Answer:

Fm = 51N and Fj = 26N

Summing the moments about the shoulder joint

Sum of anticlockwise moments = sum of clockwise moments

Fm x 12 = mg x 24

Fm = 2.6 x 9.8 × 24/12

Fm = 51N

Summing the forces acting on the arm

Sum of upward forces = sum of downward forces

Fm = Fj + mg

51 = Fj + 2.6 × 9.8

51 = Fj + 25.48

Fj = 51 - 25.48

Fj = 26N

Explanation:

Newtons first law and the principle of moments have been applied in solving this problem.

Choose the correct statement of Kirchhoff's voltage law.
frutty [35]

Answer:

A) If one travels around a closed path adding the voltages for which one enters the negative reference and subtracting the voltages for which one enters the positive reference, the total is zero.

Explanation:

Kirchhoff's voltage law deals with the conservation of energy when the current flows in a closed-loop path.

It states that the algebraic sum of the voltages around any closed loop in a circuit is always zero.

In other words, the algebraic sum of all the potential differences through a loop must be equal to zero.

: The truck is to be towed using two ropes. Determine the magnitudes of forces FA and FB acting on each rope in order to develop
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Fa=774 N

Fb=346 N

Explanation:

We will solve this problem by equating forces on each axis.

  1. On x-axis let forces in positive x-direction be positive and forces in negative x-direction be negative
  2. On y-axis let forces in positive y-direction be positive and forces in negative y-direction be negative

While towing we know that car is mot moving in y-direction so net force in y-axis must be zero

⇒∑Fy=0

⇒Fa*sin(50)-Fb*sin(20)=0

⇒Fa*sin(50)=Fb*sin(20)

⇒Fa=2.24Fb

Given that resultant force on car is 950N in positive x-direction

⇒∑Fx=950  

⇒Fa*cos(20)+Fb*cos(50)=950

⇒2.24*Fb*cos(20)+Fb(50)=950

⇒Fb*(2.24*cos(20)+cos(50))=950

⇒Fb=\frac{950}{2.24*cos(20)+cos(50)}

⇒Fb=\frac{950}{2.24*0.94+0.64}

⇒ Fb=\frac{950}{2.75}=345.5

⇒Fa=2.24*Fb

      =2.24*345.5

      =773.93

Therefore approximately, Fa=774 N and Fb=346 N

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

choosing a material that will show warning before it fails

Explanation:

According to my research on different architectural engineering techniques, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this is an example of choosing a material that will show warning before it fails. By choosing aluminum he can detect certain failures a long time before it actually happens since aluminum shows signs of wear and tear and doesn't just break immediately.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
