Answer:
b. 375 N
Explanation:
System of forces in balance
ΣFy = 0 Equation (1)
Forces acting on the board
T₁: Tension in the left chain , vertical and upward
T₂ = 250 N : Tension in the right chain , vertical and upward
W₁ = 125 N : Weight of the board , vertical and downward
W₂ = 500 N : Weight of the person , vertical and downward
Calculation of the T₁
We apply the Equation (1)
ΣFy = 0
T₁+T₂-W₁-W₂ = 0
T₁ = -T₂+W₁+W₂
T₁ = -250 N+ 125 N+ 500 N
T₁ = 375 N
Use the law of conservation of momentum. Since the momentum is a linear measure, we can treat each of the dimension separately:
i-direction:

j-direction:

Answer: Final velocity is: (10i + 15j) m/s
Change in the kinetic energy:

Answer: The system lost 500J worth of kinetic energy in the collision
The energy travels in a disturbance, in an ocean that disturbance is a wave, so the wave makes energy and moves it through the water
Because you would fall so slow that you would not need one.
For balancing the lever, force on both the sides shall be equal. so,
Force on 3 m end = m × a = 3 × 98.1 = 294.3
Now, on 6 m end, it would be: = 294.3/6 = 49.05
After rounding-off to the nearest hundredth value, it would be: 49 N
Finally, Option A would be your correct answer.
Hope this helps!
