A 49 kg person is being dragged in their sleeping bag to the lake by a 593 N

Physics
1 answer:
crimeas [40]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

f = 485.62 N

Explanation:

Since, the bag is moving with some acceleration. Hence, the unbalanced force will be given as:

Unbalanced Force = Horizontal Component Applied Force - Frictional Force

Unbalanced Force = Fx - f

But, from Newtons Second Law of Motion:

Unbalanced Force = ma

comparing the equations:

ma = Fx - f

f = F Cos θ - ma

where,

f = frictional force  = ?

F = Applied force  = 593 N

m = mass of person = 49 kg

a = acceleration = 0.57 m/s²

θ = Angle with horizontal = 30°

Therefore,

f = (593 N)(Cos 30°) - (49 kg)(0.57 m/s²)

f = 513.55 N - 27.93 N

<u>f = 485.62 N</u>

What material parameters determine resistivity?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

It depends upon cross sectional area and length of material

Explanation:

The resistance of any material is given by R=\frac{\rho l}{A}, here \rho is the resistivity of material , l is length of material and A is cross sectional area

So resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

So resistuivity of any material depends upon area of cross section and length of material

If cross sectional area will be more then resistivity will be more. And is length of the material will be more then resistivity will be less

A common misconception is that an object always moves when a force acts on it. Why is this statement incorrect? Explain the conc
dsp73

Answer:

The statement is incorrect because, a force acting on an object does not necessarily have to produce motion.

People have the misconception that when a force acts on an object it always produces motion

Explanation:

The statement is incorrect because, a force acting on an object does not necessarily have to produce motion. It could be in static equilibrium where the net force is zero and produces not motion. The body could also be in dynamic equilibrium when  no net force acts on it moving at a constant velocity. But here we are concerned with static equilibrium since the body does not move at all.

People have the misconception that when a force acts on an object it always produces motion and, we have seen from the above tat its not always true.

The gauge pressure at the bottom of a cylinder of liquid is 0.30atm. The liquid is poured into another cylinder with twice the r
likoan [24]

Answer:

P_g' = 0.075 atm

Explanation:

Gauge pressure at the bottom of the cylinder depends on the height of water in the cylinder

So here we can say that

P_g = \rho g h

now when liquid is filled to height "h" in base area "A" then gauge pressure of the liquid at the bottom is given as

P_g = 0.30 atm

now we put the whole liquid into another cylinder with twice radius of the first cylinder

So area becomes 4 times

now by volume conservation we can say that if area is increased by 4 times then height of liquid will decrease by 4 times

so we have

h' = \frac{h}{4}

so gauge pressure is given as

P_g' = \frac{0.30}{4} = 0.075 atm
