To make extra money during the summer, Mr. Garber, a 66.0-kg physics teacher, paints the outside of houses while sitting on a 5.

0-kg plank suspended by three vertical cables. What is the tension in each of the three cables?

The total mass of Mr. Garber and the plank is 71kg. We can find the tension in the cable by dividing the gravitational force by 3. So let's solve for the gravitational force.

F_{g} = (71kg)*(9.81m/s) = 696.51N

Next divide by three because the tension is split.

F_{T} = 696.51/3 = 232.17N

F_{T} = 232.17N

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 4.8 1010 m (inside the orbit
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Distance d_i = 4.8 \times 10^{10} \ m

Speed of the comet V_i = 9.1 \times 10^{4} \ m/s

At distance d_2 = 6 \times 10^{12} \ m

where;

mass of the sun = 1.98 \times 10^{30}

G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}

To find the speed V_f:

Using the formula:

E_f = E_i + W \\ \\  where; \  \  W = 0  \ \  \text{since work done by surrounding is zero (0)}

E_f = E_i + 0 \\ \\  K_f + U_f = K_i + U_i  \\ \\ = \dfrac{1}{2}mV_f^2 +  \dfrac{-GMm}{d^2} =  \dfrac{1}{2}mV_i^2+ \dfrac{-GMm}{d_i} \\ \\ V_f = \sqrt{V_i^2 + 2 GM \Big [  \dfrac{1}{d_2}- \dfrac{1}{d_i}\Big ]}

V_f = \sqrt{(9.1 \times 10^{4})^2 + 2 (6.67\times 10^{-11}) *(1.98 * 10^{30} ) \Big [  \dfrac{1}{6*10^{12}}- \dfrac{1}{4.8*10^{10}}\Big ]}

\mathbf{V_f =53.125 \times 10^4 \ m/s}

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.
Lesechka [4]

The top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it. Because the contact between the bolt and the   pliers working surface is less.

<h3>What is mechanical advantage ?</h3>

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, it is used to obtained efficiency of the given mechanical machine.

The efficiency to open the stubborn bolt depends upon the contact between the working surface of the pliers and the bolt.

The contact between the bolt and the top pair of pliers working surface is less. Its mechanical advantage is less.

Hence, the top pair of pliers failed to loosen a stubborn bolt, but the bottom pair successfully removed it.

To learn more about the mechanical advantage, refer to the link;

What are possible formulas for impulse? Check all that apply. J = Fdeltat J = StartFraction force over change in time EndFractio
Alex

<u>The possible formulas for impulse are as follows:</u>

J = FΔt

J = mΔv

J = Δp

Answer: Option  A, E and F

<u>Explanation:</u>

The quantity which explains the consequences of a overall force acting on an object (moving force) is known as impulse. It is symbolised as J. When the average overall force acting on an object than such products are formed and in given duration than the start fraction force over change in time end fraction J = FΔt.

The impulse-momentum theorem explains that the variation in momentum of an object is same as the impulse applied to it: J = Δp J = mΔv if mass is constant J = m dv + v dm if mass changes. Logically, the impulse-momentum theorem is equivalent to Newton second laws of motion which is also called as force law.

Answer:

A) Spherically symmetric about a point in the constellation Sagittarius and concentrated in that direction

Explanation:

The globular clusters are present mainly in the direction of Sagittarius with the center of the system of globular cluster being measured as a spherical cluster cloud such that the center of the Milky Way can be taken as being in the Sagittarius constellation
