A mechanic jacks up the front of a car to an angle of 8.0° with the horizontal in order to change the front tires. the car is 3.

05 m long and has a mass of 1130 kg. gravitational force acts at the center of mass, which is located 1.12 m from the front end. the rear wheels are 0.40 m from the back end. calculate the magnitude of the torque exerted by the jack.

<span>First draw a free-body diagram. Torque T = Force F x Distance d where force is the component of gravitational force g and d is the lever arm distance to the pivot point. Since the pivot point is at the back tire we subtract that from the length of the car resulting in d = 1.12 - 0.40 = 0.72 meters = d. We are interested in the perpendicular component of the force exerted on the car jack so use sin 8 degrees then T=1130 kg x 9.81 m/s^2 x sin(8 degrees) x0.72 m = 1,110.80 Newton-meters</span>

What is the magnitude of g at a height above Earth's surface where free-fall acceleration equals 6.5m/s^2?
prohojiy [21]

You've given the answer, right there in your question.

The "magnitude of gravity" is described in terms of the acceleration
due to it, and you just told us what that is.

We can also notice that the figure you gave is about 0.66 of the
acceleration due to gravity on the Earth's surface. That tells us that
the distance from the Earth's center at that height is about 

                     (1 / √0.66) = 1.23 times

the Earth's radius, so the height is about  910 miles above the surface.

A 30.0 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension (in N) in the rope if the box has an initial velocity of 2.0 m/s and is slo
hjlf

Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

When a net force of 17.0 newtons is applied to a dictionary placed on a frictionless table, it accelerates by 3.75 meters/second
4vir4ik [10]
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)    (Newton's second law of motion)

Divide both sides of the equation by 'acceleration', and you have

Mass = (force) / (acceleration)

Mass = 17 newtons / 3.75 meters per second-sqrd = 4.533 kilograms (rounded)

Compressions and rarefactions are characteristic of
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Of longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Depending on the direction of the oscillation, there are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the oscillations occur perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillations occur parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In such a wave, the oscillations are produced by alternating regions of higher density of particles, called compressions, and regions of lower density of particles, called rarefactions. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Review. A light spring of force constant 3.85 N/m is compressed by 8.00 cm and held between a 0.250-kg block on the left and a 0
photoshop1234 [79]

The answer is 0.245N.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
  • A particle or an item that is in motion has a sort of energy called kinetic energy. An item accumulates kinetic energy when work, which involves the transfer of energy, is done on it by exerting a net force.
  • Kinetic energy comes in five forms: radiant, thermal, acoustic, electrical, and mechanical.
  • The energy of a body in motion, or kinetic energy (KE), is essentially the energy of all moving objects. Along with potential energy, which is the stored energy present in objects at rest, it is one of the two primary types of energy.
  • Explain that a moving object's mass and speed are two factors that impact the amount of kinetic energy it will possess.

(b) 0.100

For the block on the left, f_{k} =u_{k} n= 0.100(2.45N)=0.245N.

∑F_{x}=ma_{x}

–0.308N+0.245N=(0.250kg)a

a=−0.252m/s^{2} if the force of static friction is not too large.

For the block on the right, f_{k} =u_{k} n=0.490N. The maximum force of static friction would be larger, so no motion would begin, and the acceleration is zero
