1 mile = 1.609344 km
x miles = 95 km
x = 95 : 1.609344 = 59.03
Answer: 53.09 mph

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Beryllium

Beryllium is an alkaline metallic element that is highly toxic. It is known for its sugary sweet taste and some of its common uses are in X-rays and fluorescent lights.

Beryllium : A very thorough and technical site about this mineral.

Chromite

Chromite is the ore of chromium and is a very hard metal, and diamond is the only thing harder. This hardness is what allows a chrome finish to take a high polish.

Determine a formula for the magnitude of the force F exerted on the large block (Mc) so that the mass Ma does not move relative

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))

Explanation:

Given there are three blocks of masses $M_{a}$ , $M_{b}$ and $M_{c}$ (ref image in attachment)

When all three masses move together at an acceleration a, the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *a ................(equation 1)

Also it is given that $M_{a}$ does not move with respect to $M_{c}$ , which gives tension T is exerted on pulley by $M_{a}$ only, Hence tension T is

T = $M_{a}$ *a ..........(equation 2)

There is also also tension exerted by $M_{b}$ . There are two components here: horizontal due to acceleration a and vertical component due to gravity g. Thus tension is given by

T = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$ ................(equation 3)

From equation 2 and 3, we get

$M_{a}$ *a = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$

Squaring both sides we get

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * ( $a^{2}$ + $g^{2}$ )

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ )+ ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ )

( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ ) * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$

$a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ /( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ )

Taking square root on both sides, we get acceleration a

a = $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ )

Hence substituting the value of a in equation 1, we get

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))
