1 answer:
Answer:
1. T₁ = 500 N
2. T₂ = 866 N
Explanation:
Please see attached photo for the diagram.
Thus, we can obtain obtained the value of T₁ and T₂ as follow:
1. Determination of T₁
Angle θ = 30
Hypothenus = 100 kg
Opposite = T₁ =?
Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus
Sine 30 = T₁ / 100
Cross multiply
T₁ = 100 × Sine 30
T₁ = 100 × 0.5
T₁ = 50 Kg
Multiply by 10 to express in Newton
T₁ = 50 × 10
T₁ = 500 N
2. Determination of T₂
Angle θ = 60
Hypothenus = 100 kg
Opposite = T₂ = ?
Sine θ = Opposite /Hypothenus
Sine 60 = T₂ / 100
Cross multiply
T₂ = 100 × Sine 60
T₂ = 100 × 0.8660
T₂ = 86.6 Kg
Multiply by 10 to express in Newton
T₂ = 86.6 × 10
T₂ = 866 N

Answer:
(a)
(b) It won't hit
(c) 110 m
Explanation:
(a) the car velocity is the initial velocity (at rest so 0) plus product of acceleration and time t1
(b) The velocity of the car before the driver begins braking is
The driver brakes hard and come to rest for t2 = 5s. This means the deceleration of the driver during braking process is
We can use the following equation of motion to calculate how far the car has travel since braking to stop
Also the distance from start to where the driver starts braking is
So the total distance from rest to stop is 352 + 88 = 440 m < 550 m so the car won't hit the limb
(c) The distance from the limb to where the car stops is 550 - 440 = 110 m
