Two boxes on a horizontal plane with coefficient of friction µ are connected by a massless string. The left-hand box has mass m

and the right-hand box has mass 2m. A force F is applied to the right-hand mass at an angle θ with respect to the horizontal so that they move to the right at constant acceleration. What is the magnitude of the tensi

Answer:

T = (3μmg - Fcosθ)/2

Explanation:

Since the boxes move to the right, the net force on box of mass 2m is

Fcosθ - 2μmg + T = ma (1)where Fcosθ = horizontal component of applied force, 2μmg = frictional force and T = tension in string and a = acceleration of box

The net force on the box with mass m is

μmg - T = ma (2) where μmg = frictional force, T = tension and a = acceleration of boxes.

Equating (1) and (2) we have

Fcosθ - 2μmg + T = μmg - T

collecting like terms

Fcosθ - 2μmg - μmg = -T - T

Fcosθ - 3μmg = -2T

(3μmg - Fcosθ)/2 = T

T = (3μmg - Fcosθ)/2

Why are water storage tanks usually placed on high towers
sammy [17]
Thay are on high towers because if it was below how would the water flow. Putting it on high towers gives you an advantage of the gravity with means you got free pressure without having to use a pump.

<span>Water pressure = Height * density * gravity</span>

What is the momentum of a 0.000015 kg mosquito flying straight at you with a velocity of 5.20 m/s?
Setler [38]

Answer:

Momentum, p=7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a mosquito, m = 0.000015 kg

Velocity of the mosquito, v = 5.2 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the mosquito. The momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

Put all the values in the above formula.

p=0.000015\ kg\times 5.2\ m/s\\\\p=0.000078\ N-m\\\\\text{or}\\\\p=7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m

So, the momentum of the mosquito is 7.8\times 10^{-5}\ N-m.

A karate master strikes a board with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s, decreasing to 1.0 m/s as his hand passes through the board
kenny6666 [7]

The force exerted on the board by the karate master given the data is -4500 N

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Initial velocity (u) = 10 m/s
  • Final velocity (v) = 1 m/s
  • Time (t) = 0.002 s
  • Mass (m) = 1 Kg
  • Force (F) = ?
<h3>How to determine the force</h3>

The force exerted can be obtained as illustrated below:

F = m(v - u) / t

F = 1 (1 - 10) / 0.002

F = (1 × -9) / 0.002

F = -4500 N

Three resistances 2 ohm ,3ohm and 5 ohm are connected in parallel and a
hammer [34]

The potential difference across 3 Ohm resistor is 20V.

The resistors are connected in parallel which means all the three resistances have a fully potential difference of 20V.
