A 500 kg table with 4 legs rests on solid flat ground. I place 3 books on the center of the table with masses of 10 kg, 20 kg an

d 30 kg respectively. What is the normal force between the ground and one leg of the table?

Answer:

1,373.4 N

Explanation:

The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.

Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg

Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg

This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg

Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N

Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N

Answer:

$\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Depth of Death valley is 85 m below sea level, $h_i=-85\ m$

The summit of nearby Mt. Whitney has an elevation of 4420 m, $h_f=4420\ m$

Mass of the hiker, m = 65 kg

We need to find the change in potential energy. It is given by :

$\Delta E=mg(h_f-h_i)$

$\Delta E=65\times 9.8(4420-(-85))$

$\Delta E=2869685\ J$

or

$\Delta E=2.87\times 10^6\ J$

So, the change in potential energy of the hiker is $2.87\times 10^6\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A swimming pool is 50 ft wide and 100 ft long and its bottom is an inclined plane, the shallow end having a depth of 4 ft and th

Nina [5.8K]

Explanation:

We define force as the product of mass and acceleration.

F = ma

It means that the object has zero net force when it is in rest state or it when it has no acceleration. However in the case of liquids. just like the above mentioned case, the water is at rest but it is still exerting a pressure on the walls of the swimming pool. That pressure exerted by the liquids in their rest state is known as hydro static force.

Given Data:

Width of the pool = w = 50 ft

length of the pool = l= 100 ft

Depth of the shallow end = h(s) = 4 ft

Depth of the deep end = h(d) = 10 ft.

weight density = ρg = 62.5 lb/ft

Solution:

a) Force on a shallow end:

$F = \frac{pgwh}{2} (2x_{1}+h)$

$F = \frac{(62.5)(50)(4)}{2}(2(0)+4)$

$F = 25000 lb$

b) Force on deep end:

$F = \frac{pgwh}{2} (2x_{1}+h)$

$F = \frac{(62.5)(50)(10)}{2} (2(0)+10)$

$F = 187500 lb$

c) Force on one of the sides:

As it is mentioned in the question that the bottom of the swimming pool is an inclined plane so sum of the forces on the rectangular part and triangular part will give us the force on one of the sides of the pool.

1) Force on the Rectangular part:

$F = \frac{pg(l.h)}{2}(2(x_{1} )+ h)$

$x_{1} = 0\\h_{s} = 4ft$

$F = \frac{(62.5)(100)(2)}{2}(2(0)+4)$

$F =25000lb$

2) Force on the triangular part:

$F = \frac{pg(l.h)}{6} (3x_{1} +2h)$

here

h = h(d) - h(s)

h = 10-4

h = 6ft

$x_{1} = 4ft\\$

$F = \frac{62.5 (100)(6)}{6} (3(4)+2(6))$

$F = 150000 lb$

now add both of these forces,

F = 25000lb + 150000lb

F = 175000lb

d) Force on the bottom:

$F = \frac{pgw\sqrt{l^{2} + ((h_{d}) - h(s)) } (h_{d}+h_{s}) }{2}$

$F = \frac{62.5(50)\sqrt{100^{2}(10-4) } (10+4) }{2}$

$F = 2187937.5 lb$
