A pump jack scaffold must be fitted with two ______ gripping mechanisms to prevent slippage.

1 answer:

5 0

A pump jack scaffold must be fitted with two positive gripping mechanisms to prevent slippage. Pump jacks are a uniquely designed scaffold consisting of a platform supported by movable brackets on vertical poles. The brackets are designed to be raised and lowered in a manner similar to an automobile jack. It is important to make sure that pump jack brackets have two positive gripping mechanisms to prevent any failure or slippage.

What type of equilibrium is guaranteed by each condition of equilibrium

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: Conditions for equilibrium require that the sum of all external forces acting on the body is zero (first condition of equilibrium), and the sum of all external torques from external forces is zero (second condition of equilibrium). These two conditions must be simultaneously satisfied in equilibrium

Suppose two astronauts on a spacewalk are floating motionless in space, 3.0 m apart. Astronaut B tosses a 15.0 kg IMAX camera to

marta [7]

Answer:

$\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}$

(we need the mass of the astronaut A)

Explanation:

We can solve this by using the conservation law of the linear momentum P. First we need to represent every mass as a particle. Also we can simplify this system of particles by considering only the astronaut A with an initial speed $v_{iA}$ of 0 m/s and a mass $m_{A}$ and the IMAX camera with an initial speed $v_{ic}$ of 7.5 m/s and a mass $m_{c}$ of 15.0 kg.

The law of conservation says that the linear momentum P (the sum of the products between all masses and its speeds) is constant in time. The equation for this is:

$P_{i}=p_{ic}+p_{iA}\\P_{i}=m_{c}v_{ic}+m_{A} v_{iA}\\P_{i}=15*7.5 + m_{A}*0\\P_{i}=112.5 \frac{kg.m}{s}$

By the law of conservation we know that $P_{i} =P_{f}$

For $P_{f}$ (final linear momentum) we need to treat the collision as a plastic one (the two particles stick together after the encounter).

So:

$P_{i} =P_{f}=112.5\\$

$112.5=(m_{c}+m_{A})v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{m_{c}+m_{A}}=v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}$
