A horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 12 meters apart. When a mass of 4 kilograms is tied to the middle of the cloth

esline, it sags a distance of 5 meters. What is the magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline?

Answer:

T=26.03 N

Explanation:

Given that

Distance between poles = 12 m

Mass of block m= 4 kg

Sag distance = 5 m

Lets take tension in the clothesline is T.

The component of tension in vertical direction will be T cosθ.

By force balancing

2 T cosθ = 40

here tan\theta =\dfrac{5}{6}

θ=39.80°

2 T cos39.8 = 40

T=26.03 N

Two paths lead to the top of a big hill. One is steep and direct, while the other is twice as long but less steep. How much more
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

None.

Explanation:

  • Gravitational potential energy, depends only of the mass on which the gravity is doing work, and the displacement produced by this force.
  • As displacement depends only on the final and initial positions (in this case, the height of the hill), if we choose as our zero reference level the bottom of the hill, the change in gravitational potential energy will be as follows:

       \Delta U = U_{f} -U_{0} = m*g*h - 0  = m*g*h

  • As we can see, the only value of distance involved is the height of the hill , so it is independent of the distance travelled.

The​ half-life of a certain radioactive substance is 12 hours. There are 19 grams present initially. a. Express the amount of su
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(a) N=19\times e^{-\lambda t}

(b) 15 hours

Explanation:

half life, T = 12 hours

No = 19 g

(a) Let N be the amount remaining after time t.

Let λ be the decay constant.

\lambda =\frac {0.6931}{T}

The equation of radioactivity used here is given by

N=N_{o}e^{-\lambda t}

N=19\times e^{-\lambda t}

(b) N = 8 gram

Substitute the values in above equation

\lambda =\frac {0.6931}{12}

λ = 0.0577 per hour

So, 8=19\times e^{-0.577t}

e^{-0.0577t}=0.421

Take natural log on both the sides

- 0.0577 t = - 0.865

t = 15 hours
