A Person whose weight is 5.20 x 10^2 N is being pulledup

Physics
1 answer:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of Person W=5.20\times 10^{2} N

Cave is h=35.1 m deep

Breaking stress T=569 N

Net Force on Person

F_{net}=569-520=49 N

a_{net}=\frac{F_{net}}{\frac{W}{g}}

a_{net}=\frac{49}{\frac{520}{9.8}}

a_{net}=0.923 m/s^2

The shortest time such that the person can be taken out of cave

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

h=distance moved

t=time

a=acceleration

35.1=0+\frac{1}{2}(0.923)(t)^2

t^2=76.05

t=\sqrt{76.05}

t=8.72\ s

To counter the effects of centrifugal force and reduce vehicle traction it is important to to counter the effects of centrifugal
tatiyna
Answer:  Add an incline or grade to the road track.

Explanation:
Refer to the figure shown below.

When a vehicle travels on a level road in a circular path of radius r, a centrifugal force, F, tends to make the vehicle skid away from the center of the circular path.
The magnitude of the force is
F = mv²/r
where
m = mass of the vehicle
v =  linear (tangential) velocity to the circular path.

The force that resists the skidding of the vehicle is provided by tractional frictional force at the tires, of magnitude
μN = μW = μmg
where
μ = dynamic coefficient of friction.

At high speeds, the frictional force will not overcome the centrifugal force, and the vehicle will skid.

When an incline of θ degrees is added to the road track, the frictional force is augmented by the component of the weight of the vehicle along the incline.
 Therefore the force that opposes the centrifugal force becomes
μN + Wsinθ = W(sinθ + μ cosθ).

A 125-kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.50 m/s by pushing off with her legs from a 1900-kg space capsule
ryzh [129]

(a) 0.165 m/s

The total initial momentum of the astronaut+capsule system is zero (assuming they are both at rest, if we use the reference frame of the capsule):

p_i = 0

The final total momentum is instead:

p_f = m_a v_a + m_c v_c

where

m_a = 125 kg is the mass of the astronaut

v_a = 2.50 m/s is the velocity of the astronaut

m_c = 1900 kg is the mass of the capsule

v_c is the velocity of the capsule

Since the total momentum must be conserved, we have

p_i = p_f = 0

so

m_a v_a + m_c v_c=0

Solving the equation for v_c, we find

v_c = - \frac{m_a v_a}{m_c}=-\frac{(125 kg)(2.50 m/s)}{1900 kg}=-0.165 m/s

(negative direction means opposite to the astronaut)

So, the change in speed of the capsule is 0.165 m/s.

(b) 520.8 N

We can calculate the average force exerted by the capsule on the man by using the impulse theorem, which states that the product between the average force and the time of the collision is equal to the change in momentum of the astronaut:

F \Delta t = \Delta p

The change in momentum of the astronaut is

\Delta p= m\Delta v = (125 kg)(2.50 m/s)=312.5 kg m/s

And the duration of the push is

\Delta t = 0.600 s

So re-arranging the equation we find the average force exerted by the capsule on the astronaut:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=\frac{312.5 kg m/s}{0.600 s}=520.8 N

And according to Newton's third law, the astronaut exerts an equal and opposite force on the capsule.

(c) 25.9 J, 390.6 J

The kinetic energy of an object is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass

v is the speed

For the astronaut, m = 125 kg and v = 2.50 m/s, so its kinetic energy is

K=\frac{1}{2}(125 kg)(2.50 m/s)^2=390.6 J

For the capsule, m = 1900 kg and v = 0.165 m/s, so its kinetic energy is

K=\frac{1}{2}(1900 kg)(0.165 m/s)^2=25.9 J

What is the acceleration of the box?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a=4,32m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 - F2

= 12-1.2

= 10.8N

m=2.5kg

Fnet =ma

10.8=2.5a then divide both sides by 2.5 to get acceleration
