Answer:

The net force is 10 [N] acting to the left

Explanation:

To solve this type of problem we must make a sum of the forces acting on the cart, since the forces are vectors, we know that vectors can be added, In this way forces that go in the same direction are added and forces in opposite directions are subtracted.

FL = force to the left = - 15 [N]

FR = force to the right = 5 [N]

FT = Resultant force [N]

- 15 + 5 = FT

FT = - 10 [N]

The negative sign tells us that the force acts to the left.

An input for of 80 N is used to lift an object weighing 240 N with a system of pulleys. How far must the rope around the pulleys
sammy [17]

Answer:

4.2 m

Explanation:

Note: If energy is conserved, i.e no work is done against friction

Work input = work output.

Work output = Force output × distance,

Work input = force input × distance moved moved.

Therefore,

input force×distance moved = output force × distance moved........................Equation 1

Given: input force = 80 N, output force = 240 N, output distance = 1.4 m

Let input distance = d

Substitute into equation 1

80×d = 240×1.4

80d = 336

d = 336/80

d = 4.2 m.

Thus the rope around the pulley must be pulled 4.2 m
