Answer:

τ = 34.5 N.m

Explanation:

The force applied by the mechanic is 230 N.

Thus, F = 230 N

Now, this force is applied in a counterclockwise manner while pushing perpendicularly at the end of the 0.15m long wrench.

Thus, r = 0.15 m

Formula for the torque in this case is;

τ = Fr sin θ

θ = 90° since mechanic pushed perpendicularly.

Thus;

τ = 230 × 0.15 × sin 90

τ = 34.5 N.m

A 45 kg wagon is being pulled with a rope that makes an angle of 38 degrees with the horizontal. The applied force is 410 N and
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

7.35m/s²

Explanation:

From the question we are not told what to find but we can as well find the acceleration of the wagon.

According to newton second law of motion

\sum F_x = ma_x\\Fm - Ff = ma_x\\Fm - \mu R = ma_x\\Fm- \mu mg = ma_x\\

Fm is the moving force = 410N

\mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.18

m is the mass = 45kg

g is the acceleration dur to gravity = 9.8m/s²

a is the acceleration of the wagon

Substitute the given data into the equation ang get ax

Fm- \mu mg = ma_x\\410 - (0.18)(9.8)(45) = 45a_x\\410 - 79.38 = 45a_x\\330.62 = 45a_x\\a_x = 330.62/45\\a_x = 7.35m/s^2\\

Hence the acceleration of the wagon is 7.35m/s²

a steel sphere and brass ring have diameter 25cm and 24.9cm at 15°C.If the sphere and the ring are heated together.what is the t
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Due to heat energy , metal expands . Formula for linear expansion is as follows .

L = l ( 1 + α Δt )

where L is expanded length , l is original length , α is coefficient of linear expansion and Δt is increase in temperature .

To pass the sphere through the ring , the diameter of both ring and sphere should be same after heating . Let after increase of temperature Δt , their diameter becomes same as L  . The linear coefficient of brass and steel are

20 x 10⁻⁶ and 12 x 10⁻⁶ respectively .

For steel sphere ,

L = 25 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

For brass ring

L = 24.9 ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

25 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt ) = 24.9 ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1.004( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt ) =  ( 1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1.004 + 12.0482 x 10⁻⁶ Δt  =   1 + 20 x 10⁻⁶ Δt

.004 = 7.9518 x 10⁻⁶ Δt

Δt  = 4000 / 7.9518

= 503⁰C.

final temp = 503 + 15 = 518⁰C  .
