A 1130-kg car is held in place by a light cable on a smooth (frictionless) ramp. The cable makes an angle of 31.0° above the sur

face of the ramp, and the ramp itself rises at 25.0° above the horizontal. Determine the tension in the cable?

Answer:

T = 5163.89 N

Explanation:

Newton's first law:

∑F =0 Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the car on the ramp and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the car

W: Weight of the car : In vertical direction

FN : Normal force : perpendicular to the ramp

T :Tension force:  at angle of 31.0° above the surface of the ramp

Calculated of the Weight  of the car (W)

W = m*g   m: mass   g:acceleration due to gravity

W =   1130-kg* 9.8 m/s² = 11074 N

x-y weight components

Wx =  11074 N*sin 25.0° = 4680.07 N

Wy = 11074 N*cos 25.0° = 10036.45 N

x-y Tension components

Tx = T*cos 25.0°

Ty = T*sin 25.0°

Newton's first law:

∑Fx =0 Formula (1)

Tx-Wx = 0

T*cos 25.0° - 4680.07 = 0

T*cos 25.0° = 4680.07

T =  4680.07 / cos 25.0°

T = 5163.89 N

A steel drill making 180 rpm is used to drill a hole in a block of steel. The mass of the steel block and the drill is 180 g. If
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

a) 37.8 W

b) 2 Nm

Explanation:

180 g = 0.18 kg

We can also convert 180 revolution per minute to standard angular velocity unit knowing that each revolution is 2π and 1 minute equals to 60 seconds

180 rpm = 180*2π/60 = 18.85 rad/s

We can use the heat specific equation to find the rate of heat exchange of the steel drill and block:

\dot{E} = mc\Delta \dot{t} = 0.18*420*0.5 = 37.8 J/s

Since the entire mechanical work is used up in producing heat, we can conclude that the rate of work is also 37.8 J/s, or 37.8 W

The torque T required to drill can be calculated using the work equation

E = T\theta

\dot{E} = T\dot{\theta} = T\omega

T = \frac{\dot{E}}{\omega} = \frac{37.8}{18.85} = 2 Nm

Catalytic ozone destruction occurs in the stratosphere by a two-step reaction:
Sladkaya [172]
Catalytic ozone destruction occurs in the stratosphere where the reactions involving bromine, chlorine, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen gases form compounds that destroy the ozone layer. The reactions uses a catalyst (speeds up the reaction) in a two step reaction. considering chlorine the reactions appears as follows;
step 1
 Cl + O3 = ClO + O2 
 step 2
ClO + O = Cl + O2 
Where by chlorine is released to destroy the ozone layer, this takes place many times even with the other elements (hydrogen, bromine, nitrogen) and the end result is a completely destroyed Ozone layer

A 49 N coconut is in a 15 m tree. What is te potential energy of the coconut?
eduard

Answer:

735 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight (W) = 49 N

Height (h) = 15 m

Potential energy =?

Potential energy is simply defined as the product of weight of the object and height to which the object is raised. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Potential energy = weight × height

With the above formula, we can obtain the potential energy of the coconut as follow:

Weight (W) = 49 N

Height (h) = 15 m

Potential energy =?

Potential energy = weight × height

Potential energy = 49 × 15

Potential energy = 735 J

Thus, the potential energy of the coconut is 735 J
