T = tension force in the cable

m = mass of the flowerpot = 10 kg

θ = angle cable makes with the horizontal = 30 deg

there are horizontal and vertical components of tension force . The vertical component of tension force in cable is in opposite direction of the weight of the flowerpot. hence vertical component of tension balances the weight of flowerpot. so we can write

T Sinθ = mg

inserting the above value

T Sin30 = 10 x 9.8

T(0.5) = 98

T = 98/0.5

T = 196 N

Three students have been studying relative motion and decide to do an experiment to demonstrate their knowledge. The experiment
miskamm [114]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Constant speed of Jane=12.6 m/s

a.When Fred can throw the ball 30  m/s

We have to find the angle relative to the horizontal when he throw the ball in order for Sue to see the ball travel vertically upward.

Let \theta be the angle .

Therefore,

30 cos\theta=12.6

cos\theta=\frac{12.6}{30}=0.42

\theta=cos^{-1}(0.42)=65.165^{\circ}

b.We have to find the height to which ball reach.

v^2-v^2_0=2aS

S=\frac{v^2-v^2_0}{2a}=\frac{0-(30 sin65.165)^2}{2(-9.81)}

S=37.78 m

A football player runs down a field with a speed of 8 m/s. How long will it take him to run 20m?
Shtirlitz [24]
To find the answer for this question, you simply need to divide 20 by 8, which is the speed he is traveling. 

20 / 8 = 2.5

The football player will run 20 yards in 2 1/2 seconds.
Hope that helped! =)

A thin, rectangular sheet of metal has mass M and sides of length a and b. Find the moment of inertia of this sheet about an axi
slega [8]
We divide the thin rectangular sheet in small parts of height b and length dr. All these sheets are parallel to b. The infinitesimal moment of inertia of one of these small parts is
dI =r^2*dm
where dm =M(b*dr)/(ab)
Now we find the moment of inertia by integrating from -a/2 to a/2
The moment of inertia is
I= \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} {r^2*dm} = M \int\limits^{-a/2}_{a/2} r^2(b*dr)/(ab)=(M/a)(r^3/3) (from (-a/2) toI=(M/3a)(a^3/8 +a^3/8)=(Ma^2)/12 (a/2))
