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

A pronghorn, the fastest North American animal, is capable of running for at 18 m/s (40 mph) for 10 minutes. The time limit isn’
Otrada [13]

Explanation:

The increase in the body temperature of pronghorn, the fastest North American animal, results from the chemical energy of the pronghorn converting into kinetic energy with efficiency less than 100%. The remaining energy is converted into heat energy. Thus, raising the temperature of pronghorn.

Due to the chemical energy it gains both kinetic and heat energy.

To the nearest square foot, how many square feet are there in an area of 4.4 square meters?
vichka [17]

Answer:

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

Explanation:

We have

    1 meter = 3.28084 foot

    1 square meter = 3.28084 x 3.28084 square foot = 10.76 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 4.4 x 10.76 = 47.36 square foot = 47 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

for the primitive yo-yo in fig, to find the downward acceleration of the cylinder and the tension in the string. you can take th
mixas84 [53]

The downward acceleration of the solid cylinder at the given tension in the string is determined as 2Tr/MR.

<h3>Downward acceleration of the cylinder</h3>

The downward acceleration of the solid cylinder is determined from the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

Iα = Tr

where;

  • I is moment of inertia of the solid cylinder
  • α is angular acceleration of the cylinder
  • T is tension in the string
  • r is length of the string

α = Tr/I

\frac{a}{R} = \frac{Tr}{I} \\\\\frac{a}{R} = \frac{Tr}{\frac{1}{2} MR^2}\\\\\frac{a}{R} =\frac{2Tr}{MR^2} \\\\a = \frac{2Tr}{MR}

where;

  • a is the downward acceleration of the solid cylinder
  • R is radius of the cylinder

Thus, the downward acceleration of the solid cylinder at the given tension in the string is determined as 2Tr/MR.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

1960.32306 kg/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of water = 1 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height from which the water will fall

Potential Energy

PE=mgh\\\Rightarrow PE=1\times 9.81\times 52\\\Rightarrow PE=510.12\ J

One megawatts of power is required

So, flow rate

\dotm=\frac{P}{PE}\\\Rightarrow \dotm=\frac{1\times 10^6}{510.12}\\\Rightarrow \dotm=1960.32306\ kg/s

1960.32306 kg/s is required to produce a megawatt of power
