A 150 kg uniform beam is attached to a vertical wall at one end and is supported by a cable at the other end. Calculate the magn

itude of the tension in the wire if the angle between the cable and the horizontal is θ = 47°.

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

Which unit of measurement is included in the International System of Unit! (si)?
ozzi

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

There are several measures for the international system of measures. Let's name some and their representation symbol.

meter = [m]

time = [s] = seconds

mass = [kg] = kilograms

Temperature = [°C] = celcius degrees

Power = [W] = watts.

Force = [N] = Newtons

Consider a simple pendulum with a period
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

1. The length is 8.35m

2. The period on the moon is 14.05 secs

Explanation:

1. Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Period (T) = 5.8 secs

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s2

Length (L) =...?

The length can be obtained by using the formula given below:

T = 2π√(L/g)

5.8 = 2π√(L/9.8)

Take the square of both side

(5.8)^2 = 4π^2 x L/ 9.8

Cross multiply

4π^2 x L = (5.8)^2 x 9.8

Divide both side by 4π^2

L = (5.8)^2 x 9.8 / 4π^2

L= 8.35 m

2. Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 1.67 m/s2

Length (L) = 8.35m (the length remains the same)

Period (T) =?

The period can be obtained as follow:

T = 2π√(L/g)

T = 2π√(8.35/1.67)

T = 14.05 secs

Therefore, the period on the moon is 14.05 secs

A very long uniform line of charge has charge per unit length λ1 = 4.68 μC/m and lies along the x-axis. A second long uniform li
Kitty [74]

Answer:

E_{net} = 6.44 \times 10^5 N/C

Explanation:

As we know that electric field due to infinite line charge distribution at some distance from it is given as

E = \frac{2k \lambda}{r}

now we need to find the electric field at mid point of two wires

So here we need to add the field due to two wires as they are oppositely charged

Now we will have

E_{net} = \frac{2k\lambda_1}{r} + \frac{2k\lambda_2}{r}

now plug in all data

\lambda_1 = 4.68 \muC/m

\lambda_2 = 2.48 \mu C/m

r = 0.200 m

now we have

E_{net} = \frac{2k}{r}(4.68 + 2.48)

E_{net} = \frac{2(9\times 10^9)}{0.200}(7.16 \times 10^{-6})

E_{net} = 6.44 \times 10^5 N/C

a stone is projected vertically up from the top of a tower 73.5m with velocity 24.5 m/s . find the time taken by the stone to re
hoa [83]

The stone's altitude at time t is given by

y=73.5\,\mathrm m+\left(24.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2

where g=9.80\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2} is the acceleration due to gravity. The stone reaches the ground when y=0:

0=73.5\,\mathrm m+\left(24.5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2\implies t=7.11\,\rm s
