Traveling against currents usually takes longer. Kinda like walking against the wind, you feel the heaviness against your jacket as you push through it. Where when you walking with the wind, it kind of gives your a push. Same for with currents.

Need help solving this question.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

to solve this problem we must make a free body diagram, with the forces acting on the metal rod.

The center of gravity of the rod is concentrated in half the distance, that is, from the end of the bar to the center there is 40 [cm]. This can be seen in the attached free body diagram.

We have only two equilibrium equations, a summation of forces on the Y-axis equal to zero, and a summation of moments on any point equal to zero.

For the summation of forces we will take the forces upwards as positive and the negative forces downwards.

ΣF = 0

$-15+T-W=0\\T-W=15$

Now we perform a sum of moments equal to zero around the point of attachment of the string with the metal bar. Let's take as a positive the moment of the force that rotates the metal bar counterclockwise.

ii) In the free body diagram we can see that the force acts at 18 [cm] of the string.

ΣM = 0

$(15*9) - (18*W) = 0\\135 = 18*W\\W = 7.5 [N]$

Natalie lifts a 15-kg rock from the ground onto a 1.5 meter high wall. what is the amount of potential energy she has given the

Zina [86]

The amount of gravitational potential energy acquired by the rock is equal to:
$\Delta U = mg \Delta h$
where
m is the mass of the rock
g is the gravitational acceleration
$\Delta h$ is the increase in height of the rock

Substituting the data of the problem, we find
$\Delta U=(15 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.5 m)=220.7 J$
So, Natalie gave 220.7 J of energy to the rock.
