Answer: The smallest effort = 300N
Explanation:
Using one of the condition for the attainment of equilibrium:
Clockwise moment = anticlockwise moments
900 × 1 = 3 × M
Where M = the weight of the strong man
3M = 900
M = 900/3 = 300N
Therefore, 300N is the smallest effort that the strongman can use to lift the goat
<span>Acceleration is the rate of
change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of
all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's
second law of motion. Calculations of such is straightforward, if we are given
the final velocity, the initial velocity and the total time interval. However, we are not given these values. We are only left by using the kinematic equation expressed as:
d = v0t + at^2/2
We cancel the term with v0 since it is initially at rest,
d = at^2/2
44 = a(6.2)^2/2
a = 2.3 m/s^2
