A heavy rope, 50 ft long, weighs 0.6 lb/ft and hangs over the edge of a building 120 ft high. Approximate the required work by a

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Exercise (a)

The work done in pulling the rope to the top of the building is 750 lb·ft

Exercise (b)

The work done in pulling half the rope to the top of the building is 562.5 lb·ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Exercise (a)

The given parameters of the rope are;

The length of the rope = 50 ft.

The weight of the rope = 0.6 lb/ft.

The height of the building = 120 ft.

We have;

The work done in pulling a piece of the upper portion, ΔW₁ is given as follows;

ΔW₁ = 0.6Δx·x

The work done for the second half, ΔW₂, is given as follows;

ΔW₂ = 0.6Δx·x + 25×0.6 × 25 = 0.6Δx·x + 375

The total work done, W = W₁ + W₂ = 0.6Δx·x + 0.6Δx·x + 375

∴ We have;

W = $2 \times \int\limits^{25}_0 {0.6 \cdot x} \, dx + 375= 2 \times \left[0.6 \cdot \dfrac{x^2}{2} \right]^{25}_0 + 375 = 750$

The work done in pulling the rope to the top of the building, W = 750 lb·ft

Exercise (b)

The work done in pulling half the rope is given by W₂ as follows;

$W_2 = \int\limits^{25}_0 {0.6 \cdot x} \, dx + 375= \left[0.6 \cdot \dfrac{x^2}{2} \right]^{25}_0 + 375 = 562.5$

The work done in pulling half the rope, W₂ = 562.5 lb·ft

I. Tell whether each statement is TRUE or FALSE. Refer to the figure below. Write your answer on the space provided.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

1. TRUE

2. TRUE

3. TRUE

4. TRUE

5. FALSE

6. TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the diagram, we have that m∠2 and m∠7 are alternate interior angles

If m∠2 = 70° and m∠7 = 70°, then we have;

m∠2 = 70° = m∠7

m∠2 = m∠7

Therefore, the alternate interior angles of the lines l₁, and l₂ are equal, and therefore, the lines l₁ and l₂ are parallel, l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

2. If m∠3 = 90° and m∠7 = 90°, therefore, the angle formed by the intersection of l₃ and l₂ = 90°

Therefore l₃ ⊥ l₂

TRUE

3. m∠5 and m∠7 are corresponding angles

If m∠5 = 85° and m∠7 = 85°, then, m∠5 = m∠7

Therefore, the corresponding angles formed by the lines l₁ and l₂ are equal, therefore;

l₁ ║ l₂

TRUE

4. Whereby we have, m∠1 = m∠5, we get;

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180° by sum of angles on a straight line

∴ m∠1 + m∠5 = m∠1 + m∠1 = 2·m∠1 = 180°

m∠1 = 180°/2 = 90°

∴ m∠1 = 90° = m∠5, and l₃ ⊥ l₁

TRUE

5. m∠1 and m∠8 are alternate exterior angles

If m∠1 = 98° and m∠8 = 82°

∴ m∠1 ≠ m∠8 and l₁ ∦ l₈

FALSE

6. Given that l₁║ l₂, then the angle formed between l₁ and l₃ will be equal to th angle formed between l₂ and l₃

Therefore;

If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ ⊥ l₁, then l₃ ⊥ l₂

(If l₁║ l₂, and l₃ is perpendicular to l₁, then l₃ is also perpendicular to l₂)

TRUE
