A 220 kg crate hangs from the end of a rope of length L = 14.0 m. You push horizontally on the crate with a varying force F to m
kifflom [539]

<u>Answer</u>:

(a) magnitude of F = 797 N

(b)the total work done  W = 0

(c)work done by the gravitational force =  -1.55 kJ

(d)the work done by the pull  = 0

(e) work your force F does on the crate = 1.55 kJ

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Mass of the crate, m =  220 kg

Length of the rope, L = 14.0m

Distance, d =  4.00m

<u>(a) What is the magnitude of F when the crate is in this final position</u>

Let us first determine vertical angle as follows

=>Sin \theta = \frac{d }{L}

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{d}{L} =

Now substituting thje values

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{4}{12} =

=> \theta = Sin^{-1} \frac{1}{3}

=> \theta = Sin^{-1}(0.333)

=> \theta = 19.5^{\circ}

Now the tension in the string resolve into components

The vertical component supports the weight

=>Tcos\theta = mg

=>T = \frac{mg}{cos\theta}

=>T = \frac{230 \times 9.8 }{cos(19.5)}

=>T = \frac{2254 }{cos(19.5)}

=>T = \frac{2254 }{0.9426}

=>T =2391N

Therefore the horizontal force

F = TSin(19.5)

F = 797 N

b) The total work done on it

As there is no change in Kinetic energy

The total work done W = 0

<u>c) The work done by the gravitational force on the crate</u>

The work done by gravity

Wg = Fs.d = - mgh

Wg = - mgL ( 1 - Cosθ )

Substituting the values                                                            

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - cos(19.5) )

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 ( 1 - 0.9426) )

= -230 \times 9.8\times 12 (0.0574)

= -230 \times 9.8\times 0.6888

=  -230 \times 6.750

= -1552.55 J

The work done by gravity = -1.55 kJ

<u>d) the work done by the pull on the crate from the rope</u>

Since the pull  is perpendicular to the direction of motion,

The work done = 0

e)Find the work your force F does on the crate.

Work done by the Force on the crate

WF = - Wg  

WF = -(-1.55)

WF = 1.55 kJ

<u>(f) Why is the work of your force not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)</u>

Here the work done by force is not equal to F*d  

and it is equal to product of the cos angle and F*d

So, it is not equal to the product of the horizontal displacement and the answer to (a)

A 975-kg elevator accelerates upward at 0.754 m/s2, pulled by a cable of negligible mass. Find the tension force in the cable.
Zina [86]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.

According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So

\sum F = ma

T-mg = ma

Here,

T = Tension

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

a = Acceleration (upward)

Rearranging to find T,

T = m(g+a)

T = (975)(9.8+0.754)

T= 10290.15N

Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N

What is the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet of a 0.1 cm diameter? Assume that air is surrounding this droplet a
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the honey droplet, D = 0.1 cm

radius of the honey droplet, R = 0.05 cm = 0.0005 m

surface tension of honey, γ = 0.052 N/m

Apply Laplace's law for a spherical membrane with two surfaces

Gauge pressure =  P₁ - P₀ = 2 (2γ / r)

Where;

P₀ is the atmospheric pressure

Gauge pressure = 4γ / r

Gauge pressure = 4 (0.052) / (0.0005)

Gauge pressure = 416 Pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure in Pascals inside a honey droplet is 416 Pa
