Newton's second law tells you: 

Sum of forces on an object = ma 

Here, the forces acting on the bundle are the tension in the string and the force of gravity, these two must combine to yield the acceleration of the bundle. 

So we have: 

T-mg = ma 

or T=m(g+a) 

We know m=8.7kg, we need to find a from the information 

starting from rest, an accelerating object covers distance according to: 

<span>dist = 1/2 at^2 </span>

to cover 1m in 1.8s, we have: 

a=2d/t^2 = 2x1/1.8^2 = 0.62 m/s/s 

Thus, the tension in the string is: 

<span>T = m(g+a)
=  8.7</span>kg(9.8m/s/s+0.62m/s/s) 
<span>
<span>T =  90.654 N

A 10v battery is connected in series with 2 resistors. R1 is 1 ohm and R2 is 4 ohms. What is the current that goes across R1?
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Current in circuit = 2 amp

Explanation:

Given:

Voltage of battery = 10 V

First Resistance R1 = 1 ohm

Second Resistance R2 = 4 ohm

Resistor connected in series

Find:

Current in circuit

Computation;

Resistor connected in series

So,

Total resistance R = First Resistance R1 + Second Resistance R2

Total resistance R = 1 ohm + 4 ohm

Total resistance R = 5 ohm

Current in circuit = V / R

Current in circuit = 10 / 5

Current in circuit = 2 amp

A spring of spring constant k is attached to a support at the bottom of a ramp that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. A bloc
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy

Energy lost  by the spring, W=Kinetic energy gained, KE+Potential energy gained, PE+Work done by friction, Fr

0.5kd^{2}=0.5mv^{2}+mgLsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta x

x(mgsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)=0.5kd^{2}

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

The required distance from A to B is x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}
