><span>v represents speed in m/s
</span><span>r represents radius in m

Now, just substitute these into the formula:
</span>F =  \frac{m* v^{2} }{r} =\frac{kg* ( \frac{m}{s} )^{2} }{m} =\frac{kg* \frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}} }{m} = \frac{kg*m^{2}}{s^{2}*m } =\frac{kg*m}{s^{2} }<span>

What is the mass of a rock lifted 2 meters off the ground that has 196 J of potential energy?
eimsori [14]

Answer:

10kg

Explanation:

Let PE=potential energy

PE=196J

g(gravitational force)=9.8m/s^2

h(change in height)=2m

m=?

PE=m*g*(change in h)

196=m*9.8*2

m=10kg

Which of the following is a process that occurs at divergent boundaries?
PIT_PIT [208]
The appropriate answer is 4. The formation of Mid-Ocean ridges. There are two types of divergent margins: continental separation and oceanic floor spreading. Where the sea floor separates magma upwells and new oceanic crust is formed. Mid ocean ridges are home to hydrothermal vents. These support a unique ecosystem of marine organisms. The Mid- Atlantic Ridge where the African and Eurasian plates separate from the North and South American plates.
