Two window washers, Bob and Joe, are on a 3.00 m long, 395 N scaffold supported by two cables attached to its ends. Bob weighs 8

05 N and stands 1.00 m from the left end. Two meters from the left end is the 500 N washing equipment. Joe is 0.500 m from the right end and weighs 820 N. Given that the scaffold is in rotational and translational equilibrium, what are the forces on each cable

Answer:

- the forces on the left hand side is 1.038 kN

- the forces on the right hand side is 1.483 kN

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

Length of the scaffold = 3 m

weight of the scaffold = 395 N

Weight of Bob = 805 N and stands 1 m from the left end

weight of washing equipment = 500N and on sits 2 m from the left end

Weight of Joe = 820 N and stand 0.500 m from the right end

so the force on the left cable will be;

T_{left = \frac{1}{3m}[ (805 N)( (3-1) m) + ( 395 N )( \frac{3}{2} m) + ( 500 N )(1m ) + ( 820 N)( 0.500m ) ]

T_{left =  \frac{1}{3m}[ 1610 + 592.5 + 500 + 410 ]

T_{left =  \frac{1}{3m}[ 3112.5 ]

T_{left =  1037.5 N

T_{left =  1.038 kN

Therefore, the forces on the left hand side is 1.038 kN

On the right hand side;

T_{Right =  ( 805 N + 395 N + 500 N + 820 N ) - 1037.5 N

T_{Right =  2520 N - 1037.5 N

T_{Right =  1482.5 N

T_{Right =  1.483 kN

Therefore, the forces on the right hand side is 1.483 kN

liraira [26]

Answer:

2.7 s

Explanation:

The period of the motion of a massless loaded spring is given by

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

where m is the mass of the load and k is the force or spring constant.

Using values in the question and converting to appropriate units,

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{927\times10^{-3}\text{ kg}}{5 \text{ N/m}}}= 2.7\text{ s}

Energy can do blank or bring about change
Mrac [35]

Work

Explanation:

Energy can do work or bring about change.

Energy is simply the ability to do work. When work is done, changes occur in a body.

  • There are different forms of energy and they are all related to work done.
  • When work is done on a body, a force causes a change in that body.
  • Both potential and kinetic energy are the same as work done.
  • Energy is needed to do work.
  • Work is done when a body changes energy.
