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

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

BRAINLYIST ASAPPP write and claim evidence and reasoning statement that explains why mercury and Venus do not have any moons
umka2103 [35]

answer:They are too close to the sun!

Explanation:Because Mercury is so close to the Sun and its gravity, it wouldn't be able to hold on to its own moon. Any moon would most likely crash into Mercury or maybe go into orbit around the Sun and eventually get pulled into it.Same with Venus!

Calculate the molarity of a 10. 0% cacl₂ solution. The density of the solution is 1. 0835 g/cm³.
brilliants [131]

The molarity of 10% CaCl2 is 0.9%

concentration of the given salt CaCl₂ = 10%

Density of a solution = 1.0835 g/cm³

Volume = m / d

= 100 / 1.0835

= 92.29 litres

Density = mass / volume

1.0835 × 92.29 = mass

mass = 99.99 gram

Thus the molarity can be calculated by = moles of solute / volume of solution multiplied by 100

= 0.9008/ 92.29 X 100 %

= 0.009 X 100 %

= 0.9 %

The molarity of 10% CaCl2 is 0.9%

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81 m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 40.0 N at the s
Mumz [18]

Answer

acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter's moon,g' = 1.81 m/s²

weight of water melon on earth, W = 40 N

acceleration due to gravity on earth, g = 9.8 m/s²

a) Mass on the earth surface

    M = \dfrac{W}{g}

    M = \dfrac{40}{9.8}

           M = 4.08 Kg

b) Mass on the surface of Lo

 Mass of an object remain same.

  Hence, mass of object at the surface of Lo = 4.08 Kg.

c) Weight at the surface of Lo

   W' = m g'

   W' =4.08 x 1.81

   W' = 7.38 N
