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
Answer:
F = 0.535 N
Explanation:
Let's use the concepts of energy, at the highest and lowest point of the trajectory
Higher
Em₀ = U = mg y
Lower
= K = ½ m v²
Emo =
mg y = ½ m v2
v = √ 2gy
y = L - L cos θ
v = √ (2g L (1-cos θ))
Now let's use Newton's second law n at the lowest point where the acceleration is centripetal
F = ma
a = v² / r
In turning radius is the cable length r = L
F = m 2g (1-cos θ)
Let's calculate
F = 2 1.25 9.8 (1 - cos 12)
F = 0.535 N
Answer:
The terminal speed of this object is 12.6 m/s
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the object, m = 80 kg
The magnitude of drag force is,

The terminal speed of an object is attained when the gravitational force is balanced by the gravitational force.



On solving the above quadratic equation, we get two values of v as :
v = 12.58 m/s
v = -15.58 m/s (not possible)
So, the terminal speed of this object is 12.6 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
