Find the acceleration of the system and the tension in the ropes for the system shown. The table mass is 30 kg and the hanging m

marusya05 [52]

The system's tension is 616 N and acceleration is 5.6 $m / s^{2}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

From newton’s second law of motion which state that net force acting on a body is product of mass of a body and acceleration of a body which is given as,

$F_{n e t}=m_{t o t} \times a$

Where,

$F_{n e t}$ is net force acting on body

$m_{\mathrm{tot}}$ is mass of body

a is acceleration of body

Given values

Table mass (m) = 30 kg

Hanging mass (m) = 40 kg

$a=\frac{F_{n e t}}{m_{\mathrm{tot}}}=\frac{m \times g}{m_{\mathrm{tot}}}$

Put the value for m = hanging mass = 40 kg and $g=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , we get

$a=\frac{40 \times 9.8}{30+40}=\frac{392}{70}=5.6 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

The tension in the ropes, $T=(m \times g)+(m \times a)$

Here, m as hanging mass

T = tension, N or $k g m / s^{2}$

m = mass, kg

g = gravitational force, $9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

a = acceleration, $m / s^{2}$

$T = (40 \times 9.8)+(40 \times 5.6) = 392+224 = 616 N$

Truck drivers approaching a steep hill that they must climb often increase their speed. What good does this do, if any?

Inga [223]

Um, this doesn't make any sense. By climbing a hill, you are decreasing your momentum and kinetic energy, so it slows you down. The only positive, is after you have climbed the hill, you have more potential energy, and it will be released once you go down the hill, but you will not be as fast as if you ignored the hill.

5) A person holds a 1.7 kg bucket and lets it move down at

Elena L [17]

Answer:

12.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of bucket = 1.7kg

Height = 75cm = 0.75m

Unknown;

Work done on the bucket by the person = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the work done equation;

Work done = force x distance = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

Now, insert parameters and solve ;

Work done = 1.7 x 9.8 x 0.75 = 12.5J

A lady bug is sitting on the bottom of a can while you twirl it overhead on a string that is 65.0

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The linear speed of the ladybug is 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the angular speed of the lady bug. This is given by:

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

where

T is the period of revolution

The period of revolution is the time taken by the ladybug to complete one revolution: in this case, since it does 1 revolution every second, the period is 1 second:

T = 1 s

Therefore, the angular speed is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{1 s}=6.28 rad/s$
