Answer:
T=502.5N
Ax=171.8N
Explanation:
The computation of the tension T in the rope and the forces exerted by the pin at A is shown below:
vertical forces sum = Ay + Tsin20 + T - 245 - 883 = 0
Now
horizontal forces sum = Ax - Tcos70
Now Moment about B
-Ay × 4.8 + 245 × 2.4 + 883 × 1.8=0
Ay=453.6N
Now substitute in sum of vertical forces T=502.5N
Ax=171.8N
Answer:
a) Please, see the attched figure
b) Total displacement R = (78.3 km; -4.8 km)
c) R = (78.4 km * cos (-3.5°); 78.4 km * sin (-3.5°))
d) The hippo is 78.4 km from his starting point.
The total distance traveled is 102 km
Explanation:
a)Please, see the attached figure.
b) The vector A can be expressed as:
A = (magnitude * cos α; magnitude * sin α)
Where
magnitude = 42 km
α= 0
Then,
A = (42 km ; 0) or 42 km i
In the same way, we can proceed with the other vectors:
B = ( Bx ; By)
where
(apply trigonometry of right triangles: sen α = opposite / hypotenuse and
cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse. See the figure to determine which component of vector B is the opposite and adjacent side to α)
Bx = 28 km * sin 25 = 11.8 km
By = 28 km * cos 25 = -25.4 km (it has to be negative since it is directed towards the negative vertical region according to our reference system)
B = (11.8 km; -25.4 km) or 11.8 km i - 25.4 km j
C = (Cx; Cy)
where
Cx = 32 km * cos 40° = 24.5 km
Cy = 32 km * sin 40 = 20.6 km
C = (24.5 km; 20.6 km)
Then:
R = A+B+C = (42 km + 11.8 km + 24.5 km; 0 - 25.4 km + 20.6 km)
= (78.3 km; -4.8 km) or 78.3 km i -4.8 km j
c) R = (78.3 km; -4.8 km)
The magnitude of R is:
Using trigonometry, we can calculate the angle:
Knowing that
tan α = opposite / adjacent
and that
opposite = Ry = -4.8 km
adjacent = Rx = 78.3 km
Then:
tan α = -4.8 km / 78.4 km
α = -3.5°
We can now write the vector R in magnitude and direction form:
R = (78.4 km * cos (-3.5°); 78.4 km * sin (-3.5°))
d) The displacement of the hipo relative to the starting point is the magnitude of vector R calculated in c):
magnitude R = 78. 4 km
The total distance traveled is the sum of the magnitudes of each vector:
Total distance = 42 km + 28 km + 32 km = 102 km
Answer:
The maximum height reached by the body is 313.6 m
The time to return to its point of projection is 8 s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the body, u = 78.4 m/s
at maximum height (h) the final velocity of the body (v) = 0
The following equation is applied to determine the maximum height reached by the body;
v² = u² - 2gh
0 = u² - 2gh
2gh = u²
h = u²/2g
h = (78.4²) / (2 x 9.8)
h = 313.6 m
The time to return to its point of projection is calculated as follows;
at maximum height, the final velocity becomes the initial velocity = 0
h = v + ¹/₂gt²
h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²
h = ¹/₂gt²
2h = gt²
t² = 2h/g
