If the applied force is 60 N and the lower mass is 1.0 kg, what is the tension in the string?(frictionless surface)

Physics

Alik [6]2 years ago

The net force on the larger mass in the horizontal direction (where we take the direction of F to be positive) is

F - T = 2Ma

where T is the magnitude of tension and a is the mass's acceleration.

The net force on the smaller mass in the vertical direction (upward is positive) is

T - Mg = Ma

If M = 1.0 kg and F = 60 N, then we end up with two equations with two unknowns,

60 N - T = (2.0 kg) a

T - (1.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = (1.0 kg) a

Eliminate a and solve for T :

(60 N - T) - 2 (T - (1.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²)) = (2.0 kg) a - 2 (1.0 kg) a

60 N - T - 2T + 19.6 N = (2.0 kg) a - (2.0 kg) a

40.4 N - 3T = 0

3T = 40.4 N

T = (40.4 N) / 3

T ≈ 13 N

a mass of 1.00 kg of water at temperature T is poured from a height of 0.100 km into a vessel containing water of the same tempe
Mariana [72]

Answer:

1.34352 kg

Explanation:

m_w = Mass of water falling = 1 kg

h = Height of fall = 0.1 km

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 0.1

c = Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg K

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m_v = Mass of water in the vessel

Here the potential energy will balance the internal energy

m_wgh=m_wc\Delta T+m_vc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh-m_wc\Delta T}{c\Delta T}\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{m_wgh}{c\Delta T}-m_w\\\Rightarrow m_v=\dfrac{1\times 9.81\times 100}{4186\times 0.1}-1\\\Rightarrow m_v=1.34352\ kg

Mass of the water in the vessel is 1.34352 kg

The coefficient of static friction between a 3.00 kg crate and the 35.0o incline is 0.300. What minimum force F must be applied
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

So the minimum force is

32.2Newton

Explanation:

To solve for the minimum force, let us assume it to be F (N)

So

F=mgsinA

But

=>>>> coefficient of static friction x (F + mgcosA

=>3 x 9.8 x sin35 = 0.3 x (F + 3 x 9.8 x cos35)

So making F subject of formula

F + 24.0 = 56.2

F = 32.2N
