The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

  • F₁ = 118 N
  • F₂ = 89.21 N
  • F₃ = 57.28 N

<u>Given data :</u>

Mass ( M ) = 12 kg

∅₂ = 63°

∅₃ = 45°

<h3>Determine the magnitudes of the forces exerted by the ropes on the connecting knot</h3><h3 />

a) Force exerted by the first rope = weight of rope

∴  F₁ = mg

     = 12 * 9.81 ≈  118 kg

<u>b) Force exerted by the second rope </u>

applying equilibrium condition of force in the vertical direction

F₂ sin∅₂ + F₃ sin∅₃ - mg = 0  ---- ( 1 )

where: F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ ) --- ( 2 )  applying equilibrium condition of force in the horizontal direction

Back to equation ( 1 )

F₂ =  [ ( mg / cos∅₂ ) / tan∅₂ + tan∅₃ ]

   = [ ( 118 / cos 63° ) / ( tan 63° + tan 45° ) ]

   = 89.21 N

<u />

<u>C ) </u><u>Force </u><u>exerted by the</u><u> third rope </u>

Applying equation ( 2 )

F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ )

    = ( 89.21 * cos 63 / cos 45 )

    = 57.28 N

Hence we can conclude that The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

F₁ = 118 N, F₂ = 89.21 N, F₃ = 57.28 N

Water initially at 200 kPa and 300°C is contained in a piston–cylinder device fitted with stops. The water is allowed to cool at
netineya [11]

Answer:

Δu=1300kJ/kg  

Explanation:

Energy at the initial state

p_{1}=200kPa\\t_{1}=300^{o}\\u_{1}=2808.8kJ/kg(tableA-5)

Is saturated vapor at initial pressure we have

p_{2}=200kPa\\x_{2}=1(stat.vapor)\\v_{2}=0.8858m^3/kg(tableA-5)

Process 2-3 is a constant volume process

p_{3}=100kPa\\v_{3}=v_{2}=0.8858m^{3}/kg\\u_{3}=1508.6kJ/kg(tableA-5)

The overall in internal energy

Δu=u₁-u₃

We replace the values in equation

Δu=u₁-u₃

=2808.8kJ/kg-1508.6kJ/kg\\=1300kJ/kg

Δu=1300kJ/kg

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

8 N

Explanation:

Using the equation F=ma (F: force/ m: mass  in kg/ a: acceleration),

F = (800/1000)(10)

F = 8 N

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 1.6 x 10^2 ft. high at an initial velocity of 21.82 mi/
Goshia [24]

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 1.60 x 102 ft. high at an initial velocity of 21.82 mi/h, what is its final velocity when it hits the ground? (Disregard wind resistance. Round answer to nearest whole number and do not reflect negative direction in your answer.)


this question is troubling me i guessed 96 ft/s

can someone help me out and explain it thanks so much!!!!!!
