In a game of tug of war, team one pulls to the right with a force of 500 newtons and team two pulls to the left with a force of
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is no set way to do this. All you have to do is define left and right. Left will be minus and right will be the opposite --- plus.

That is completely arbitrary. It could be the other way around. It does not matter.

Left is minus so: - 600 N   is the force going left.

Right plus so: + 500 N

Now just add.

Net Force = +500 - 600

Net Force = - 100 N

So the Net Force is - 100 N going to the left.

You are standing next to a table and looking down on a record player sitting on the table. Take the spindle (axis of rotation) t
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

a) the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b) the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c) the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

Explanation:

 Given that;

Revolution per minute rpm = 33( 1/3) =  100/3

The frequency f = 100 / 3(60) = 0.55 Hz

a)

Rotational speed W = 2πf

we substitute

W = 2π × 0.55

W = 3.45 rad/s

Therefore, the rotational speed of the clay is  3.45 rad/s

b)

given equation; y(t)=Asin(ωt+ϕi)

given that radius = 0.15 m

y(t)=(0.2)sin(ωt+ϕi)

Therefore, the value of A in the equation of motion is 0.15 m

c)

since y(t) has the maximum value at t =0

so at t=0

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(ϕi)

this will give maximum value when ϕi = 90°

so

y(0) = (0.15)sin(ω(0)+ϕi)

= 0.15sin(90°)

= 0.15

hence, the value of ϕi is 90° or π/2 rad.

From the window of a house that is placed 15 m
kow [346]

Answer:

a) 52.915 m

b) The vertical velocity is approximately 21.092 m/s

The resultant velocity is approximately 26.5 m/s

Explanation:

a) The height of the window in the house from which the water was thrown = 15 m

The speed of the stream of water thrown = 20 m/s

The angle at which the water was thrown = 37° over the horizontal

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 10 m/s²

a) The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall is given as follows;

y = y₀ + u·t·sin(θ) + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

y = The vertical height reached    

u = The initial velocity

t = Time of flight

From the point the steam of water is thrown, we get;

y₀ = 15 m

Therefore;

y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 1/2 × 10 × t²

y = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²

When y = 0, Ground level, we get

0 = 15 + 20 × t × sin(37°) - 5 × t²

5·t² - 20×sin(37°)×t -15 = 0

∴ t = (20 ×sin(37°) ± √((-20 × ·sin(37°))² - 4 × (5) × (-15)))/(2 × 5)

t ≈ 3.3128302, or t ≈ 0.906

Therefore, the time of flight of the water, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds

The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = The horizontal distance travelled by the water, x

x = u·cos(θ)×t

∴ x = 20 × cos(37°) × 3.3128302 ≈ 52.915

The distance from the base of the house at which the water will fall = x ≈ 52.915 m

b) The velocity at which the water will reach the ground, 'v', is given as follows;

The vertical velocity, v_y = u·sin(θ)·t - g·t

At the ground, t ≈ 3.3128302 seconds

∴ v_y = 20 × sin(37) - 10 × 3.3128302 ≈ -21.092

The vertical velocity at which the water will reach the ground, v_y ≈ 21.092 m/s (downwards)

The resultant velocity, v = √(v_y² + vₓ²)

∴ v = √(21.092² + (0 × cos(37°))²) ≈ 26.5

The resultant velocity at which the water will reach the ground, v ≈ 26.5 m/s.

Wind tends to move from<br> pressure areas.<br> low, high<br> high, high<br> low, low<br> high, low
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

high, low

Explanation:

  • Energy always flows from a higher level to a lower level.
  • It is analogous to the waterfall where waterfalls from a higher level to a lower level.
  • So in the case of the pressure of the gas, when there are any numbers of molecules in a given volume of space. The gas is said to be at high pressure.
  • When there are fewer molecules in the given volume. The gas is said to be at lower pressure.
  • Due to a large number of atoms, the high-pressure gas exerts more force on the container than the force exerted by the low-pressure gas.
  • If a hose is connected between these two containers, gas rushes from high pressure to the low pressure. Since the force exerted by the high-pressure gas is greater than that of low-pressure gas.

So, the wind tends to move from high-pressure areas to low pressure.
