Kiley, Jermaine, and Gunther are playing tug-of-war. Kiley and Jermaine are on the same side of the rope, and Gunther is on the

other side. Kiley is exerting a force of 20 N, and Jermaine is exerting a force of 25 N.
Which force would result in a balanced force for the game?

-45N because you add the side together and make it equal 0

Kiley and Germaine pull together, resulting in a force of 45N which pulls the rope that way ===> .

In order to balance the forces on the rope, Gunther must pull the rope with a force of <em>45N this way  <===</em>, all by himself.

The net force on the rope will then be zero, and the rope will not accelerate.  (Although the tension inside the rope will be 90N.)

By the way . . . I'd love to see how the kids manage to all get on the "sides" of the rope.  I would have expected them to just do it the easy way and stand at the "ends" of the rope.

When a trebuchet counterweight is hoisted by soldiers, what form of energy is
vladimir1956 [14]
10. A safe place to use the trebuchet would be away from other buildings and people. A good example of a place would be a large field with no nearby structures. 
14. Many factors need to be kept consistent throughout the experiment. One example of a variable that would need to be consistent is the weight and size of the projectile. 
15. It is important to do many trials so that you can make sure that the results of each trial are nearly the same. If they are all vastly different, then it means that something has gone wrong. 

Sorry I was only able to answer a few questions, but I hope these few answers help! :)

A power plant produces 1000 MW to supply a city 40 km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance 0.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Current = 8696 A

Fraction of power lost = \dfrac{80}{529} = 0.151

Explanation:

Electric power is given by

P=IV

where I is the current and V is the voltage.

I=\dfrac{P}{V}

Using values from the question,

I=\dfrac{1000\times10^6 \text{ W}}{115\times10^3\text{ V}} = 8696 \text{ A}

The power loss is given by

P_\text{loss} = I^2R

where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of 0.050\Omega per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is

R = 0.050\times40 = 2\Omega

Hence,

P_\text{loss} = \left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2

The fraction lost = \dfrac{P_\text{loss}}{P}=\left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2\div (1000\times10^6)=\dfrac{80}{529}=0.151

Which type of force absorbs shock in vehicles
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Vehicles typically employ both hydraulic shock absorbers and springs or torsion bars. In this combination, "shock absorber" refers specifically to the hydraulic piston that absorbs and dissipates vibration.

Marrrta [24]
F = m₁ a₁ = m₂ a₂

if m₁ = m and m₂ = 2m :

F = ma₁ = 2m  a₂ ⇒ a₁ = 2 a₂
 
since v = at + v₀  with t = 3, v₀ = 0 ⇒ v = 3a:

v₁ = 2 v₂

since p = vm with v₁ = 2v and v₂ = v :

p₁ = v₁m₁ = 2v ⁻ m
p₂ = v₂m₂ = v ⁻ 2m

p₁ = p₂
