Answer:
Explanation:
I hate these kinds of problems, luckily I can't understand how much the kinetic friction is for this , the words are all mixed around. and don't read well. Maybe this went through a translator program? My suggestion draw the free body diagram. so you can see where the forces are, and how they are acting. getting the free body diagram right.. usually makes these problems pretty straight forward. just do the steps and you get the answer.
Answer:
a) T = 608.22 N
b) T = 608.22 N
c) T = 682.62 N
d) T = 533.82 N
Explanation:
Given that the mass of gymnast is m = 62.0 kg
Acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s²
Thus; The weight of the gymnast is acting downwards and tension in the string acting upwards.
So;
To calculate the tension T in the rope if the gymnast hangs motionless on the rope; we have;
T = mg
= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)
= 608.22 N
When the gymnast climbs the rope at a constant rate tension in the string is
= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s²)
= 608.22 N
When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude
a = 1.2 m/s²
the tension in the string is T - mg = ma (Since acceleration a is upwards)
T = ma + mg
= m (a + g )
= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² + 1.2 m/s²)
= (62.0 kg) (11.01 m/s²)
= 682.62 N
When the gymnast climbs up the rope with an downward acceleration of magnitude
a = 1.2 m/s² the tension in the string is mg - T = ma (Since acceleration a is downwards)
T = mg - ma
= m (g - a )
= (62.0 kg)(9.81 m/s² - 1.2 m/s²)
= (62.0 kg)(8.61 m/s²)
= 533.82 N
Answer:
B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons
Explanation:
The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.
The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.
If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.
In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.
The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.
