Question

Please help me find the answers!

Answer 1

Answer:

1. T₁ is approximately 100.33 N

T₂ is approximately -51.674 N

2. 230°F is 383.15 K

3. Part A

The total torque on the bolt is -4.2 N·m

Part B

Negative anticlockwise

Explanation:

1. The given horizontal force = 86 N

The direction of the given 86 N force = To the left (negative) and along the x-axis

(The magnitude and direction of the 86 N force = -86·i)

The state of the system of forces = In equilibrium

The angle of elevation of the direction of the force T₁ = 31° above the x-axis

The direction of the force T₂ = Downwards, along the y-axis (Perpendicular to the x-axis)

Given that the system is in equilibrium, we have;

At equilibrium, the sum of the horizontal forces = 0

Therefore;

T₁ × cos(31°) - 86 = 0

T₁ = 86/(cos(31°)) ≈ 100.33

T₁ ≈ 100.33 N

Similarly, at equilibrium, the sum of the vertical forces = 0

∴ T₁×sin(31°) + T₂ = 0

Which gives;

100.33 × sin(31°) + T₂ = 0

T₂ = -100.33 × sin(31°) ≈ -51.674

T₂ ≈-51.674 N

2. 230° F to Kelvin

To convert degrees Fahrenheit (°F) to K, we use;

$Degrees \ in \ Kelvin, K = (x^{\circ} F + 459.67) \times \dfrac{5}{9}$

Pluggining in the given temperature value gives;

$Degrees \ in \ Kelvin, K = (230^{\circ} F + 459.67) \times \dfrac{5}{9} = 383.15$

230°F = 383.15 K

3. Part A

Torque = Force × perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force

Therefore, the clockwise torque = 9 N × 0.4 m = 3.6 N·m (clocwise)

The anticlockeisre torque = 13 N × 0.6 m = 7.8 N·m (anticlockwise)

The total torque o the bolt = 3.6 N·m - 7.8 N·m = -4.2 N·m (clockwise) = 4.2 N·m anticlockwise

Part B

The torque is negative anticlockwise.
