The cart will be pulled to the right by the hanging mass, so by Newton's second law, the net force on the cart is

<em>T</em> - 25 N = (8 kg) <em>a</em>

where <em>T</em> is the tension in the rope and <em>a</em> is the acceleration.

The hanging mass has a net force of

(6 kg) <em>g</em> - <em>T</em> = (6 kg) <em>a</em>

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s².

Adding these equations together eliminates <em>T</em>, and we can solve for <em>a</em> :

(<em>T</em> - 25 N) + ((6 kg) <em>g</em> - <em>T </em>) = (14 kg) <em>a</em>

33.8 N = (14 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = (33.8 N) / (14 kg) ≈ 2.4 m/s²

Then the tension in the rope is

<em>T</em> - 25 N = (8 kg) (2.4 m/s²)

<em>T</em> ≈ 25 N + 19.31 N ≈ 44 N

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(a)  104 N

(b) 52 N

Explanation:

Given Data

Angle of inclination of the ramp: 20°

F makes an angle of 30° with the ramp

The component of F parallel to the ramp is Fx = 90 N.  

The component of F perpendicular to the ramp is Fy.

(a)  

Let the +x-direction be up the incline and the +y-direction by the perpendicular to the surface of the incline.  

Resolve F into its x-component from Pythagorean theorem:  

Fx=Fcos30°

Solve for F:  

F= Fx/cos30°  

Substitute for Fx from given data:  

Fx=90 N/cos30°

   =104 N

(b) Resolve r into its y-component from Pythagorean theorem:

     Fy = Fsin 30°

   Substitute for F from part (a):

     Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)  

          = 52 N

Which is the one factor that adds to the greenhouse effect? 1. a decrease in the amount of dust in the atmosphere 2. a decrease
lukranit [14]

Answer:

an increase in gasses that absorb heat

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.

Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.

A body of mass 5.0 kg is suspended by a spring which stretches 10 cm when the mass is attached. It is then displaced downward an
Dominik [7]

Answer:

position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

Explanation:

given data

mass = 5 kg

length = 10 cm = 0.1 m

displaced = 5 cm

to find out

position as a function of time

solution

we will apply here equilibrium that is

mass × g = k × length

put here value and find k

k = \frac{5*9.8}{.01}

k = 490 N/m

and ω is

ω = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

ω = \sqrt{\frac{490}{5} }

ω = 9.9

so here position w.r.t  time is

y = 0.05 × cosωt

y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

so position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t
