The force of gravity is causing him to accelerate downwards, and the force of friction pulls him back. There’s also a normal force keeping him on the slide.

A football player kicks a football off a tee with a speed of 21 m/s at an angle of 51°. what is the horizontal component of the
stepan [7]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is approximately 13.22 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the kick which the football player gives the ball = 21 m/s

The angle of the path taken by the ball = 51°

The velocity can be represented vectorially, showing the vertical and horizontal components as follows;

v = 21 × cos(51°)·\hat i + 21 × sin(51°)·\hat j

Where we have;

The horizontal component of the velocity = 21 × cos(51°)

The vertical component of the velocity = 21 × sin(51°)

Therefore;

The horizontal component of the velocity = 21 × cos(51°) ≈ 13.22 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity ≈ 13.22 m/s.

What effort force must be applied to lift an 864 N load with a fixed pulley?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

864N (B)

Explanation:

Using newtons first law of motion: ∑F = 0

F(gravity) - F(applied) = 0

F(gravity) = F(applied) = 864N

A package of aluminum foil contains 50. Ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 7.0 oz . Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. W
kumpel [21]

We know density = Mass / Volume

So Volume = Mass/Density

Volume =  Area * Thickness

Area = 50 ft^2 = 4.645152 m^2\\ \\Mass = 7 oz = 0.198447 kg\\ \\Density = 2.70 g/cm^3 = 2700 kg/m^3\\ \\Substituting \\ \\4.645152 *t = \frac{0.198447}{2700} \\ \\t = 1.58*10^{-5}m = 1.58*10^{-2}mm

So the approximate thickness of the foil in millimeters = 1.58*10^{-2}mm

A rope can withstand a maximum tension of 75 N before snapping . What maximum speed can you spin a 6.0 kg rock in a vertical cir
butalik [34]

Answer:

The maximum speed of the stone without breaking the rope is 4.33 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

maximum tension the rope can withstand, T = 75 N

mass of the rock, m = 6 kg

radius of the circle, r = 1.5 m

As the stone spin in a vertical circle, it performs circular motion with centripetal acceleration directed inwards. The maximum centripetal force during this motion will be equal to maximum tension on the rope.

F_c,_m_a_x = T = \frac{MV_m_a_x^{2} }{r}\\\\V_m_a_x^{2} = \frac{Tr}{M}\\\\V_m_a_x = \sqrt{\frac{75*1.5}{6}}\\\\V_m_a_x  = 4.33 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed of the stone without breaking the rope is 4.33 m/s.

The inside of a race car often looks very different from the inside of a normal car. Race car teams often remove seats and other
Digiron [165]

Explanation:

A race car's main target is how to have rapid acceleration by scaling its speed. Acceleration of car is mostly a product of the force of the car engine.

According the newtons second law"The acceleration of body in motion depends on two main variables, the net force acting on it and the mass".

   It is also written mathematically as:

    F = m x a

F is the net force produced by the engine

m is the mass of the car

a is the acceleration.

Re-writing the equation:

 Now   Acceleration = \frac{Force }{mass}

We can see that acceleration is directly related to increasing force but inversely proportional to the mass.

A race car needs to have a good acceleration so as to attain top speed.

  The more the mass, the less the acceleration.

This is why extra weight like the seats are expunged.
