Answer:

The ceramic tile will stand the force of 5 N.

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the area (A) of the ceramic tile

We will use the formula for the area of a square.

A = 50 cm × 50 cm = 2500 cm²

Step 2: Convert "A" to in²

We will use the conversion factor 1 in² = 6.45 cm².

2500 cm² × 1 in²/6.45 cm² = 3.9 × 10² in²

Step 3: Calculate the pressure (P) exerted by a force (F) of 5 N

We will use the following expression.

P = F/A

P = 5 N / 3.9 × 10² in² = 0.013 N/in²

Since the pressure exerted would be less than the maximum pressure resisted (40 N/in²), the ceramic tile will stand the force of 5 N.

Paul’s 10 kg baby sister Susan sits on a mat. Paul pulls the mat across the floor using a rope that is angled 30° above the floo

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The speed of Susan is 2.37 m/s

Explanation:

To visualize better this problem, we need to draw a free body diagram.

the work is defined as:

$W=F*d*cos(\theta)$

here we have the work done by Paul and the friction force, so:

$W_p=F_p*d*cos(0)\\F_p=30N*cos(30^o)=26N\\W_p=26*3*(1)=78J$

$W_f=F_f*d*cos(180)\\F_f=\µ*(10*9.8-30N*sin(30^o))=16.6N\\W_p=16.6*3*(-1)=50J$

Now the change of energy is:

$W_p-W_f=\frac{1}{2}m*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(78J-50J)}{10kg}}\\v=2.37m/s$

8. When a 100 N bag of nails hangs motionless from a single vertical strand of rope, how many newtons of tension are exerted in

Svetllana [295]

If the bag is motionless, then it's not accelerating up or down.
That fact right there tells you that the net vertical force on it
is zero. So the sum of any upward forces on it is exactly equal
to the downward gravitational force ... the bag's "weight".

If the bag is suspended from a single rope, then the tension
in the rope must be equal to the 100-N weight of the bag.

And if there are four ropes holding it up, then the sum of
the four tensions is 100N. If the ropes have been carefully
adjusted to share the load equally, then the tension is 25N
in each rope.
