Most lightning happens inside a cloud, but sometimes it happens between the cloud and the ground. A build up of positive charge builds up on the ground beneath the cloud, attracted to the negative charge in the bottom of the cloud. The ground's positive charge concentrates around anything that sticks up-trees, lightning conductors, even people. The positive charge from the ground connects with the negative charge from the clouds and a spark of lightning strikes.

The winch takes in cable at the constant rate of 130 mm/s. if the cylinder mass is 115 kg, determine the tension in cable 1. neg
nikitadnepr [17]
By applying Newton's second law of motion;

ma = mg - T

Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.

For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0

Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N

Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.

You apply a 150 N push on a frictionless sled over a period of 2 seconds. Show that the sled’s momentum changes by 300 kg·m/s.
Savatey [412]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force applied = 150N

Time  = 2s

Unknown:

Momentum change = ?

Solution:

The momentum change of a body is the difference between its initial and final momentum.

Momentum is the same as the impulse exerted on a body which is the product of force  and time

   Momentum = mass x velocity = force x time

The body initially at rest has a momentum of 0, as the momentum changes;

      Momentum change = Final momentum - initial momentum

                                         = f x t - (0)

                                         = (150 x 2) - 0

     Momentum change = 300kgm/s

Since the body is a frictionless surface, the net force is the same as the applied force.
