Answer:
T = 2010 N
Explanation:
m = mass of the uniform beam = 150 kg
Force of gravity acting on the beam at its center is given as
W = mg
W = 150 x 9.8
W = 1470 N
T = Tension force in the wire
θ = angle made by the wire with the horizontal = 47° deg
L = length of the beam
From the figure,
AC = L
BC = L/2
From the figure, using equilibrium of torque about point C
T (AC) Sin47 = W (BC)
T L Sin47 = W (L/2)
T Sin47 = W/2
T Sin47 = 1470
T = 2010 N
Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions
As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.
So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors
so we can say
here given that
now we will plug in all data in the above equation
so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor
Answer:
m = 56.5 kg
Explanation:
Since the addition of mass on one piston caused a change in pressure head at the other. Diameter of the piston calculated is used as 0.46 m
Δm*g / Area = p * g * Δh ..... Eq1
