A gymnast of mass 70.0 kg hangs from a vertical rope attached to the ceiling. You can ignore the weight of the rope and assume t

hat the rope does not stretch. Use the value 9.81m/s2 for the acceleration of gravity. Calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast hangs motionless on the rope.

Answer:

T = 686.7N

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law in this case there is no acceleration,

      ∑ F = ma

      T -W = 0

The gymnast's weight is

     W = mg

We clear and calculate the tension

     T = mg

     T = 70 9.81

     T = 686.7N

The air that flows over the top part of an airplane's wing moves faster than the air that flows across the bottom. This faster m
kaheart [24]
As an airplane moves through the air, its wings cause changes in the speed and pressure of the air moving past them. These changes result in the upward force called lift.

The Bernoulli principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in the pressure exerted by the fluid.

A wing is shaped and tilted so the air moving over it moves faster than the air moving under it. As air speeds up, its pressure goes down. So the faster-moving air above exerts less pressure on the wing than the slower-moving air below. The result is an upward push on the wing—lift!

It takes 160 kj of work to accelerate a car from 24.0 m/s to 27.5 m/s. what is the car's mass?
ankoles [38]
Work-Energy :W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
Vo = 24.0 m/s Initial speed 
 Vf = 27.5 m/s  Final speed 

W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
160 kj = 1/ 2 m ( 27.5^2  -24.0 ^2)
160kj =  4680 x m
convert kilo joules to jeoules                     160000 j = 4689 xm
m = 160000 j/4689
m = 34.18 kg
