Answer:

the net force is 101587.5 N

Explanation:

The speed of wind

v = 30 m/s

The area of roof,

A = 175 m 2

The expression for the Bernoulli's theorem.

P = 12 ρv 2 ...... (1)

Here,

P is the pressure difference,

ρ is the density of air and

v is the speed of wind.

The expression for the pressure.

P = F A ..... (2)

Here,

F is the force and

A is the area of roof.

Part (a)

Substitute the values for the pressure difference in equation (1)

P = 12 × 1.29 × (30) 2 P = 580.5 Pa

Thus, the pressure difference at the roof between the inside and outside air is

580.5 Pa

Part (b)

Substitute the values for the net force in equation (2)

580.5 = F 175 F = 101587.5 N

Thus, the net force is 101587.5 N.

Calculate the force a 70.0-kg high jumper must exert on the ground to produce an upward acceleration 4.00 times the acceleration

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

3433.5 N

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = Mass of person = 70 kg

According to the question

a = Acceleration

$4g=4\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow a=39.24\ m/s^2$

Balancing the forces we have

$F-w=ma\\\Rightarrow F=ma+w\\\Rightarrow F=ma+mg\\\Rightarrow F=m(a+g)\\\Rightarrow F=70(39.24+9.81)\\\Rightarrow F=3433.5\ N$

The required force is 3433.5 N

A uniform piece of wire, 20 cm long, is bent in a right angle in the center to give it an L-shape. How far from the bend is the

zlopas [31]

Answer:

the center of mass is 7.07 cm apart from the bend

Explanation:

the centre of mass of a wire of length L is L/2 ( assuming uniform density). Then initially the x coordinate of the centre of mass is

x₁ = L/2 = 20 cm /2 = 10 cm

when the wire is bent in a right angle the coordinates of the new centre of mass will be

x₂ = L₂/2

y₂= L₂/2

where L₂ is the length of the horizontal piece and vertical piece . Then L₂=L/2

x₂ = L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm

y₂= L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm

x₂=y₂=X

locating the bend in the origin (0,0) the distance to the centre of mass is

d = √(x₂²+y₂²) = √(2X²) = √2*X=√2*5cm = 7.07 cm

d = 7.07 cm

A spring stretches 0.220 m when a 0.400 kg-mass is hung from it. What is its spring constant? (Mass is not a force )

Fantom [35]

We want to know the amount of force that stretches the spring 0.22 m.
That force is the WEIGHT of the mass hung from it.
The weight of the mass is (mass) times (gravity).
To do that calculation, we need to know the value of gravity, but
gravity has different values on every planet. I shall assume that
this whole springy question is taking place on Earth, so that the
value of gravity is 9.8 m/s² .

The weight of the mass is (0.4 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 3.92 Newtons.

The spring constant is

(force/length of the stretch)

= (3.92 Newtons) / (0.22 meters)

= (3.92 / 0.22) Newtons/meter

= 17.82 N/m .

Two workhorses tow a barge along a straight canal. Each horse exerts a constant force of magnitude F, and the tow ropes make an

morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) Fvt cosθ

b) Fv cosθ

Explanation:

Each horse exerts a force = F

the rope is inclined at an angle = θ

speed of each horse = v

a) In time t, the distance traveled d = speed x time

i.e d = v x t = vt

also, the resultant force = F cosθ

Work done W = force x distance

W = F cosθ x vt = Fvt cosθ

b) Power provided by the horse P = force x speed

P = F cosθ x v

P = Fv cosθ
