A man drags a 71-kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity by pulling on a strap attached to the bottom of the crate. The

crate is tilted 25° above the horizontal, and the strap is inclined 61° above the horizontal. The center of gravity of the crate coincides with its geometrical center, as indicated in the figure. Find the magnitude of the tension in the strap.

Answer:

T = 540 N   (to two significant digits)

Explanation:

Let the crate dimension L be from strap attachment to floor contact

Let T be the strap tension

sum moments about the floor contact point to zero

mg[½Lcos25] - Tsin61[Lcos25] + Tcos61[Lsin25] = 0

L is common to all terms, so divides out.

½(71)(9.8)cos25 = T(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25)

T = (71)(9.8)cos25 / (2(sin61cos25 - cos61sin25))

T = 536.428020...

A bus accelerates to 60 m/s to the east in 10 s. What is the buses acceleration? 2. A car traveling at 10.0 m/s to the west acce
professor190 [17]

Answers:

1) a=6\frac{m}{s^{2}}

2) t=8s

Explanation:

1) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of Velocity V in time t :  

a=\frac{V}{t}  (1)

A body also has acceleration when it changes its direction.

In this case we have a bus with a velocity of 60m/s to the east, that accelerates in a time 10s. So, we have to find the bus's acceleration:

a=\frac{60m/s}{10s}  (2)

a=6m/s^{2}  (3)  This is the bus's accelerration

2) Now we have a car that accelerates 2m/s^{2}  to the west in order to reach a speed of 16m/s in the same direction, and we have to find the time t it takes to the car to reach that velocity.

Therefore we have to find  t from (1):

t=\frac{V}{a}  (4)

t=\frac{16m/s}{2m/s^{2}}  (5)

Finally:

t=8s  (6)

How much is the plane's acceleration while breaking if it takes 15 s for its velocity
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

A. 4.67 m/s²

Explanation:

u = 145 m/s

v = 75 m/s

t = 15 s

a = v - u / t

= 145 - 75 / 15

= 4.67 m/s²

Hope this helped...

Assume the motions and currents mentioned are along the x axis and fields are in the y direction. (a) does an electric field exe
matrenka [14]
<span> (a) does an electric field exert a force on a stationary charged object? 
Yes. The force exerted by an electric field of intensity E on an object with charge q is
</span>F=qE
<span>As we can see, it doesn't depend on the speed of the object, so this force acts also when the object is stationary.

</span><span>(b) does a magnetic field do so?
No. In fact, the magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field of intensity B on an object with  charge q and speed v is
</span>F=qvB \sin \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of v and B.
As we can see, the value of the force F depends on the value of the speed v: if the object is stationary, then v=0, and so the force is zero as well.

<span>(c) does an electric field exert a force on a moving charged object? 
Yes, The intensity of the electric force is still
</span>F=qE
<span>as stated in point (a), and since it does not depend on the speed of the charge, the electric force is still present.

</span><span>(d) does a magnetic field do so?
</span>Yes. As we said in point b, the magnetic force is
F=qvB \sin \theta
And now the object is moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force F this time is different from zero.

<span>(e) does an electric field exert a force on a straight current-carrying wire?
Yes. A current in a wire consists of many charges traveling through the wire, and since the electric field always exerts a force on a charge, then the electric field exerts a force on the charges traveling through the wire.

</span><span>(f) does a magnetic field do so? 
Yes. The current in the wire consists of charges that are moving with a certain speed v, and we said that a magnetic field always exerts a force on a moving charge, so the magnetic field is exerting a magnetic force on the charges that are traveling through the wire.

</span><span>(g) does an electric field exert a force on a beam of moving electrons?
Yes. Electrons have an electric charge, and we said that the force exerted by an electric field is
</span>F=qE
<span>So, an electric field always exerts a force on an electric charge, therefore on an electron beam as well.

</span><span>(h) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes, because the electrons in the beam are moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force
</span>F=qvB \sin \theta
<span>is different from zero because v is different from zero.</span>

A spring gun consists of a spring inside a plastic tube with spring constant, k. The spring can be compressed 20 cm from its equ
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m

Explanation:

According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted

The force F=ke

Where k=spring constant

e= Extention produced

h=2m

Given that

e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m

m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg

But F=mg

Ignoring air resistance

assuming g=9.81m/s²

Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring

E=1/2ke²=mgh

Substituting our values to find k

First we make k subject of formula

k=2mgh/e²

k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²

K=3.921/0.01

K=392.4N/m
