The answer to this question would be: a spring scale.
The spring scale that you use to determine your body weight is actually a device that measures your body gravitational force. The force itself influenced by your body weight, that is why it can determine your body weight.
More weight means more force, more force will shrink the spring more.
Answer:
Explanation:
This question is based on the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum.
Angular momentum (L) equals the moment of inertia (I) times the angular speed (ω).
L = Iω
If momentum is conserved,
I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂
Data:
I₁ = 3.5 kg·m²s⁻¹
ω₁ = 6.0 rev·s⁻¹
I₂ = 0.70 kg·m²s⁻¹
Calculation:

Answer:
x = 25 / μ [ ft]
Explanation:
To solve this exercise we can use Newton's second law.
Let's set a reference system where the x axis is parallel to the road
Y axis
N_B + N_A - W_van - W_load = 0
N_B + N_A = W_van + W_load
X axis
fr = ma
a = fr / m
the total mass is
m = (W_van + W_load) / g
the friction force has the expression
fr = μ N_{total}
fr = μy (W_van + W_load)
we substitute
a = μ (W_van + W_load)
a = μ g
taking the acceleration let's use the kinematic relations where the final velocity is zero
v² = v₀² - 2 a x
0 = v₀² -2a x
x =
x =
x =
x = 25 / μ [ ft]
