The flagpole is held vertical by two ropes. The first of these ropes has a tension in it of 100 N and is at an angle of 60° to t

he flagpole. The other rope has a tension T, as shown. The resultant force is down the pole and of magnitude 200 N. In the space below, using a scale of 1 cm = 20 N, draw a scale drawing to find the value of the tension T. Clearly label 100 N, 200 N and T on your drawing

Answer:

T₂ = 123.9 N,  θ = 66.2º

Explanation:

To solve this exercise we use the law of equilibrium, since the diaphragm does not appear, let's use the adjoint to see the forces in the system.

The tension T1 = 100 N, we create a reference frame centered on the pole

X axis

       T₁ₓ - T_{2x} = 0

        T_{2x}= T₁ₓ

Y axis y

      T_{1y} + T_{2y} - 200N = 0

      T_{2y} = 200 -T_{1y}

let's use trigonometry to find the component of the stresses

         sin 60 = T_{1y} / T₁

         cos 60 = t₁ₓ / T₁

         T_{1y} = T₁ sin 60

         T1x = T₁ cos 60

         T_{1y}y = 100 sin 60 = 86.6 N

         T₁ₓ = 100 cos 60 = 50 N

for voltage 2 it is done in the same way

         T_{2y} = T₂ sin θ

         T₂ₓ = T₂ cos θ

we substitute

         

           T₂ sin θ= 200 - 86.6 = 113.4

           T₂ cos θ = 50              (1)

to solve the system we divide the two equations

           tan θ = 113.4 / 50

           θ = tan⁻¹ 2,268

           θ = 66.2º

we caption in equation 1

           T₂ cos 66.2 = 50

           T₂ = 50 / cos 66.2

           T₂ = 123.9 N

1kg slab of concrete loses 12,000j of heat when it cools from 30 Celsius to 26 Celsius. Determine the specific heat capacity of
OleMash [197]

The specific heat capacity of concrete is 3.0 J/(g^{\circ}C)

Explanation:

When a certain amount of energy Q is supplied/given off to/from a sample of substance with mass m, the temperature of the substance increases/decreases by an amount \Delta T, according to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature of the substance

In this problem, we have:

m = 1 kg = 1000 g is the mass of the concrete slab

Q = -12,000 J is the amount of energy lost by the slab

\Delta T = 30-26= -4^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the slab

Solving the equation for C_s, we find the specific heat capacity of concrete:

C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}=\frac{-12,000}{(1000)(-4)}=3.0 J/(g^{\circ}C)

A speed boat travels from the dock to the first buoy a distance of 20 meters in 18 seconds it began the trip at a speed of 0 m/s
Lunna [17]

Answer:

1.11 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the boat is an example of accelerated motion, since the velocity is not constant. However, we don't need to find the acceleration, because we are only interested in the average velocity of the boat, which is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the total distance covered and t the time taken. In this problem, the boat covered a distance of d = 20 m and it takes t = 18 s, therefore the average velocity is

v=\frac{20 m}{18 s}=1.11 m/s
