7. A locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars, each of which is loaded with the same amount of weight. The mass of each freight car

(with its load) is 37,000 kg. If the train is accelerating at 0.22m/s2 on a level track, what is the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars

Answer:

N 138380

Explanation:

Force = ma where m is the mass in kg and a is acceleration

the locomotive is pulling 19 freight cars mass of each car is 37 000 kg

the train accelerating at 0.22 m/s²

the tension in the coupling between the second and third cars = the tension between the second and third cars pulling the third car to the 19 th car = 17 × 37000 kg × 0.22 m/s² = N 138380

Answer:

0.0979 N/c

Explanation:

Electric field, E is given as a product of resistivity and current density

E=jP where P is resistivity and j is current density

But the current density is given as

j=\frac {I}{A} where I is current and A is area and A=\pi r^{2}

Substituting this into the first equation then E=P\times \frac {I}{\pi r^{2}}

Given diameter of 0.259 cm= 0.00259 m and the radius will be half of it which is 0.001295 m

E=1.72\times 10^{-8}\times \frac {30}{\pi \times 0.001295^{2}}=9.79\times 10^{-2} N/c=0.0979 N/c

Which of the following accurately describes the differences between the SI and English systems of measurement?
Digiron [165]
The best answer is D. The SI system, which is based on the metric system, has been more widely adopted than the English system, which is harder to use. In order to standardize measurements, the International System of Units or the SI units are commonly used around the world since they are more easy to understand and compare than the English unit.

Ann [662]

I attached a free body diagram for a better understanding of this problem.

We start making summation of Moments in A,

\sum M_A = 0

P(6cos\theta)-981(4cos\theta)=0

P=654N

Then we make a summation of Forces in Y,

\sum F_y = 0

654+R-981 = 0

R=327N

At the end we calculate the angle with the sin.

sin\theta = \frac{3m}{4m+2m+2m} = \frac{3m}{8m}

\theta = 22.02\°
