10.4 N

Given

m = 1.10 kg

θ = 15.0°

g = 9.81 m/s2

Solution

Fnet, y = ΣF y = Fn − Fg, y = 0

Fn = Fg, y = Fg

cosθ = mgcosθ

Fn = (1.10 kg)(9.81 m/s2

)(cos15.0°) = 10.4 N

Some fish have a density slightly less than that of water and must exert a force (swim) to stay submerged. What force must an 85
vichka [17]

The force require to keep grouper submerged is 8.207N.

According to Archimedes principle  buoyant force of any object must equal to weight of fluid it displaced.

The expression for the force exerted to stay submerged in salt water is

           F = F(b) - w(fish)

 where F(b) = buoyant force

              w(fish) = weight

      now substitute w(b) for F(b)

   →  F = Vρg - w(fish)

where  V = volume of sea water

             ρ = density of sea water

Now by Archimedes principle   V = m(fish)  / ρ(fish)

    →    F = (m(fish) / ρ (fish) ) ρg - m(fish)g

           F =   (85 kg/1015 kg-m^-3) (1.025× 10³ kg-m^-3) (9.8 m/s^2)

                                  -   (85kg)  × 9.8 m/s^2

           F = 841.207N - 833N

           F = 8.207 N

  Hence, the force require to keep grouper submerged is 8.207N.

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 0.355 - L cans per min
jekas [21]

Answer:

a)  1.301 kg/s

b) 0.001301 m³/s

c) V₁ = 6.505 m/s, V₂ = 1.626 m/s

d) 118.93 kPa

Explanation:

Given:

The number of cans  = 220

The volume of can, V = 0.355 L = 0.355 × 10⁻³ m³

time = 1 minute = 60 seconds

gauge pressure at point 2, P₂ = 152 kPa

b) Thus, the volume flow rate, Q = Volume/ time

Q = (220 × 0.355 × 10⁻³)/60 = 0.001301 m³/s

a) mass flow rate = Volume flow rate × density

since it is mostly water, thus density of the drink = 1000 kg/m³

thus,

mass flow rate = 0.001301 m³/s × 1000 kg/m³ = 1.301 kg/s

c) Given:

Cross section at point 1 = 2.0 cm² = 2 × 10 ⁻⁴ m²

Cross section at point 2 = 8.0 cm² = 8 × 10 ⁻⁴ m²

also,

Q = Area × Velocity

thus, for point 1

0.001301 m³/s = 2 × 10 ⁻⁴ m² × velocity at point 1 (V₁)

or

V₁ = 6.505 m/s

for point 2

0.001301 m³/s = 8 × 10 ⁻⁴ m² × velocity at point 1 (V₂)

or

V₂ = 1.626 m/s

d) Applying the Bernoulli's theorem between the points 1 and 2 we have

P_1+\rho gV_1 + \frac{\rho V_1^2}{2}=P_2+\rho gV_2 + \frac{\rho V_2^2}{2}

or

P_1=P_2+\rho\timesg(y_2-y_1)+\frac{\rho}{2}(V_2^2-V_1^2))

on substituting the values in the above equation, we get

P_1=152+1000\times 9.8(1.35)+\frac{1000}{2}(1.626^2-6.505^2))

it is given that point 1 is above point 2 thus, y₂ -y₁ is negative

or

P_1=118.93\ kPa

thus, gauge pressure at point 1 is 118.93 kPa

A speeding Thunderbird left skid marks on the road that were 76.7 m long when it came to a stop. If the acceleration of the car
FrozenT [24]

Answer: 39.2 m/s

Explanation:

You can use the kinematic equation:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2a*d

We know the final velocity because it says it came to a stop. So now all we gotta do is plug in.

0^2=v_i^2+2(-10)(76.7)\\v_i^2=1,534\\v_i=\sqrt{1534} \\=39.166 m/s
