Answer:
As the person moves down the zip wire, her increase in kinetic energy is less than her decrease in gravitational potential energy.
Explanation:
Work is done against the air resistance, causing thermal energy to transfer to the surroundings
Answer:
2.5 m
Explanation:
Weight of billboard worker = 800 N
Number of ropes = 2
Length of scaffold = 4 m
Weight of scaffold = 500 N
Tension in rope = 550 N
The sum of the torques will be

The position of the person will be 2.5 m
Answer:
the tension in the rope between the boxes is equal to 88 N
Explanation:
given,
the force applied on one body F = 176 N
When two bodies are moving on horizontal plane at constant velocity then their kinetic friction (f k) is equal to applied force F
According to newton third law the resultant force acting on one body is equal to the resultant force acting on the another body.
T is the tension in the rope

T - F = - (T - F)
T - 176 = - (T - 0)
2 T = 176
T = 176/2 = 88 N
so, the tension in the rope between the boxes is equal to 88 N
Conservation of momentum<span> is a fundamental law of physics. This law states that the </span>momentum<span> of a system is constant if there are </span>no external forces acting on the system. In a situation in which two balls, each with a mass of 0.5 kg, collide on a pool table<span> the law of conservation of momentum is not satisfied because there are external forces that moved the balls. </span>
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.
