This question involves the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's third law of motion.

The support force will be "1 pound" for the empty bucket and the support force will be "6 pounds" after pouring water into it.

  • According to the condition of equilibrium, the sum of forces acting on a stationary object must be zero. Hence, the support force of the table will be equal to the total mass of the bucket.
  • According to Newton's Third Law of Motion every action force has an equal but opposite reaction force. Hence, the support force will be a reaction force to the weight of the bucket.

Therefore, the support force in each case will be equal to the total mass of the bucket:

Case 1 (empty bucket):

<u>support force = 1 pound</u>

<u></u>

Case 1 (water poured):

support force = 1 pound + 5 pound

<u>support force = 6 pound</u>

<u></u>

Derek's experiment best demonstrates the effects of gravity, that force made the water go down and  hit the ground, the effect of that was a depression.

The definition of Hydrosphere is all the water of earth surface, so the water represents Hydrosphere.

The definition of Geosphere is the surface of Earth, when the water fell down and touched the ground it caused an interaction between Hydrosphere and Geosphere.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

14.2

Explanation:

find horizontal force of the weight = 2.5kg x 9.8 Sin30 = 12.3 N

to prevent the sliding she needs to pull horizontally

Fh = 12.3 /Cos 30 =14.2N

Jane, looking for Tarzan, is running at top speed (4.9 m/s) and grabs a vine hanging 4.1 m vertically from a tall tree in the ju
Ann [662]

Answer:

1.22375 m

Explanation:

v = Velocity = 4.9 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height

In this system the kinetic and potential energy is conserved when Tarzan at the top of the swing

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{4.9^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=1.22375\ m

The height of the swing is 1.22375 m

As it can be seen in the equation the length of the vine does not matter
