Find the free-body diagram in attachment.

Explanation:

The free-body diagram of an object is a diagram representing all the forces acting on a body. Every force is represented using an arrow, where:

- The length of the arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force

- The direction of the arrow shows the direction of the force

For the monkey in this problem, we have two forces acting on it:

- The weight of the monkey, labelled as (mg), acting downward, where

m is the mass of the monkey

g is the acceleration of gravity

- The tension in the tree branch, labelled as T, which acts upward

The monkey is motionless: this means that its acceleration is zero, so the net force actin on it is zero - this means that the forces acting on the monkey, the weight and the tension, are balanced, therefore they are shown as two arrows of same length, but opposite direction.

How can i find the acceleration?(rope and grinder have no weight) *** sorry for my english

Finger [1]

The main formula to be used here is

Force = (mass) x (acceleration).

We'll get to work in just a second. But first, I must confess to you that I see
two things happening here, and I only know how to handle one of them. So
my answer will be incomplete, but I believe it will be more reliable than the
first answer that was previously offered here.

On the right side ... where the 2 kg and the 3 kg are hanging over the same
pulley, those weights are not balanced, so the 3 kg will pull the 2kg down, with
some acceleration. I don't know what to do with that, because . . .

At the same time, both of those will be pulled up by the 10 kg on the other side
of the upper pulley.

I think I can handle the 10 kg, and work out the acceleration that IT has.

Let's look at only the forces on the 10 kg:

-- The force of gravity is pulling it down, with the whatever the weight of 10 kg is.

-- At the same time, the rope is pulling it UP, with whatever the weight of 5 kg is ...
that's the weight of the two smaller blocks on the other end of the rope.

So, the net force on the 10 kg is the weight of (10 - 5) = 5 kg, downward.

The weight of 5 kg is (mass) x (gravity) = (5 x 9.8) = 49 newtons.

The acceleration of 10 kg, with 49 newtons of force on it, is

Acceleration = (force) / (mass) = 49/10 = 4.9 meters per second²

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 2.0 s.

a_sh-v [17]

The equations are analogous to that for linear movement:
acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
acceleration = (3000 rpm - 0 rpm) / 2.0 s
a) acceleration = 1500 rpm/s or 25 rp(s^2)
For the displacement
displacement = initial velocity*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2
displacement = (0)*(2 s) + (0.5)(25 rps^2)*(2 s)^2
b) displacement = 50 revolutions

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

10.58 ft

Explanation:

Force, F = 1.4 N

Diameter of membrane = 7.4 mm

radius of membrane, r = 7.4 / 2 = 3.7 mm = 3.7 x 10^-3 m

Area, A = 3.14 x (3.7 x 10^-3)^2 = 4.3 x 10^-5 m^2

Density, d = 1.03 x 10^3 kg/m^3

Pressure at depth, P = h x d x g

Let h be the depth.

Pressure = force / Area

h x 1.03 x 10^3 x 9.8 = 1.4 / (4.3 x 10^-5)

h = 3.225 m = 10.58 ft

Thus, the depth of water is 10.58 ft.
