Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop

es from the horses meet at a common point on the front of he barge. What is the resultant force exerted by the two horses if the angle between the rope is 60 degrees?

For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

kkurt [141]

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3, length 88.8 cm and diameter 2.30 cm fro
vichka [17]

Answer:

w = 28.25 N

Explanation:

To do this, we need to use two expressions.

First, to calculate the weight of any object, we use the 2nd law of newton. In this case, the weight is:

w = m*g  (1)

However we do not have the mass of the rod. We need to calculate that. To calculate the mass, we'll use the expression of density which is:

d = m/V  

From here, we solve for mass:

m = d * V   (2)

Finally, we can know the volume of the rod, because is cylindrical, therefore, the volume of a cylinder is:

V = π * r² * h   (3)

So, in resume, we need to solve for the volume of the rod, then, the mass ans finally the weight. Let's calculate the volume of the rod, converting the units of centimeter to meters, just dividing by 100:

diameter = 2.3 cm ---> radius = 2.3/2 = 1.15 cm -----> 0.0115 m

Length or height = 88.8 cm ----> 0.888 m

Replacing in (3):

V = π * (0.0115)² * 0.888

V = 3.69x10⁻⁴ m

Now, let's use (2) to calculate the mass:

m = 7800 * 3.69x10⁻⁴

m = 2.88 kg

Finally for the weight, we'll use expression (1):

w = 2.88 * 9.81

<h2>w = 28.25 N</h2><h2>And this is the weight of the rod.</h2>
