A rescue helicopter is lifting a man with 86 kg mass from a capsized boat by means of a cable and harness. What is the tension i

n the cable when the man is given an initial upward acceleration of 1.35 m/s2

The man is pulled upward by a net force of

∑ <em>F</em> = (86 kg) (1.35 m/s²) = 116.1 N

The net force is comprised of the tension <em>T</em> in the cable and the man's weight <em>W</em>, such that

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>T</em> - <em>W</em> = 116.1 N

<em>T</em> = (86 kg) (9.80 m/s²) + 116.1 N

<em>T</em> = 958.9 N ≈ 960 N

Nadusha1986 [10]
See coulomb's law. Force is inversely proportional to the distance squared. So if you multiply r by 2, the force is multiplied by (½)² = ¼.

Four objects are situated along the y axis as follows: a 1.99-kg object is at 2.99 m, a 2.96-kg object is at 2.57 m, a 2.43-kg o
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The center of mass for the object is  y_c = 1.063 \  m from the origin

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the first object is  m_1 =  1.99 \  kg

   The position of first object with respect to origin y_1 =  2.99 \ m

   The mass of the second object is  m_2 =  2.96 \  kg

   The position of second object with respect to origin y_2 =  2.57 \ m

   The mass of the third object is  m_3 =  2.43  \  kg

   The position of third object with respect to origin y_3 =  0 \ m

   The mass of the fourth object is  m_3 =  3.96  \  kg

   The position of fourth object with respect to origin y_3 =  -0.502  \ m

Generally the center of mass of the object along the x-axis is  zero  because all the mass lie on the y axis

Generally the location of the center mass of the object is mathematically represented as

    y_c = \frac{m_1 * y_1 + m_2 * y_2 + m_3 * y_3 + m_4 * y_4}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3 + m_4}

=>y_c = \frac{1.99 * 2.99 + 2.96 * 2.57 + 2.43 * 0 + 3.96 * (-0.502)}{1.99+ 2.96  + 2.43 + 3.96}

=>y_c = 1.063 \  m

A charge of 32.0 nC is placed in a uniform electric field that is directed vertically upward and has a magnitude of 4.30x 104 V/
hodyreva [135]

A) The work done by the electric field is zero

B) The work done by the electric field is 9.1\cdot 10^{-4} J

C) The work done by the electric field is -2.4\cdot 10^{-3} J

Explanation:

A)

The electric field applies a force on the charged particle: the direction of the force is the same as that of the electric field (for a positive charge).

The work done by a force is given by the equation

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the particle

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

  • The force is directed vertically upward (because the field is directed vertically upward)
  • The charge moves to the right, so its displacement is to the right

This means that force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, so

\theta=90^{\circ}

and cos 90^{\circ}=0: therefore, the work done on the charge by the electric field is zero.

B)

In this case, the charge move upward (same direction as the electric field), so

\theta=0^{\circ}

and

cos 0^{\circ}=1

Therefore, the work done by the electric force is

W=Fd

and we have:

F=qE is the magnitude of the electric force. Since

E=4.30\cdot 10^4 V/m is the magnitude of the electric field

q=32.0 nC = 32.0\cdot 10^{-9}C is the charge

The electric force is

F=(32.0\cdot 10^{-9})(4.30\cdot 10^4)=1.38\cdot 10^{-3} N

The displacement of the particle is

d = 0.660 m

Therefore, the work done is

W=Fd=(1.38\cdot 10^{-3})(0.660)=9.1\cdot 10^{-4} J

C)

In this case, the angle between the direction of the field (upward) and the displacement (45.0° downward from the horizontal) is

\theta=90^{\circ}+45^{\circ}=135^{\circ}

Moreover, we have:

F=1.38\cdot 10^{-3} N (electric force calculated in part b)

While the displacement of the charge is

d = 2.50 m

Therefore, we can now calculate the work done by the electric force:

W=Fdcos \theta = (1.38\cdot 10^{-3})(2.50)(cos 135.0^{\circ})=-2.4\cdot 10^{-3} J

And the work is negative because the electric force is opposite direction to the displacement of the charge.
