A black widow spider hangs motionless from a web that extends vertically from the ceiling above. If the spider has a mass of 1.2

7 g, what is the tension in the web
Physics
1 answer:
leva [86]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Tension = 0.012 N

Explanation:

If the black widow spider is hanging vertically motionless from the ceiling above. Then, the weight of the spider must be balancing the tension in the spider web. Therefore,

Tension = Weight

Tension = mg

where,

m = mass of spider = 1.27 g = 0.00127 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

Tension = (0.00127 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>Tension = 0.012 N</u>

A cat is chasing a mouse across a 1.3 m tall dining table. The mouse darts to the side and the cat accidentally slides off, land
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

1) 0.51 seconds.

2) 1.45 m/s.

Explanation:

given, height from which cat falls = 1.3 m

we know that, s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at².

here if we consider cat moment only in downward direction,

intial velocity of cat in downward direction , u = 0.

so, time, t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

⇒ t = \sqrt{\frac{2(1.3)}{9.81} } = 0.51 seconds.

t = 0.51 seconds.

now, consider cat moment only in forward direction

s = ut , since acceleration is zero in forward direction

⇒ u = \frac{s}{t}.

so, u = \frac{0.75}{0.51} = 1.45 m/s .

(Please help, will give thanks + brainliest answer)
Bond [772]

Answer:

A) 1.9m/s

Explanation:

Use the equation v=d/t

The time is 10 seconds. The distance is more complicated because it’s a circle so u use the equation for circumference C=2•pi•r. So you just do the circumference over time and get the answer. Hope this helps

What is hydraulic pressure​
Gnesinka [82]

The total thrust, expressed in pounds or tons, that the hydraulic-feed mechanism on a drill can impose on a drill string; also, the pressure of the fluid within the hydraulic cylinders, generally expressed in pounds per square inch. Ref: Long.

Hydraulic pressure is the force imparted per unit area of a liquid on the surfaces which it has contact. Liquids are incompressible, and as such, when a load acts

. Where does a body have more weight at the pole on
kherson [118]

Answer:

a body weigh more at the equator since earth is not completely round it is an oblate spheroid – a sphere with a bulge around the equator. that is why the places at the equator are more in contact with the core rather than the places at the poles.
