Answer:

Tension T in each rope will be 254.56 N.

Explanation:

From the picture attached,

Weight suspended by the two ropes will be supported by the vertical components of the tension in the ropes.

Vertical components of both the ropes = Tsin(45)° + Tsin(45)°

= 2Tsin(45)°

= $2T(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})$

= $T\sqrt{2}$

Since, $T\sqrt{2}=360$

T = $\frac{360}{\sqrt{2} }$

T = 254.56 N

Therefore, tension T in each rope will be 254.56 N.

If the volume of an object is reported as 5.0 ft3 what is the volume in cubic meters

12345 [234]

The problem statement is simply asking us to convert units. We convert from units of ft^3 to units of m^3. To do this, we need a conversion factor. For this case, we use 1 m is equal to 3.28084 ft. We do as follows:

5.0 ft^3 ( 1 m / 3.28084 ft )^3 = 0.1416 m^3

A torsional pendulum consists of a disk of mass 450 g and radius 3.5 cm, hanging from a wire. If the disk is given an initial an

Montano1993 [528]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic equations of angular motion, starting from the definition of angular velocity in terms of frequency, to verify the angular displacement and its respective derivative, let's start:

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi (2.5)$

$\omega = 5\pi rad/s$

The angular displacement is given as the form:

$\theta (t) = \theta_0 cos(\omega t)$

In the equlibrium we have to $t=0, \theta(t) = \theta_0$ and in the given position we have to

$\theta(t) = \theta_0 cos(5\pi t)$

Derived the expression we will have the equivalent to angular velocity

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = 2.7rad/s$

Replacing,

$\theta_0(sin(5\pi t))5\pi = 2.7$

Finally

$\theta_0 = \frac{2.7}{5\pi}rad = 9.848\°$

Therefore the maximum angular displacement is 9.848°

Quinn is testing the motion of two projectiles x and y by shooting them from a sling shot. What can we say best describes the mo

Studentka2010 [4]

Explanation:

A projectile motion may be defined as that form of a motion that is experienced by an object or a particle which is projected near the surface of the Earth and the particle moves along the curved path subjected to gravity force only.

Thus a projectile motion is always acted upon by a constant acceleration due to gravity in the down ward direction.

In the context, Quinn shoots two particle x and y from his sling shot and he observes that both his projectiles travels in a parabola curve in the air. Both the object x and y touches the ground a distance apart from him which is known as the range and it depends upon the velocity of the projectile. Both the projectile reaches a maximum height and then drop on the ground in a parabola shape.

Assuming the starting height is 0.0 m, calculate the potential energy of the cart after it has been elevated to a height of 0.5

Bogdan [553]

The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,

E = mgh

where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,

E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m

Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
