Q1. Tractors are often used on sloping fields, so stability is important in their design. On the diagram, the center of the X ma

rks the center of the tractor.
a) Explain why the tractor has not toppled over.

b) Give two features of the tractor which affects its stability.
Q2. The diagram shows two buses. Bus A is empty. Bus B contains bags of sand upstairs to represent passengers. Each bus has been tilted as far as it can without falling over.
a) Each bus will topple over if it is tilted any further. Explain why this will happen.
b) What difference does it make to the stability of the bus when the upper deck is full of passengers?
c) Why are the bags of sand in bus B only put upstairs?
Q3. A tractor is being used on a rough ground. What is the safest position for its center of mass? it is an emergency I will give you 20 points

Answer:

a) The tractor has not toppled over because the the center of mass is acting in between the wheels

b) The features which affect its stability are;

1) The location of the center of gravity of the tractor close to the ground

2) The increased spacing between the left and the right wheels of the tractor

Q2. a) The center of mass wheel act in the region to the right away the wheel span (space in between the wheel) which creates a clockwise effect to, topple the buses over

b) It raises the bus's center of mass higher

c) To raise the center of mass to its highest practical level

Q3. At the bottom middle location within the tractor

Explanation:

a) The tractor has not toppled over because the vertical line from the center of gravity to the ground is still in between the wheel base such that since the tractor will topple over by turning clockwise about the right tire due to its weight, the weight of the tractor is currently acting in the anticlockwise direction to the right end tire of the tractor keeping the tractor's tires in good contact with the ground

b) The features which affect its stability are;

1) The location of the center of gravity of the tractor close to the ground

2) The increased spacing between the left and the right wheels of the tractor

Q2. a) When either of the buses are tilted further, the mass of the buses is acting on the tires and in their tilted condition, the mass is acting mainly on the right tire, whereby as the vertical line from the center of mass to the ground is in between the wheel bases the mass of the buses still serve s the restoring force to keep the bus on ground by providing anticlockwise moment where clockwise lotion is required for the bus to topple over

If the buses are tilted further, the vertical line from the center of mass will cross to the other side of the right tire such that the mass now provides clockwise moment turning the buses clockwise and since there are no opposing anticlockwise moment to balance that of the now clockwise moment of the buses it will continue to turn clockwise with the result that they eventually  topple over

b) When the upper deck is full of passengers, there will be an appreciable proportion of the total mass of the bus in the upper deck such that the level of the center of mass will be raised up higher

c) Sand bags are only put upstairs because by allowing for the disproportionate distribution of load such that the majority of the load of the bus is concentrated upstairs, the center of mass will be at its maximum height allowing the bus to be tested for stability in the worst case scenario

Therefore, the sands are only put upstairs to raise the center of mass

Q3. Being that the tractor is being used on a rough ground, the safest position will be at the lowest possible location at the middle of both the front and rear wheels and the left and right tires.

Which material is more closely related to the styrofoam? a. heat exchanger b. diffuser c. insulator d. electrical conductor
nirvana33 [79]

The material that is more closely related to the Styrofoam insulator.

Styrofoam is the term that is used for polystyrene foam in a trademark form. It is a petroleum-based plastic.

Keeping something warm includes the stopping of the transfer of heat from one object to another. This is how insulation works.

Styrofoam is an insulator, which means it'll help keep the heat from the environment out of your cooler. However, you'll still need cooling agents (like ice packs) to make the cooler cold in the first place.

Styrofoam is usually made mostly of air, which means it is a poor conductor of heat, but an excellent convector. It traps the air in small pockets, which blocks the flow of heat energy. This reduces both conduction and convection and makes Styrofoam a good insulator.

A glass bottle of soda is sealed with a screw cap. The absolute pressure of the carbon dioxide inside the bottle is 1.50 x 105 P
MArishka [77]

Answer:

F \approx 19.5 N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Pressure of  P_{CO_2}=1.50 * 105 Pa.

Bottle cap area A_b= 4.40 * 10-4 m^2

 

Generally the equation for Resultant pressure P_r is give as is mathematically given by

P_r=P_{CO_2}-P_a

Where

P_a=atmospheric\ pressure = 1.013*10^5 pa

P_r=1.50 * 105 Pa-1.013*10^5 pa

P_r=0.487*10^5 pa

Generally the equation for Force exerted by screw F is give as is mathematically given by

F = P*A\\F = 0.487*10^5*4.00*10^-4\\ F = 19.48 N

F \approx 19.5 N

A woman climbs up a ladder in 1.37 s at 2.20 m/s. How tall is the ladder?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The ladder is 3.014 m tall.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must use the following formula:

v = x/t

where v represents the woman’s velocity, x represents the distance she climbed (the height of the ladder), and t represents the time it took her to move this distance

If we plug in the values we are given for the problem, we get:

v = x/t

2.20 = x/1.37

To solve this equation for x (the height of the ladder), we must multiply both sides by 1.37. If we do this, we get:

x = (2.20 * 1.37)

x = 3.014 m

Therefore, the ladder is 3.014 m tall.

Hope this helps!
