Answer:

62 N

Explanation:

Sum of the forces on the toolbox:

∑F = ma

T − mg = ma

T = mg + ma

T = m (g + a)

T = (5.0 kg) (9.8 m/s² + 2.5 m/s²)

T = 61.5 N

Rounded to two significant figures, the force exerted by the rope is 62 N.

An anchor with a density of 700 lb/ft3 tied to a rope is submerged in water (but is not touching the bottom). It has a volume of
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Density of anchor \rho _a=700\ lb/ft^3

Volume of anchor V=2.8\ ft^3

Density of water \rho _w=62.4\ lb\ft^3

Buoyancy force on submerged object is given by

F_B=\rho _W\times V\times g

F_B=62.4\times 2.8\times 32.2=5625.98\approx 5626\ approx lbf

A weight lifter picks up a barbell and 1. lifts it chest high 2. holds it for 30 seconds 3. puts it down slowly (but does not dr
Anna11 [10]

1. lifts it chest high

The force opposing to this action is the force due to gravity. Therefore the work done is:

W1 = m g d

where m is mass of the barbell, g is gravity and d is displacement

 

2. holds it for 30 seconds

Work is a product of force and displacement, since there is no displacement, therefore work done is zero.

W2 = 0

 

3. puts it down slowly

If the barbell was dropped, then it would simply be a free fall. But since it was not, so the work done here is also equal to the weight of the barbell times displacement:

W3 = m g d

 

We can see that W1 = W3, and since W2 = 0, therefore the answer is:

<span>w3 = w1 > w2</span>
