Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.

A tennis player tosses a tennis ball straight up and then catches it after 1.77 s at the same height as the point of release. (a
Bogdan [553]

(a) 9.8 m/s^2, downward

There is only one force acting on the ball while it is in flight: the force of gravity, which is

F = mg

where

m is the mass of the ball

g is the gravitational acceleration

According to Newton's second law, the force acting on the ball is equal to the product between the mass of the ball and its acceleration, so

F = mg = ma

which means

a = g

So, the acceleration of the ball during the whole flight is equal to the acceleration of gravity:

g = -9.8 m/s^2

where the negative sign means the direction is downward.

(b) v = 0

Any object thrown upward reaches its maximum height when its velocity is zero:

v = 0

In fact, at that moment, the object's velocity is turning from upward to downward: that means that at that instant, the velocity must be zero.

(c) 8.72 m/s, upward

The initial velocity of the ball can be found by using the equation:

v = u + at

Where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

a = g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t is the time at which the ball reaches the maximum height: this is half of the time it takes for the ball to reach again the starting point of the motion, so

t=\frac{1.77 s}{2}=0.89 s

So we can now solve the equation for u, and we find:

u=v-at=0-(-9.8 m/s^2)(0.89 s)=8.72 m/s

(d) 3.88 m

The maximum height reached by the ball can be found by using the equation:

v^2 - u^2 = 2ad

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u = 8.72 m/s is the initial velocity

a = g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

d is the maximum height reached

Solving the equation for d, we find

d=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{0^2-(8.72 m/s)^2}{2(-9.8 m/s^2)}=3.88 m

a vertical solid steel post 29cm in diameter and 2.0m long is required to support a load of 8200kg, ignore the weight of the pos
erik [133]

Answer:

The stress is  \sigma  =  1.218*10^{6} \  N/m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The diameter of the post is  d =  29 \ cm  =  0.29 \  m

   The length is L  =  2.0 \  m

    The weight of the loading mass

Generally  the  radius of the post is mathematically represented as

     r =  \frac{0.29}{2}

=>   r = 0.145 \  m

Generally the area of the post is  

       A =  \pi r^2

=>     A =  3.14 *  0.145 ^2

=>     A =  0.066 \ m^2

Generally the weight exerted by the load is mathematically represented as

        F =  m  *  g

=>      F =  8200  *  9.8

=>      F =  80360 \  N

Generally the stress is mathematically represented as

         \sigma  =  \frac{F}{A}

=>      \sigma  =  \frac{80360 }{0.066}

=>      \sigma  =  1.218*10^{6} \  N/m^2

A helicopter pulls upward by means of a rope on a 250 kg crate to lift it UNIFORMLY. What is the net force on the crate?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The net force = 0

Explanation:

The given information includes;

The mass of the crate = 250 kg

The way the helicopter lifts the crate = Uniformly (constant rate (speed), no acceleration)

In order to pull the crate upwards, the helicopter has to provide a force equivalent to the weight of the crate keeping the helicopter on the ground.

The weight of the crate = The mass of the crate × The acceleration due gravity acting on the crate

The weight of the crate, F_w↓ = 250 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 2,452.5 N

The force the helicopter should provide to just lift the crate, F_{(helicopter)}↑ = The weight of the crate = 2,452.5 N

The net force, F_{(net)} = F_{(helicopter)}↑ - F_w↓ = 2,452.5 N - 2,452.5 N = 0

The net force = 0.
