Answer:

In this case, a body of mass 5 kg kept at a height of 10 m. So the potential energy is given as 5 * 10 *10 = 500 J.

You are helping two friends from our class with a physics problem where a cart is pushed up a ramp. In examining the motion of t

stiks02 [169]

Answer: Acceleration will have 2 components, vertical and horizontal.

Net-vertical component can be positive, zero or negative depending upon the magnitude of the upward component of the applied acceleration.

Net-horizontal acceleration will be equal to the horizontal component of the applied acceleration.

Explanation:

Since acceleration is a vector quantity and the cart is being pushed up the ramp, the ramp would be at some angle to the horizontal and hence there will be vertical and horizontal components of acceleration.

For vertical acceleration:

If the magnitude of the upward component of the applied acceleration is greater than the value of the acceleration due to gravity then the net vertical acceleration will be upward because it will overtake the value of acceleration due to gravity.

In case the upward component of the applied acceleration is lesser than the value of the acceleration due to gravity then the net vertical acceleration will be downward.

For horizontal acceleration:

This component remains unaffected and is equal to the horizontal component of the applied acceleration because there is no other acceleration acting in the horizontal direction.

But the net acceleration will not be solely in the vertical or horizontal direction because the block has to move forward on the inclined ramp so there will always exist a horizontal and a vertical component making the net acceleration to parallel to the ramp in upward direction if the body is going up the ramp.

A steel bar of rectangular cross section (1.5 in. 2 3 .0 in.) carries a tensile load P (see fig- ure). The allowable stresses in

lukranit [14]

Explanation:

Value of the cross-sectional area is as follows.

A = $1.5 \times 2.30$

= 3.45 $in^{2}$

The given data is as follows.

Allowable stress = 14,500 psi

Shear stress = 7100 psi

Now, we will calculate maximum load from allowable stress as follows.

$P_{max} = \sigma_{a}A$

= $14500 \times 3.45$

= 50025 lb

Now, maximum load from shear stress is as follows.

$P_{max} = 2 \times \tau_{a} \times A$

= $2 \times 7100 \times 3.45$

= 48990 lb

Hence, $P_{max}$ will be calculated as follows.

$P_{max} = min((P_{max})_{\sigma}, (P_{max})_{\tau})$

= 48990 lb

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum permissible load $P_{max}$ is 48990 lb.

Give reasons. a) Sunlight does not fall on the ground where cloud forms shadow.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Sunlight passing through a cloud is scattered in various directions. Some photons eventually find their way out the bottom of the cloud, some are reflected upwards, and some are absorbed, serving to warm the cloud. Since only a fraction of the light makes it to ground level, you have a shadow.
