When using fall arrest, free fall must be kept at or below how many feet

Engineering
1 answer:
FromTheMoon [43]3 years ago
5 0
6 feet
Explanation: A few extra feet of free fall can significantly increase the arresting force on the employee, possibly to the point of causing injury. Because of this, the free fall distance should be kept at a minimum, and, as required by the standard, in no case greater than 6 feet (1.8 m).

After a 65 newton weight has fallen freely from rest a vertical distance of 5.3 meters, the kinetic energy of the weight is
inysia [295]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the weight is 344.5 J

Explanation:

Given that:

Force = F = 65 newton

distance = d = 5.3 meters

We have to find change in kinetic energy ΔK.E

Now we know that, initially kinetic energy was 0 So the formula we use will be:

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

Mathematically,

W =  ΔK.E

As we know W = F . d and  ΔK.E = K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

So by putting values:

F . d = K.E(final) - K.E(initial)

F . d = K.E(final)

As  K.E(initial) is 0 so by putting values of F and d

(65)* (5.3) =  K.E(final)

344.5 J =  K.E(final)

So the change in  K.E will also be 344.5 J

i hope it will help you!

What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley with 3 support ropes?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The mechanical advantage is 3 to 1

Explanation:

A frictionless pulley with three support ropes carries equal tension on each of the ropes thus;

Tension in each pulley rope = T

Total tension in the 3 ropes = 3 × T = 3·T

Direction of the tension forces on each rope = Unidirectional

Total force provided by the 3 ropes = 3·T

Therefore, a force, T, applied at the end of the rope will result in a lifting force of 3·T

Hence, the mechanical advantage = 3·T to T which is presented as follows;

Mechanical \ advantage = \dfrac{3 \cdot T}{T}  = \dfrac{3}{1}

The mechanical advantage = 3 to 1.
