A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

44.0 N without breaking. What is the weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in (a) at constant speed and (b) with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.26 m/s2?

Answer:

(a) W= 44N

(b)W= 31.65 N

Explanation:

Data

T=44 N : Maximum force that the rope can withstand without breaking

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

(a)  We apply the formula (1) at constant speed , then, a=0

W: heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically

∑F = 0

T-W =0  

W = T

W= 44N

(b)  We apply the formula (1) , a= 1.26 m/s²

W: heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically

W= m*g

m= W/g

g= 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

∑F = 0

T-W = m*a

T= W+(W/g)*a

44=W*(1+1/9.8)* (1.26 )

44= W* 1.39

W= 44/1.39

W= 31.65 N

All of the following show friction as a useful force, except
Troyanec [42]

having to push a rough and heavy box across the floor to move it

Explanation:

Friction is not a useful force because we have to exert even more force to push a body that is rough and heavy across the floor to move it.

  • Frictional force is a force that opposes the motion of a body.
  • It costs more and uses more energy to push a rough and heavy box on surface because of friction.
  • This wastes energy in systems that deals with pushing.

Friction is useful in that:

  • the heat energy produced when two surfaces rub together  is very useful.
  • the friction between your feet and the floor keeping you from slipping  and makes walking possible.
  • the tread on tires helping the moving vehicle slow down and stop when necessary.
