Answer:
5817 Newtons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total mass of the cage + the miners = 700 Kg which is a downward force of 700g N.
The net downward force = 700g - T where T is the tension (force) in the cable. The g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m s-2.
We calculate the acceleration of the cage by using an equation of motion:
Distance = ut + 1/2 a t^2 where u = initial velocity , t = time and a = acceleration:
75 = 0(t) + 1/2 a (10^2)
50a = 75
a = 1.5 m s-2.
So using Newtons second law of motion
Force = mass * acceleration:
700*9.81 - T = 700 * 1.5
T = 700 * 9.81 - 700*1.5
= 5817 N.
Answer:
a) At the end of the bones
The complement of an angle is what, when added to it, equals 90 degrees (90°), so 90 - 76 = 14°
