Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.80×106 N , one at an angle 14.0 ∘ west of north,

and the other at an angle 14.0 ∘ east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.800 km toward the north. Part A What is the total work done by the two tugboats on the supertanker?

Answer:

W = 1,049 10⁹ J

Explanation:

Work is defined by the relation

         W = F. d = F d cos θ

where tea is the angle between the forces and the displacement.

The total work is the sum of the work of each tug.

Tug 1

       W₁ = F d cos θ₁

 

the angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

       θ₁ = 14 + 90 = 104º

           

tugboat 2

             W₂ = F d cos θ₂

             θ₂ = 14

we substitute

             W = F d cos θ₁ + F d cos θ₂

             W = F d (cos θ₁ + cos θ₂)

               

let's calculate

             W = 1.80 10⁶  800 (cos 104 + cos 14)

             W = 1,049 10⁹ J

beks73 [17]

Option B The thickness of the central portion of a thin conveying lens can be determined very accurately by using a micrometer screw gauge.

<h3>What can be measured using a micrometer screw gauge?</h3>

One micrometer of thickness can be measured with a micron micrometre screw gauge. A Use of Micrometer Screw Gauge as like example Upon turning the screw of the micrometer screw gauge four times, a 2 mm space is covered.

<h3>What purposes does a micrometer serve?</h3>

A tool known as a micrometer is used to measure solid objects’ lengths, thicknesses, and other dimensions precisely and linearly.

<h3>What is the micrometer screw gauge’s SI unit?</h3>

The SI symbol m is also known as a micron, which is an SI-derived unit of length equaling 1106 meters, where 106 is the SI standard prefix for the prefix “micro-.” A micrometer is one-millionth of a meter.

A 0.311 kg tennis racket moving 30.3 m/s east makes an elastic collision with a 0.0570 kg ball moving 19.2 m/s west. Find the ve
Troyanec [42]

The velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 0.311kg

u1 = 30.3m/s

m2 = 0.057kg

u2 = 19.2m/s

Since m2 is moving in opposite direction, u2 = -19.2m/s

Velocity of m1 after collision  = ?

Let the velocity of m1 after collision be v

After collision the momentum is conserved.

Therefore,

m1u1 - m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

v1 = (\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2})u1 + (\frac{2m2}{m1+m2})u2

v1 = (\frac{0.311-0.057}{0.311+0.057})30.3 + (\frac{2 X 0.057}{0.311 + 0.057}) X-19.2\\\\v1 = (\frac{0.254}{0.368} )30.3 + (\frac{0.114}{0.368}) X -19.2\\ \\v1 = 20.91 - 5.95\\\\v1 = 14.96

Therefore, the velocity of tennis racket after collision is 14.96m/s
