Refer to the diagram shown below.

From the geometry, obtain
x = 2.5 - 0.55 = 1.95 m
cos θ = 1.95/2.5 = 0.78
θ = cos⁻¹ 0.78 = 38.74°

From the free body diagram, the tension in the chain is 450 N.
F is the centripetal force,
W is Dee's weight.

The components of the tension are
Horizontal component = 450 sin(38.74°) = 281.6 N, acting left.
Vertical component = 450 cos(38.74°) = 351.0 N, acting upward.

Answers:
Horizontal: 281.6, acting left.
Vertical: 351.0 N, acting upward.

An 67-kg jogger is heading due east at a speed of 2.3 m/s. A 70-kg jogger is heading 61 ° north of east at a speed of 1.3 m/s. F
ololo11 [35]

Answer

given,

mass of jogger  = 67 kg

speed in east direction = 2.3 m/s

mass of jogger 2 = 70 Kg

speed  = 1.3 m/s  in  61 ° north of east.

jogger one

P_1 = m_1 v_1 \hat{i}

P_1 = 67 \times 2.3\hat{i}

P_1 = 154.1 \hat{i}

P_2 = m_2 v_2 \hat{i} +m_2 v_2 \hat{j}

P_2 = 70\times v cos \theta \hat{i} +70\times v sin \theta \hat{j}

P_2 = 70\times 1.3 cos 61^0 \hat{i} +70\times 1.3 sin 61^0\hat{j}

P_2 = 44.12\hat{i} +79.59\hat{j}

now

P = P₁ + P₂

P = 198.22 \hat{i} +79.59 \hat{j}

magnitude

P = \sqrt{198.22^2 + 79.59^2}

P =213.60 kg.m/s

\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{79.59}{198.22}

\theta = 21.87

the angle is \theta = 21.87 north of east

We need to subtract his current status by his goal:

goal - current = needed
6.12 - 5.73 = 0.39 m.

Now, we need to convert to cm. Since there is 100 cm in 1 m:

0.39 * 100
39 cm

Hope this helps!

The mechanical advantage of any machine is: A) the efficiency of the machine B) the work done by the machine C) the ratio of the
lianna [129]

Answer:

Option D) the ratio of the force exerted by the machine to the force applied

Explanation:

The measure of the amplification of the force applied to a mechanical device or a measure of the force exerted by a mechanical device.

The input of the tool or machine is then conserved and the forces are trade off against motion to achieve a required level of amplification.

Therefore, only option c. complies with it.
