A 5.0 kg block hangs from the ceiling by a mass-less rope. A Second block with a mass of 10.0 kg is attached to the first block

gayaneshka [121]

The tension in the first and second rope are; 147 Newton and 98 Newton respectively.

Given the data in the question

Mass of first block; $m_1 = 5.0kg$

Mass of second block, $m_2 =10kg$

Tension on first rope; $T_1 =\ ?$

Tension on second rope; $T_2 =\ ?$

To find the Tension in each of the ropes, we make use of the equation from Newton's Second Laws of Motion:

$F = m\ *\ a$

Where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration ( In this case the block is under gravity. Hence ''a" becomes acceleration due to gravity $g = 9.8m/s^2$ )

For the First Rope

Total mass hanging on it; $m_T = m_1 + m_2 = 5.0kg + 10.0kg = 15.0kg$

So Tension of the rope;

$F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 15.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 147 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 147N$

Therefore, the tension in the first rope is 147 Newton

For the Second Rope

Since only the block of mass 10kg is hang from the second, the tension in the second rope will be;

$F = m\ * \ g\\\\F = 10.0kg \ * 9.8m/s^2\\\\F = 98 kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 98N$

Therefore, the tension in the second rope is 98 Newton

3. The soccer kicker kicks a 2 kg football with a force of 68 N. How fast will the ball accelerate down the field?

Katen [24]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf m= 2 \ kg , \\a= 34 \ m/s^2, \\\F= 68 \ N}}$

Explanation:

The formula for force is:

$F=m*a$

If we rearrange the formula to solve for a (acceleration), the formula becomes

$\frac{F}{m} =a$

The force is 68 Newtons. Let's convert the units to make the problem easier later on. 1 N is equal to 1 kg*m/s², so the force of 68 N is equal to 68 kg*m/s².

The mass is 2 kilograms.

$F=68 \ kg*m/s^2 \\m= 2\ kg$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$\frac{68 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg} =a$

Divide. Note that the kilograms will cancel each other out (hence why we changed the units).

$\frac{68 \ m/s^2}{2}=a$

$34 \ m/s^2=a$

The acceleration is<u> </u><u>34 meters per second squared.</u>

If you jumped out of a plane, you would begin speeding up as you fall downward. Eventually, due to wind resistance, your velocit

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Mg or your weight.

Explanation:

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas

jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks
