A boat with a horizontal tow rope pulls a waterskier. She skis off to the side, the rope makes an angle of 15° with the forward

direction of motion. If the tension in the rope is 180 N, how much work does the rope two on the scare during the forward displacement of 300 m?

Answer:

<h3>13,976.23Joules</h3>

Explanation:

Workdone by the rope is expressed using the formula;

W = Fd sin(theta)

F is the tension in the rope = 180

d is the displacement = 300m

theta is the angle of inclination = 15°

Substitute the given parameters into the formula;

W = 180(300)sin15

W = 54000sin 15

W = 13,976.23

Hence the workdone by the rope is 13,976.23Joules

It is night. Someone who is 4 feet tall is walking away from a street light at a rate of 8 feet per second. The street light is
KiRa [710]

Answer: 4 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

height of man=4 ft

speed of person v=8 ft/s

height if street light=12 ft

Let x be the distance between person and street light and y be the length of his shadow

From diagram

as the two triangle ADE and ABC are similar therefore we can say that

\frac{4}{12}=\frac{y}{x+y}

\frac{1}{3}=\frac{y}{x+y}

x+y=3y

x=2y

differentiate above Equation w.r.t time we get

\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=2\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=\frac{8}{2}=4 ft/s

An object in circular motion has velocity that is constantly changing. The direction of the acceleration is
Keith_Richards [23]
<h2>Answer: Toward the center of the circle.</h2>

This situation is characteristic of the uniform circular motion , in which the movement of a body describes a circumference of a given radius with constant speed.  

However, in this movement the velocity has a constant magnitude, but its direction varies continuously.

Let's say \vec{V} is the velocity vector, whose direction is perpendicular to the radius r of the trajectory, therefore   the acceleration \vec{a} is directed toward the center of the circumference.
