The maximum value of θ of such the ropes (with a maximum tension of 5,479 N) will be able to support the beam without snapping is:

\theta =37.01^{\circ}

We can apply the first Newton's law in x and y-direction.

If we do a free body diagram of the system we will have:

x-direction

All the forces acting in this direction are:

T_{1}sin(\theta)-T_{2}sin(\theta)=0    (1)

Where:

  • T(1) is the tension due to the rope 1
  • T(2) is the tension due to the rope 2

Here we just conclude that T(1) = T(2)

y-direction

The forces in this direction are:

T_{1}cos(\theta)+T_{2}cos(\theta)-W=0   (2)

Here W is the weight of the steel beam.

We equal it to zero because we need to find the maximum angle at which the ropes will be able to support the beam without snapping.

Knowing that T(1) = T(2) and W = mg, we have:

T_{1}cos(\theta)+T_{1}cos(\theta)-m_{steel}g=0

2T_{1}cos(\theta)-m_{steel}g=0

2T_{1}cos(\theta)=m_{steel}g

T(1) must be equal to 5479 N, so we have:

cos(\theta)=\frac{m_{steel}g}{2T_{1}}

cos(\theta)=\frac{892*9.81}{2*5479}

cos(\theta)=\frac{892*9.81}{2*5479}

cos(\theta)=0.80

Therefore, the maximum angle allowed is θ = 37.01°.

28. Identify whether the following objects are in
Marianna [84]

Answer:

a. A baseball after it has been  hit - not in free fall

b. A rock that is thrown in the  air - not in free fall

c. The moon - free-fall

d. A paper airplane - not in free fall

e. A bird flying - not in free fall

Explanation:

  1. The free-fall is defined as the falling of an object due to the action of gravity. The object is not experiencing any other force neglecting the air resistance.
  2. If an object is in free-fall, the direction of its motion is directed towards the center of the earth. It does not have a horizontal component of velocity.
  3. If the body is under free-fall, but a centripetal force acts on it where it is equal to the gravitational force at that point. The object will have two components of velocity along the tangential line, perpendicular to the radius of the orbit.

a. A baseball after it has been  hit - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.

b. A rock that is thrown in the  air - not in free fall according to point 1.

c. The moon - free-fall according to point 3.

d. A paper airplane - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.

e. A bird flying - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.

6.A string of 100 Christmas lights requires 4 Volts and 2 Amps for a single bulb to light up. (a) When one light on the sting go
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given,

V = 4 volts

A = 2 amps

a)

In the first instance, one light on the sting goes out and the whole string of lights no longer turns on. This means that the circuit is a series circuit.

b) Total voltage = 4 x 100 = 400 V

The current passing through each bulb is the same. Thus

Total Current = 2 Amps

Recall, V = IR

R = V/I

Thus,

Resistance = 400/2

Resistance = 200 ohms

c) In this case, one light goes out on the string all other lights still turn on. This means that the circuit is a parallel circuit

d)

The voltage is the same

Total voltage = 4 volts

Total current = 2 x 100 = 200 amps

Total resistance = 4/200

Total resistance = 0.02 ohms

40 miles/hour

Details:
after one hour they have traveled 40mi. So they have traveled 40mi. in 1hr, or 40mi/1hr or 40mi/hr.

the problem is about reading a graph. the graph says that they traveled 40 miles in the first hour

formula for average speed:
miles traveled/time it took=speed or d/t=r
