Featured snippet from the web
Work is the force on the object as it changes a distance. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. For example, if you carry a load up the stairs. Now that load will have potential energy that can be transformed into kinetic energy and so on

A uniform ladder 5.0 m long rests against a frictionless, vertical wall with its lower end 3.0 m from the wall. The ladder weigh

DiKsa [7]

Answer:(a)360N,(b)171N,(c)2.702m

Explanation:

(a)Maximum Friction Force = $\mu \left ( N\right )=0.4\times \left ( 740+160\right )$

=360 N

$cos\theta =\frac{3}{5}$

$sin\theta =\frac{4}{5}$

(b)Moment about Ground Point

$740\times 1\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta$

$N_1tan\theta =1140$

$N_1=171 N$

$N_1=f=171 N$

(c)

$740\times x\times cos\theta +2.5\times 160\times cos\theta -N_15sin\theta$

Here maximum friction force can be 360 N

Therefore $N_1=360 N$

Where x is the maximum distance moved by man along the ladder

$360\times 5\times \frac{4}{3}=740x+160\times 2.5$

740x=2000

x=2.702m

A cylindrical metal can is to have no lid. It is to have a volume of 125π in3. What height minimizes the amount of metal used?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches

A skateboarder is accelerating forward. How would his acceleration change if he had more mass?

exis [7]

Answer:

If the force remains the same, the acceleration would decrease

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of an object is given by

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

where

F is the force applied to the object

m is the mass of the object

As we see from the formula, the acceleration a is inversely proportional to the mass, m. Therefore, if the force F remains constant, this means that if the mass of the skateboarder increases, then the acceleration will decrease.

Se necesita subir una carga de 500 kg (4900 N) a una altura de 1.5 m deslizándola sobre una rampa inclinada. ¿Qué longitud debe

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

4.22 m

Explanation:

Una rampa es una máquina que se utiliza para levantar un objeto con una fuerza menor a la que realmente necesitarías. Cuanto mayor sea la longitud de la rampa, menor será la magnitud de la fuerza necesaria para levantar el objeto.

Dado que:

altura de la rampa = 1.5 m, carga = 4900 N, fuerza aplicada = 1633.33 N.

La fórmula de la rampa se da como:

fuerza aplicada * longitud de la rampa = peso de la carga * altura de la rampa

1633.33 * longitud de la rampa = 4900 * 1.5

longitud de la rampa = 4900 * 1.5 / 1633.33

longitud de la rampa = 4.22 m
