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 rock is thrown upward with a velocity of 22 meters per second from the top of a 25 meter high cliff, and it misses the cliff o
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The rock will reach 9 m from the ground at eaxactly 5.06 s after it was initially thrown upwards.

Explanation:

We will use the equations of motion for this.

u = initial velocity of the rock = 22 m/s

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

y = vertical position of the rock at a time t = 9 m

y₀ = initial height of the rock = 25 m

t = time it takes for the rock to reach height of 9 m.

(y-y₀) = ut + 0.5gt²

(9 - 25) = 22t + 0.5(-9.8)t²

- 14 = 22t - 4.9t²

4.9t² - 22t - 14 = 0

solving this quadratic equation,

t = 5.055 s or - 0.565 s

Since time cannot be negative,

t = 5.055 s = 5.06 s

Hope this Helps!!!

ra1l [238]

Answer:

- Peat soil

- Loamy soil

- Clay soil

Explanation:

Peat soil is dark, highly decomposed organic matter found in soil.

Loamy soil is a mixture of materials that holds moisture and drains well and also contains coarse grains and allows water to drain quickly.

Clay soil contains medium grains and retains water. Also it contains fine grains and has little space for water.

A pendulum on plant X is 0.25 meters long and the period is 4 seconds. What is “g” on Planet X?
Monica [59]

Answer:

The value of g = 0.6168 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

On a planet X,

Length of the pendulum(L) = 0.25 meters,

Time period of the pendulum(T) = 4 seconds.

We have to find the 'g' value on the planet.

The 'g' value on a planet can be found by a pendulum with help of the formula,

T = 2π × \frac{\sqrt{L} }{\sqrt{g} }

From this,  g = 4π² × \frac{L}{T^{2} }

Using the above formula and substituting the values,we get,

g = 0.6168 m/s².

You have just moved into a new apartment and are trying to arrange your bedroom. You would like to move your dresser of weight 3
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

W = 0J

Explanation:

The work done by the dresser is described as

W = f d (cos θ)

F has been given as the weight of this dresser. And it is 3500 N

d = 0 m

When you put these values into the equation

W = 3500 x 0 x cosθ

W = 0 J

This value tells us that the work done on this dresser is zero. No work has been done. Therefore the last option answers the question.
