A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "50.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

50.0 N without breaking. What is the weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in (a) at constant speed and (b) with an acceleration whose magnitude is 2.98 m/s2?

Answer:(a) 50 N

(b)38.34 N

Explanation:

Given

Maximum tension(T) in line 50 N

(a)If line is moving up with constant velocity i.e. there is no acceleration

This will happen when Tension is equal to weight of Fish

T-mg=0

T=mg

Maximum weight in this case will be 50 N

(b)acceleration of magnitude 2.98 m/s^2

T-mg=ma

50=m\left ( g+a\right )

50=m\left ( 12.78\right )

m=3.91

Therefore weight is 3.91\times 9.8=38.34 N

Answer:

d = 2021.6 km

Explanation:

We can solve this distance exercise with vectors, the easiest method s to find the components of the position of each plane and then use the Pythagorean theorem to find distance between them

Airplane 1

Height   y₁ = 800m

Angle θ = 25°

           cos 25 = x / r

           sin 25 = z / r

           x₁ = r cos 20

           z₁ = r sin 25

          x₁ = 18 103 cos 25 = 16,314 103 m = 16314 m

          z₁ = 18 103 sin 25 = 7,607 103 m= 7607 m

2 plane

Height   y₂ = 1100 m

Angle θ = 20°

          x₂ = 20 103 cos 25 = 18.126 103 m = 18126 m

          z₂ = 20 103 without 25 = 8.452 103 m = 8452 m

The distance between the planes using the Pythagorean Theorem is

         d² = (x₂-x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)² + (z₂-z₁)²2

Let's calculate

        d² = (18126-16314)²  + (1100-800)² + (8452-7607)²

        d² = 3,283 106 +9 104 + 7,140 105

        d² = (328.3 + 9 + 71.40) 10⁴

        d = √(408.7 10⁴)

        d = 20,216 10² m

        d = 2021.6 km

A uniform 1.0-N meter stick is suspended horizontally by vertical strings attached at each end. A 2.0-N weight is suspended from
fgiga [73]

Answer:

3.5 N

Explanation:

Let the 0-cm end be the moment point. We know that for the system to be balanced, the total moment about this point must be 0. Let's calculate the moment at each point, in order from 0 to 100cm

- Tension of the string attached at the 0cm end is 0 as moment arm is 0

- 2 N weight suspended from the 10 cm position: 2*10 = 20 Ncm clockwise

- 2 N weight suspended from the 50 cm position: 2*50 = 100 Ncm clockwise

- 1 N stick weight at its center of mass, which is 50 cm position, since the stick is uniform: 1*50 = 50 Ncm clockwise

- 3 N weight suspended from the 60 cm position: 3*60 = 180 Ncm clockwise

- Tension T (N) of the string attached at the 100-cm end: T*100 = 100T Ncm counter-clockwise.

Total Clockwise moment = 20 + 100 + 50 + 180 = 350Ncm

Total counter-clockwise moment = 100T

For this to balance, 100 T = 350

so T = 350 / 100 = 3.5 N

Pamela drove her car 999999 kilometers and used 999 liters of fuel. she wants to know how many kilometers (k)(k)left parenthesis
Vanyuwa [196]
When the relationship between two variables are said to be proportional, it means that one variable is a constant multiple of the other variable. They are related by a constant of proportionality, usually denoted as k. 

In this problem, the dependent variable is the distance in kilometers. Your mileage is limited with the amount of fuel you have. Thus, the independent variable is the liters of fuel. When these two are proportional, it could be expressed as

distance = k * liters of fuel, such that 
distance/liters of fuel = k

By variation,

distance,1/liters of fuel,1 = distance,2/liters of fuel,2, where 1 denotes situation 1 and 2 denotes situation 2. Therefore,

 999999 km /<span>999 liters =  x km /</span><span>121212 liters, where x is the unknown distance. We can now therefore find the value of x.

x = (999999*121212)/999
x = 121333212 kilometers</span>

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can
gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
