Answer:

Torque τ =w ×0 = 0

Explanation:

We know that the torque is given by the product of the force and perpendicular distance between the force and the axis.

Here the gravity force act at the center and the rotational axis is also passing through the center.

Therefore the perpendicular distance between the force and the rotational axis would be zero.

Hence the torque will be

Torque = Force × Perpendicular distance

Torque = mg×0 = 0

Therefore the torque would be zero.

Answer:

a) W = - 318.26 J, b)  W = 0 , c) W = 318.275 J , d) W = 318.275 J , e) W = 0

Explanation:

The work is defined by

           W = F .ds = F ds cos θ

Bold indicate vectors

We create a reference system where the x-axis is parallel to the ramp and the axis and perpendicular, in the attached we see a scheme of the forces

Let's use trigonometry to break down weight

     sin θ = Wₓ / W

     Wₓ = W sin 60

     cos θ = Wy / W

      Wy = W cos 60

X axis

How the body is going at constant speed

    fr - Wₓ = 0

    fr = mg sin 60

    fr = 15 9.8 sin 60

    fr = 127.31 N

Y Axis  

    N - Wy = 0

    N = mg cos 60

    N = 15 9.8 cos 60

    N = 73.5 N

Let's calculate the different jobs

a) The work of the force of gravity is

     W = mg L cos θ

Where the angles are between the weight and the displacement is

      θ = 60 + 90 = 150

     W = 15 9.8 2.50 cos 150

     W = - 318.26 J

b) The work of the normal force

     From Newton's equations

          N = Wy = W cos 60

          N = mg cos 60

         W = N L cos 90

        W = 0

c) The work of the friction force

      W = fr L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

      W = 318.275 J

d) as the body is going at constant speed the force of the tape is equal to the force of friction

      W = F L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

       W = 318.275 J

e) the net force

    F ’= fr - Wx = 0

    W = F ’L cos 0

    W = 0

You are playing a game called "Will It Float?" In this game, you are given a large, square can of tuna. If you know the density
Delicious77 [7]
The only information you would need to decide if the can will float is the density of the can, which requires knowing the mass and volume. If the density of the can is less than one, the can will float. if it is greater than one, it will not float, as water's density is one.

A bicyclist of mass 68 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 3.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 6.5 m, what is the centripetal
ASHA 777 [7]
Data:
Centripetal Force = ? (Newton)
m (mass) = 68 Kg
s (speed) = 3.9 m/s
R (radius) = 6.5 m

Formula:
F_{centripetal\:force} =  \frac{m*s^2}{R}

Solving:
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{m*s^2}{R}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{68*3.9^2}{6.5}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{68*15.21}{6.5}
F_{centripetal\:force} = \frac{1034.28}{6.5}
\boxed{\boxed{F_{centripetal\:force} = 159.12\:N}}
