15. A car travelling towards the right has a mass of 1332 kg and has a speed of 25 m/s. A truck is
swat32

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a car, m₁ = 1332 kg

The speed of the car, u₁ = 25 m/s (right)

The mass of a truck, m₂ = 3000 kg

The speed of the truck, u₂ = -15 m/s

The total momentum after the crash is given by :

p=m₁u₁ + m₂u₂

Put all the values,

P = 1332(25) + 3000(-15)

= −11700 kg-m/s

So, the total momentum after the crash is equal to 11700 kg-m/s and it is in the left direction.

A force Fof 40000 lbf is applied to rod AC the negative Y-direction. The rod is 1000 inches tall. A Force P of 25 lbf is applied
erastova [34]

Answer:

The answer is "effective stress at point B is 7382 ksi "

Explanation:

Calculating the value of Compressive Axial Stress:

\to \sigma y  =\frac{F}{A} = \frac{4 F}{( p d ^2 )} = \frac{(4 x ( - 40000 \ lbf))}{[ p \times (1 \ in)^2 ]} = - 50.9 \ ksi \\

Calculating Shear Transverse:

\to \frac{4v}{ 3 A} = \frac{4 (75 \ lbf + 25 \ lbf)}{ \frac{3 ( lni)^2}{4}}

        = \frac{4 (100 \ lbf)}{ \frac{3 ( lni)^2}{4}} \\\\ = \frac{400 \ lbf)}{ \frac{3 ( lni)^2}{4}} \\\\= 0.17 \ ksi

= R \times 200 \ in - P \times 100 \ in = 12500 \ lbf \times\  in

\to \sigma' =[ s y^2 +3( t \times y^2 + t yz^2 )] \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\

       = [ (-50.9)^2 +3((63.7)^2 +(0.17)^2 )] \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\=[2590.81+ 3(4057.69)+0.0289]\times \frac{1}{2}\\\\=[2590.81+12,173.07+0.0289] \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\=14763.9089\times \frac{1}{2}\\\\ = 7381.95445 \ ksi\\\\ = 7382 \ ksi

Thomas needs to move an 80 kg rock, but cannot lift it. He decides to use a
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The weight of the rock is W = mg = (80 kg) (10 m/s²) = 800 N.

The mechanical advantage is therefore 800 N / 200 N = 4.
