We will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law. At the same time we will convert everything to the system of international units.
The values of the velocities are,
We know that the acceleration is equivalent to the change of the speed in a certain time therefore
Now applying the Newton's second law we have,
Therefore the approximate magnitude is 8516.36N
I would say C but I’m not complete sore
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
The answer is one apothecary pound = 12 ounces
