The 9-m boom AB has a fixed end A. A steel cable is stretched from the free end B of the boom to a point Clocated on the vertica

l wall. If the tension in the cable is 3 kN, determine the moment about A of the force exertedby the cable at B.

7 0

Answer:

27000 Nm

Explanation:

The boom end at A is fixed and end at B is subjected to a 3kN force. Boom AB has length of 9m. The moment about A is the product of force 3kN (3000 N) at B and the moment arm of 9m

M = FL = 3000 * 9 = 27000 Nm

So the moment about A is 27000 Nm

A plane drops a rubber raft to the survivors of a shipwreck. The plane is flying at a height of 1960 m and with a speed of 109 m
Korolek [52]

In this case the rubber raft has horizontal and vertical motion.

Considering vertical motion first.

We have displacement  s = ut +\frac{1}{2}at^2, u = Initial velocity, t = time taken, a = acceleration.

In vertical motion

    s = 1960 m, u = 0 m/s, a = 9.81 m/s^2

    1960 = 0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.81*t^2\\ \\ t = 20 seconds

So raft will take 20 seconds to reach ground.

Now considering horizontal motion of raft

u = 109 m/s, t = 20 s, a = 0m/s^2

So s = 109*20+\frac{1}{2} *0*20^2 = 2180 m

So shipwreck was 2180 meter far away from the plane when the raft was dropped.

If a car has a mass of 200 kilograms and produces a force of 500 N, how fast will the car accelerate?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

F = ma

500N = 200 × a

200a. = 500N

a. =. 500N/200

a. =. 2.5m/s²

If a voltmeter has a less than ideal resistance, say 1 MΩ, and is used to measure the voltage across a resistor of a comparable
Naddik [55]

Answer:

As the difference between the resistance of voltmeter and the resistance being measured gets reduced the error in the reading of the voltmeter gets increased.

Explanation:

An ideal voltmeter has infinite parallel resistance and because of this it doesn't draw any current from the circuit of measurement which means it will measure the exact voltage across the elements.

But practically speaking, a real voltmeter doesn't has infinite resistance therefore, all the practical voltmeters face loading effect to some extent.

As the difference between the resistance of voltmeter and the resistance being measured gets reduced the error in the reading of the voltmeter gets increased. This is why we want to have a greater value of voltmeter resistance, ideally infinite so that the corresponding error is minimized.

Lets consider the given scenario,

A voltmeter has 1 MΩ parallel resistance and the resistance of of measuring element is 500 kΩ or 0.5 MΩ

lets suppose the supplied voltage is 1 V.

First lets assume that the voltmeter is ideal and it has infinite resistance, so in this case voltmeter will measure a voltage of 1 V across the 0.5 MΩ resistor.

Now consider the loading effect, when we connect the voltmeter across the 0.5 MΩ resistor they both become parallel so the resistance is

R = (1*0.5)/(1+0.5)

R = 0.33 MΩ

As you can see the voltmeter will see a reduced resistance and the corresponding voltage also reduces because resistance and voltage are directly proportional.

Therefore, it is preferred to have a very high parallel resistance of the voltmeter.

A sinusoidal transverse wave travels along a long, stretched string. The amplitude of this wave is 0.08190.0819 m, its frequency
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Amplitude = 0.08190 m

Frequency = 2.29 Hz

Wavelength = 1.87 m

(a). We need to calculate the shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave

Using formula of distance

d=2A

Where, d = distance

A = amplitude

Put the value into the formula

d=2\times0.08190

d=0.1638\ m

Hence, The shortest transverse distance between a maximum and a minimum of the wave is 0.1638 m.
