Answer: Weight truck+load = 29.4×10^{3} N

Explanation: When an object floats in a fluid, there is an upward force, caused by the liquid, acting on the object that opposes the weight of the immersed object. This force is called <u>Buyoyant</u> <u>Force</u> and is determined by:

B = d*V*g

where

d is density of the fluid;

V is volume of liquid displaced due to the immersed object;

g is acceleration due to gravity;

For the truck, the system is in equilibrium, which means buyoyant force is equal weight. Then:

Volume displaced is

V = 10*8*0.0375

V = 3 m^{3}

Density of water: 1000kg/m^{3}

F_{P} = F_{B}

F_{P} = 1000*3*9.8

F_{P} = 29.4×10^{3} N

The weight of the truck and the load is 29.4×10^{3} Newtons

1. A 4-N force is used to move an object 2 m in 10 s. Which of the following is the power generated while moving the object?
guajiro [1.7K]

Power is the work done per unit time. Therefore,

\begin{gathered} p=\frac{w}{t} \\ \text{where} \\ w=\text{work done} \\ t=\text{time} \end{gathered}

Therefore,

\begin{gathered} \text{work done=fd} \\ f=force=4N \\ d=\text{displacement}=2m \\ t=2\sec s \\ p=\frac{fd}{t}=\frac{4\times2}{10}=\frac{8}{10}=0.8watts \end{gathered}

the maximum range of a projectile is 2÷√3 times its actual range what is the angle of the projection for the actual range​
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The actual angle is 30°

Explanation:

<h2>Equation of projectile:</h2><h2>y axis:</h2>

v_y(t)=vo*sin(A)-g*t

the velocity is Zero when the projectile reach in the maximum altitude:

0=vo-gt\\t=\frac{vo}{g}

When the time is vo/g the projectile are in the middle of the range.

<h2>x axis:</h2>

d_x(t)=vo*cos(A)*t\\

R=Range

R=d_x(t=2*\frac{vo}{g})

R=vo*cos(A)*2\frac{vo}{g} \\\\R=\frac{(vo)^{2}*2* sin(A)cos(A)}{g} \\\\R=\frac{(vo)^{2} sin(2A)}{g}

**sin(2A)=2sin(A)cos(A)

<h2>The maximum range occurs when A=45°(because sin(90°)=1)</h2><h2>The actual range R'=(2/√3)R:</h2>

Let B the actual angle of projectile

\frac{vo^{2} }{g} =(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }) \frac{vo^{2} *sin(2B)}{g}\\\\1= \frac{2 }{\sqrt{3}} *sin(2B)\\\\sin(2B)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\

2B=60°

B=30°

Two college teams, A and B, are playing a game of tug of war. Team A applies a force of 103 newtons, but the rope does not move
Kipish [7]
Given that the rope is not moving (acceleration is zero), by the second Law of Newton (F=m*a), the net force acting on the rope is zero.

Then, the force applied by the team B equals the force applied by the tema A: 103 N.
