A stunt man is being pulled, at a constant velocity, along a rough road by a cable attached to a truck. The cable is parallel to

the ground. The mass of the stunt man is 109 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the stunt man is 0.870. Find the tension in the cable.

Answer:

the tension in the cable= 929.33N

Explanation:

the tension in the cable is equivalent to the frictional force experienced between the road and the stunt man

coefficient of friction= μ=\frac{F_{r} }{N}

μ=0.870

N= Normal force =m × g

m= 109kg

g= acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²

F_{r}= μ × N

F_{r}= μ × m × g

F_{r}= 0.870 × 109 × 9.8

F_{r}=929.33N

The tension in the cable is 929.33N

Two containers (A and B) are in thermal contact with an environment at temperature T = 280 K. The two containers are connected b
zmey [24]

Answer:

The maximum amount of work is  W = 1563.289 \ J

Explanation:

From  the question we are told that

   The temperature of the environment is  T = 280\ K

    The volume of container A is  V_A = 2 m^3

    Initially the number of moles  is  n = 1.2 \ moles

     The volume of container B is V_B = 3.5 \ m^3

     

At equilibrium of the gas the maximum work that can be done on the turbine is mathematically represented as

             W =  P_A V_A  ln[ \frac{V_B}{V_A} ]

Now from the Ideal gas law

          P_A V_A =  nRT

So substituting for P_A V_A in the equation above

          W =  nRT ln [\frac{V_B}{V_A} ]

Where R is the gas constant with a values of  R =  8.314 \  J/mol

Substituting values we have that

            W = 1.2 * (8.314) * (280) * ln [\frac{3.5}{2} ]

          W = 1563.289 \ J

Cool facts about satellites ???

Satellites travel at 18,000 miles per hour. ...

A satellite gets better fuel economy than a Prius.

If you put all of the data that our satellites collect in a year on DVDs, it would form a stack nearly 4 times the height of the Empire State Building.

There are over 2,500 satellites in orbit around the Earth.

PolarNik [594]

These objects would be classified as extreme trans Neptunian object (ETNO).

Explanation:

ETNO’s are the objects lying beyond the planet Neptune and orbiting the Sun. They follow a highly eccentric path which is tilted. ETNO has been grouped into three major according to their respective perihelia.  

Within this region (beyond Neptune’s orbit), a hypothetical planet has been discovered. It was discovered following its gravitational effect on the other objects of Kuiper Belt (region beyond the orbit of the Neptune- the last planet of our Solar system)

The Planet is assumed to be around 2 times the Earth’s size and around 10 times heavier than Earth.

What type of acceleration does an object moving with constant speed in a circular path experience?Select one:A) constant acceler
olga_2 [115]

ANSWER:

D) centripetal acceleration.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When a body performs a uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity vector changes at every instant. This variation is experienced by the linear vector, due to a force called centripetal, directed towards the center of the circumference that gives rise to the centripetal acceleration.

Therefore, the answer is centripetal acceleration.
