A box with the mass of 15 kg is lifted to a shelf, how much force is needed?

Physics
1 answer:
viva [34]3 years ago
5 0
The object has a mass of 15 kilograms. Therefore, it weighs 147 newtons on Earth, where gravitational acceleration is 9.8 meters per second per second. To counteract gravity, the acting force needs to be at least 147 newtons, It has to move 3 meters upward. When multiplying force by distance, the product comes to 441 joules, where joules are the standard unit of work.

In a crash test, a truck with mass 2100 kg traveling at 22 m/s smashes head-on into a concrete wall without rebounding. The fron
slega [8]

Answer:

a)   v_average = 11 m / s, b)  t = 0.0627 s

, c)    F = 7.37 10⁵ N

, d)   F / W = 35.8

Explanation:

a) truck speed can be found with kinematics

         v² = v₀² - 2 a x

The fine speed zeroes them

           a = v₀² / 2x

           a = 22²/2 0.69

           a = 350.72 m / s²

The average speed is

           v_average = (v + v₀) / 2

           v_average = (22 + 0) / 2

           v_average = 11 m / s

b) The average time

          v = v₀ - a t

          t = v₀ / a

          t = 22 / 350.72

          t = 0.0627 s

c) The force can be found with Newton's second law

             F = m a

             F = 2100 350.72

             F = 7.37 10⁵ N

.d) the ratio of this force to weight

             F / W = 7.37 10⁵ / (2100 9.8)

             F / W = 35.8

.e) Several approaches will be made:

- the resistance of air and tires is neglected

- It is despised that the force is not constant in time

- Depreciation of materials deformation during the crash

A uniform plank of length 5.0 m and weight 225 N rests horizontally on two supports, with 1.1 m of the plank hanging over the ri
lawyer [7]

Answer:

x = 0.6034 m

Explanation:

Given

L = 5 m

Wplank = 225 N

Wman = 522 N

d = 1.1 m

x = ?

We have to take sum of torques about the right support point.  If the board is just about to tip, the normal force from the left support will be going to zero.  So the only torques come from the weight of the plank and the weight of the man.

∑τ = 0  ⇒     τ₁ + τ₂ = 0  

Torque come from the weight of the plank = τ₁

Torque come from the weight of the man = τ₂

⇒  τ₁ = + (5 - 1.1)*(225/5)*((5 - 1.1)/2) - (1.1)*(225/5)*((1.1)/2) = 315 N-m (counterclockwise)

⇒  τ₂ = Wman*x = 522 N*x   (clockwise)

then

τ₁ + τ₂ = (315 N-m) + (- 522 N*x) = 0

⇒  x = 0.6034 m

On a playground, there is a merry‑go‑round. In order to get it moving, Bonnie applies a force of 31 N31 N . The merry‑go‑round m
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque is 263.5 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Applied force = 31 N

Distance from the axis = 8.5 m

She applies her force perpendicularly to a line drawn from the axis of rotation

So, The angle is 90°

We need to calculate the torque

Using formula of torque

\tau=Fd\sin\theta

Where, F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

\tau=31\times8.5\sin90

\tau= 263.5\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the torque is 263.5 N.
