Answer:

T = 18.529 KN

Explanation:

We are given that;

Mass; m = 1683 kg

Upwards, acceleration; a = 1.2 m/s²

Downwards, acceleration due to gravity; g = 9.81 m/s²

Time; t = 2.75s

Now, The tension in the cable exerts a force up while gravity exerts a force down. The mass has an upward acceleration and thus, there are no horizontal forces.

We will take up as positive.

Thus,

Fnet is given as; F = T - W

W = mg while F = ma. and so,

ma = T - mg

Where t is Tension in cable.

Thus,

T = ma + mg

T = m(a + g)

T = 1683(1.2 + 9.81)

T = 1683(11.01) = 18529N = 18.529 KN

Answer:

the tension is 18513N

Explanation:

Given that

mass = 1683kg

acceleration = 1.2m/s^2

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

T-mg =   ma

T = ma + mg

T = m(a +g)

T = 1683 kg(1.20 m/s2 + 9.8)

T = 1683 (11)

T = 18513N

therefore, the tension is 18513N

A rectangular block weighs 240 N. the area of the block in contact with the floor is 20 cm2.calculate the pressure on the floor(
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

12 N/cm²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted by the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) =.?

Weight and force has the same unit of measurement. Thus, we force applied is equivalent to the weight of the block. Thus,

Force (F) = Weight (W) of block = 240 N

Force (F) = 240 N

Finally, we shall determine the pressure on the floor as follow:

Force (F) = 240 N

Area (A) = 20 cm²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F/A

P = 240 / 20

P = 12 N/cm²

Therefore, the pressure on the floor is 12 N/cm².

A car moving at 10.0 m/s encounters a depression in the road that has a circular cross-section with a radius of 30.0 m. What is
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

F = 789 Newton

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of the car, v = 10 m/s

Radius of circular path, r = 30 m

Mass of the passenger, m = 60 kg

To find :

The normal force exerted by the seat of the car when the it is at the bottom of the depression.

Solution,

Normal force acting on the car at the bottom of the depression is the sum of centripetal force and its weight.

N=mg+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

N=m(g+\dfrac{v^2}{r})

N=60\times (9.81+\dfrac{(10)^2}{30})

N = 788.6 Newton

N = 789 Newton

So, the normal force exerted by the seat of the car is 789 Newton.

Which term describes the point when two objects reach the same temperature and there is no longer a transfer of energy through h
yaroslaw [1]
The term you need to know is equilibrium. Technically it means that heat gained = heat lost. Normally in beginning chemistry classes the evidence for this condition is a stable temperature.

an athlete whirls a 7.00 kg hammer tied to the end of a 1.3 m chain in a horizontal circle the hammer moves at the rate of 1.0 r
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 1.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is the motion of a body that transverse a circular path.

Data

mass = 7 kg

radius = r = 1.3 m

angular rate = w = 1.0 rev/s

centripetal acceleration = a = ?

Formula

a = rw²

Substitution

a = (1.3)(1)²

Simplification and result

a = 1.3 m/s²
