When you are on a swing, and at the lowest point of your motion, is your apparent weight greater than, less than, or equal to yo

ur true weight? Explain.

Answer:

the apparent weight is greater than the true weight

Explanation:

There must be a centripetal force directed towards the center

In circular motion. So that the net force point up towards the

Center of the circle we can pretend you are in uniform circular

Motion at the bottom of the swing trajectory. Thus, the swing

need to exert a bigger upward force on you as compared to

the earth which is in the downward direction . Hence, the apparent weight is greater than the true weight

Some gliders are launched from the ground by means of a winch, which rapidly reels in a towing cable attached to the glider. Wha
MArishka [77]

Answer:

P = 1.64 \times 10^4 Watt

Explanation:

Here we know that the glider is accelerated uniformly from rest to final speed of 25.7 m/s in total distance of d = 46.9 m

so we will have

v_f = 25.7 m/s

v_i = 0

d = 46.9

so for uniformly accelerated motion we have

d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2} t

46.9 = \frac{25.7 + 0}{2}t

t = 3.65 s

now we will find the total work done given as change in kinetic energy

W = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

W = \frac{1}{2}(181)(25.7^2)

W = 5.97 \times 10^4 J

now power is given as

P = \frac{W}{t}

P = \frac{5.97 \times 10^4}{3.65}

P = 1.64 \times 10^4 Watt

A 2200 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2400 kg SUV to give it a push. With the engine at full pow
leonid [27]

Answer:

a) The maximum possible acceleration the truck can give the SUV is 7.5 meters per second squared

b) The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is 18000 newtons

Explanation:

a) By Newton's second law we can find the relation between force and acceleration of the SUV:

F=ma

With F the maximum force the truck applies to the SUV, m the mass of the SUV and a the acceleration of the SUV; solving for a:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{18000}{2400}\approx7.5\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

b) Because at this acceleration the truck's bumper makes a force of 18000 N on the SUV’s bumper by Third Newton’s law the force of the SUV’s bumper on the truck’s bumper is 18000 N too because they are action-reaction force pairs.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Part A - 3N/m

Part B - see attachment

Part C - 4.9 × 10-³J

Part D - E = 1/2kd² + 1/2mv² + mgh

Explanation:

This problem requires the knowledge of simple harmonic motion for cimplete solution. To find the spring constant in part A the expression relating the force applied to a spring and the resulting stretching of the spring (hooke's law) is required which is F = kx.

The free body diagram can be found in the attachment. Fp(force of pull), Ft(Force of tension) and W(weight).

The energy stored in the pring as a result of the stretching of d = 5.7cm is 1/2kd².

Part D

Three forces act on the spring-monkey system and they do work in different forms: kinetic energy 1/2mv² , elastic potential

energy due to the restoring force in the spring or the tension force 1/2kd², and the gravitational potential energy mgh of the position of the system. So the total energy of the system E = 1/2kd² + 1/2mv² + mgh.
