If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign

Physics
1 answer:
kvasek [131]4 years ago
3 0
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

You throw a 5.5 g coin straight down at 4.0 m/s from a 25-m-high bridge.
yuradex [85]

<u><em>Answer</em></u>

A) 1,347.5 Joules

B) 22.49 m/s


<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

<u>Part A</u>

The work done by the gravity is known as potential energy.

It is given by;

P.E = mgh

Where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the vertical height.

P.E = 5.5 × 9.8 ×25

= 1,347.5 Joules.

<u>Part B</u>

Using the Newton's third Law of motion,

V² = U² +2as

Where v is final velocity, u is the initial velocity, and s is the displacement of the stone.

V² = 4² + (2×9.8×25)

= 16 + 490

= 506

V = √506

= 22.49 m/s

An automobile tire having a temperature of −1.6 ◦C (a cold tire on a cold day) is filled to a gauge pressure of 22 lb/in2 . What
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

25.8 lb/in²

Explanation:

Gay-Lussac's law tells us that given an ideal gas of a certain mass has a constant volume, the pressure exerted on the sides of its container is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} } \\\\\frac{22}{-1.6+273.15} =\frac{P_{2} }{45+273.15} \\\\P_{2} = \frac{22*318.15}{271.55} = 25.8lb/in^{2}
