Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 356 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 478

N from a point 7.50 m above the ground. (a) What magnitude of the bundle's acceleration will put the rope on the verge of snapping? (b) At that acceleration, with what speed would the bundle hit the ground?

Answer:

a) 2.5 m/s²

b) 6.12 m/s

Explanation:

Tension of rope = T = 356N

Weight of material = W = 478 N

Distance from the ground = s = 7.5 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.81 m/s²

Mass of material = m = 478/9.81 = 48.72

Final velocity before the bundle hits the ground = v

Initial velocity = u = 0

Acceleration experienced by the material when being lowered = a

a) W-T = ma

⇒478-356 = 48.72×a

\Rightarrow \frac{122}{48.72} = a

⇒a = 2.5 m/s²

∴ Acceleration achieved by the material is 2.5 m/s²

b) v²-u² = 2as

⇒v²-0 = 2×2.5×7.5

⇒v² = 37.5

⇒v = 6.12 m/s

∴ Velocity of the material before hitting the ground is 6.12 m/s

Distance in scientific notation
n200080 [17]

Answer:

(See explanation for further information)

Explanation:

a) The distances of each planet with respect to the Sun is:

Mercury - 57.909 \times 10^{6}\,mi

Venus - 67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi

Earth - 92.960\times 10^{6}\,mi

Mars - 141.600\times 10^{6}\,mi

Jupiter - 483.800\times 10^{6}\,mi

Saturn - 888.200\times 10^{6}\,mi

Uranus - 1,787\times 10^{6}\,mi

Neptune - 2,795\times 10^{6}\,mi

b) The solutions are presented below:

A. The distance between Venus and Jupiter is:

\Delta s = 483.800\times 10^{6}\,mi-67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi

\Delta s = 416.560\times 10^{6}\,mi

B. The combined distance from the Sun is:

\Delta s = 57.909\times 10^{6}\,mi + 67.240\times 10^{6}\,mi +92.960\times 10^{6}\,mi

\Delta s = 218.109\times 10^{6}\,mi

Which is less than the distance from the Sun to Neptune (2,795\times 10^{6}\,mi).

C. The new distance of Earth is 929.60 \times 10^{6}\,mi (929,600,000\,mi). Saturn would be the closest planet to Earth, whose distance:

Scientific notation:

\Delta s = 929.600\times 10^{6}\,mi-888.200\,\times 10^{6}\,mi

\Delta s = 41.4\times 10^{6}\,mi

Standard notation:

\Delta s = 929,600,000\,mi - 888,200,000\,mi

\Delta s = 41,400.000\,mi

In what sense did the flappers dressand dance represent a display of freedom​
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Flappers are symbols of the Thundering Twenties, the social, political disturbance and expanded transoceanic social trade that followed the finish of World War I. Flappers were viewed as reckless for wearing inordinate cosmetics, drinking liquor, smoking cigarettes in broad daylight, driving vehicles and treating sex nonchalantly. They guaranteed that the flappers' dresses were 'close to exposure', 'nervy', 'foolish', and unintelligent.

Which of the followings are true about Vmax? A. The higher the [enzyme], the higher the Vmax B. Vmax is proportional to k2 C. Vm
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is A.

The higher the enzyme, the higher the Vmax

Explanation:

Although, in the absence of enzyme, the rate of a reaction(Vmax) increase linearly with substrate concentration. The reaction rate is given as dp/dt.

The rate of a reaction involving enzyme also increases.

At low enzyme concentrations or high substrate concentrations, all of the available enzyme active sites could be occupied with substrates. Therefore, increasing the substrate concentration further will not change the rate of diffusion. In other words, there is some maximum reaction rate (Vmax) when all enzyme active sites are occupied. The reaction rate will increase with increasing substrate concentration, but must asymptotically approach the saturation rate, Vmax. Vmax is directly proportional to the total enzyme concentration, E
