Answer:

4.3 * 10 N

Explanation:

To calculate torque, we multiply the distance from the pivot by the perpendicular (the part of the force that acts at right angles to the displacement vector) component of the force to the displacement vector from the pivot.

torque  = distance from pivot *  perpendicular force

170 Nm= 0.4 m * F

F = 425 N = 4.3 * 10 N rounded off to two significant figures

Starting from rest, a 4.0-kg body reaches a speed of 8.0 m/a in 20 s. What is te net force acting on the body?
Strike441 [17]
The guy below is wrong!


F=ma
Where force = mass x acceleration

We dont have acceleration, a= change in velocity divided by the time taken.
a = v (final velocity) - u (initial) / t
a us 8-0 (at rest means u was 0) / 20 = 0.4

Using F=ma

F= mass x acceleration 
F= 4 x 0.4
F=1.6 N

In being served, a tennis ball is accelerated from rest to a speed of 31.6 m/s. The average power generated during the serve is
joja [24]

Answer:

The force acting on the ball is 92.4 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 31.6 m/s

The average power generated during the serve is 2920 W. Power generated by an object is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W is the work done, W = Fd

P=\dfrac{Fd}{t}

Since, v=\dfrac{d}{t}

So,

P=F\times v

F is the force acting on the ball

F=\dfrac{P}{v}\\\\F=\dfrac{2920\ W}{31.6\ m/s}\\\\F = 92.4\ N

So, the force acting on the ball is 92.4 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
