Explanation:
Work done by a force is given by :
Where
F is force, d is displacement and is the angle between F and d.
In this problem, a crane is moving in downward direction, the force gravity is in downward direction and the tension is in upward direction.
We know that if force and displacement is in same direction, work is positive while if force and displacement is in oposite direction, work is negative.
I would mean that, is positive, because gravity is parallel to the displacement and is negative, because the tension is opposite to the displacement.
C is the best answer choice
Answer:
(a) 388 newton
(b) 17.15 m/s
Explanation:
r = 30 m
v = 10 m/s
m = 60 kg
(a) Let N be the normal reaction.
At the bump
N = mg - mv^2 / r
N = 60 x 9.8 - 60 x 10 x 10 / 30 = 588 - 200 = 388 newton
(b) Then the contact loose, N = 0
So, mg = mv^2 / r
v^2 = r x g = 30 x 9.8 = 294
v = 17.15 m/s
