A uniform horizontal beam 4.0 m long and weighing 200 N is attached to the wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rota

te. It is supported by a cable that makes an Angle of 53 degrees with the horizontal. If the person of weight 350 N stands 1.50 m from the wall. Find the magnitude of the tension T in the cable. (Show your workout instead of giving the final answer).

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in the cable, T is 1,064.315 N

Explanation:

Here we have

Length of beam = 4.0 m

Weight = 200 N

Center of mass of uniform beam = mid-span = 2.0 m

Point of attachment of cable = Beam end = 4.0 m

Angle of cable = 53° with the horizontal

Tension in cable = T

Point at which person stands = 1.50 m from wall

Weight of person = 350 N

Therefore,

Taking moment about the wall, we have

∑Clockwise moments = ∑Anticlockwise moments

T×sin(53) = 350×1.5 + 200×2

T = 850/sin(53)  = ‭1,064.315 N.

Starting from rest, the distance a freely-falling object will fall in 0.50 second is?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

1.23 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance covered by a free-falling object starting from rest in a time t is

y=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, we have

t = 0.50 s

So the distance covered is

y=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(0.50 s)^2=1.23 m

The electric field vector acts in the same direction as the force F vector if q is positive and in the opposite direction if q i
Contact [7]

Answer: Electric field vector is created by an electric force of a charged particle.

Explanation: The direction of the field vector can be determined by applying Coulomb’s Law which explains the electric force between charge particles. If q is positive the force is repulsive, to a test charge ( which is positive always ) and if q is negative the force is attractive to a test charge.

a 5kg block on a rough horizontal surface is attached to a light spring (force constant=1.6kN/m). the block passes through its e
natima [27]

Answer:

2.12 J

Explanation:

Initial kinetic energy = final elastic energy + work by friction

KE = EE + W

KE = ½ kx² + W

5 J = ½ (1600 N/m) (0.06 m)² + W

W = 2.12 J

A rocket with a mass of 62,000 kg (including fuel) is burning fuel at the rate of 150 kg/s and the speed of the exhaust gases is
mezya [45]

Answer:

h≅ 58 m

Explanation:

GIVEN:

mass of rocket M= 62,000 kg

fuel consumption rate =  150 kg/s

velocity of exhaust gases v= 6000 m/s

Now thrust = rate of fuel consumption×velocity of exhaust gases

=6000 × 150 = 900000 N

now to need calculate time t = amount of fuel consumed÷ rate

= 744/150= 4.96 sec

applying newton's law

M×a= thrust - Mg

62000 a=900000- 62000×9.8

acceleration a= 4.71 m/s^2

its height after 744 kg of its total fuel load has been consumed

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

h= \frac{1}{2}4.71\times4.96^2

h= 58.012 m

h≅ 58 m

5. Salt is often spread on roads during winter to prevent ice from forming. Do you think sugar would
Margaret [11]

Answer:

No because sugar is more sweet and it would not have the benefits of salt. Think of it like how people used to put salt on meat to preserve it. Would they put sugar on? No they would not because salt is a combination of things that sugar does not have.
