A ship is towed through a narrow channel by applying forces to three ropes attached to its bow. Determine the magnitude and orie

ntation θ of the force F→ so that the resultant force is in the direction of line a and the magnitude of F→ is as small as possible. Given: A = 5.5 kN.

This question is solved using an available similar problem as data provided for the forces was not given.

Repeat the same steps outlined for your problem.

Regards.

Answer:

F = 1.598 KN , Q = 90 degree (+ y-axis)

Explanation:

Sum of Forces in x-direction to the left (+)

2 cos (30) + 3cos (60) + F*cos (Q) = F_a   ..... 1

Sum of Forces in y-direction to the up (+)

2 sin (30) + F*sin (Q) - 3 sin (60)  ...... 2

Using Eq 2 and solve:

F*sin (Q) = 1.598 KN

F_min when sin (Q) is max, max possible value of sin(Q) = 1 @ Q = 90 degrees.

Hence,

F_min = 1.598 KN

Using Eq 1 @ Q = 90 degrees and F = 1.598 KN:

F_a = 2 cos (30) + 3cos (60)  = 3.2 KN

A boy of mass 50 kg exerts a pressure of 25000 pa calculate the area
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: A = 0.02 m²

Explanation: Solution:

Pressure is expressed in the formula:

P = F / A       where F = mg

  = mg /A

  = 50 kg ( 9.8 m/s²) / 25000 Pa

  =  0.02 m²

How is Newton’s first law demonstrated by your zip line
Nikitich [7]

Newton's First Law: An object in motion stays in motion, an object at rest stays at rest unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. For example, when zipping down the zip line you will stay in motion unless an outside force interferes. ... The more mass the more force needed.

A playground ride requires 21 seconds to make one complete revolution
luda_lava [24]

The angular speed of the playground ride is determined as 0.3 rad/s.

<h3>What is angular speed?</h3>

Angular speed is the rate at which an object changes it angles which we measure in radians in a given time.

<h3>Angular speed of the ride</h3>

The angular speed of the ride if the ride makes one complete revolution is calculated as follows;

ω = θ/t

ω = 2π/t

where;

  • ω is angular speed of the ride
  • t is time of motion of the ride

one complete revolution = 2π radians

ω = 2π/21

ω = 0.3 rad/s

Thus, the angular speed of the playground ride is determined as 0.3 rad/s.
