8 0

Given:

Inclined at 15 degrees

Tension of 5000N

Mass of container 800kg

Required:

Mass of elephant

Solution:

F = mgcos(theta)

5000 = m (9.8m/s2)cos(15)

<span>M = 528.2kg</span>

A solid cylinder with a mass of 2.72 kg and a radius of 0.083 m starts from rest at a height of 4.20 m and rolls down a 88.7 ◦ s
Bingel [31]

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy ,    

             Potential energy = kinetic energy

   mgh = \frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \times I \times \omega^{2}

                  I = \frac{mr^{2}}{2}

          \omega = \frac{v}{r}

     mgh = [\frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2}] + [\frac{1}{2} \times (\frac{mr^{2}}{2}) \frac{v^{2}}{r^{2}}]

     mgh = [\frac{1}{2} \times mv^{2}] + [\frac{1}{4} \times mv^{2}]

             g \times h = \frac{3}{4} \times v^{2}

             9.8 \times 4.2 = \frac{3}{4} \times v^{2}

                  v = 7.4 m/s

thus, we can conclude that the translational speed of the cylinder when it leaves the incline is 7.4 m/s.

A 49-year-old female was referred for mammography, but she is very apprehensive after reading about the risk of ionizing radiati
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Mammography is the process in which low energy radiations are used to diagnose and screening. The purpose of this process is the early detection of the breast cancer. These low energy radiations may have some risks like damaging and burning of cells.  

In the current scenario, woman is apprehensive because she has read about the risks of using ionizing radiations. The radiographer should tell her the benefits of the mammography will outweigh its potential consequences. Screening, for instance, will let her know if she is suffering from breast cancer. Cancer is very dangerous disease as compare to very small burning.

In this way radiographer should handle the situation.

Two blocks a and b ($m_a&gt;m_b$) are pushed for a certain distance along a frictionless surface. how does the magnitude of the
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

the magnitude of the work done by the two blocks is the same.

Explanation:

The work done by block a on block b is given by:

W_a = F_a d

where Fa is the force exerted by block a on block b, and d is the distance they cover.

The work done by block b on block a is given by:

W_b = F_b d

where Fb is the force exerted by block b on block a, and d is still the distance they cover.

For Newton's third law, the force exerted by block a on block b is equal to the force exerted by block b on block a, therefore

F_a = F_b

and so

W_a=W_b

Determina el volumen de 450 g de alcohol
Rufina [12.5K]

Luego de utilizar la fórmula del volumen de un líquido encontramos que si el acohol tiene 450 gramos entonces su volumen es de

La fórmula del volumen de la densidad de un líquido es la siguiente:

Densidad= Masa / Volumen

Volumen =Masa / Densidad

Es conocido que la densidad del alcohol es 789 kg/m³, y como sabemos por dato que tiene 450gr el siguiente paso es la sustitución:

Volumen=0.45/ 789

Volumen = 0,00057 m³
