Part A.

If there is a constant speed, therefore the net force is zero.

Forces acting are the:

1. Weight

2. Upward force exerted by the rope which is opposite in direction but the magnitude is to the force which is acting downwards exerted on the rope.

∑Force = pulling force - weight = 0

Weight = mg

Hence,

F (pulling force) = mg

Substituting the values,

F (pulling force) = 65 × 9.81

F (pulling force) = 637.65 Newton

____________________________________________________________

Part B.

F = ma

10% increase in the force = 1.10 ₓ 637.65

10% increase in the force = 701.415

Therefore,

701.415 = 65 ₓ a

a = 701.45/65

a = 10.8 m/s²

Consider the free body diagrams as shown in the file attached.

Let the acc of system is a. <span>
For the washer T+N-m1g=m1a ............................(1)
For the bucket T-N-m2g=m2a ............................(2)
</span>
(A)
a=0 Eqns (1) and (2) become T+N-m1g=0 T-N-m2g=0 Adding and rearranging, T=(m1+m2)/2g T=325N <span>
(B)
</span> We are specified the value of T here as 325+32.5=357.5N eqns (1)and (2) become 357.5+N-m1g=m1a 357.5-N-m2g=m2a Adding, 715-(m1+m2)g=(m1+m2)a

Solve for 'a'

Describe how gps data are used in the study of certain animals
zheka24 [161]

GPS also known as Global positioning system is a satellite-based radio -navigation system used for many purposes, animal tracking being one of them.

In GPS tracking, a GPS tag is placed on the animal. This picks up signals from special satellites and the data is stored on-board the tag or transmitted to the user through a communication network.

These tags provide very accurate location estimations for animals. Thus it helps scientists and other wildlife observers with the accurate locations of animals and helps them in their studying and thesis work.

As the pulses interfere destructively there is a point in time when the string is perfectly straight. Which of the following sta
uysha [10]

According to the statement we can deduce that the resulting amplitude of the wave pulse is zero when there is a destructive interference of two pulses and the chain is straight. At this point the potential energy will be zero, therefore when applying the energy conservation theorem, the potential energy must be equal to the kinetic energy and be conserved. The potential energy will be totally transferred as kinetic energy and therefore that will be the only energy present in the string.

Thus, the option C is correct.
