You are using a rope to lift a 14.5 kg crate of fruit. Initially you are lifting the crate at 0.500 m/s. You then increase the t

ension in the rope to 150 N and lift the crate an additional 1.15 m. During this d motion, how much work is done on the crate by the tension force?

Answer:

W = 172.5 J

Explanation:

given,                                    

mass of the fruit crate = 14.5 kg

initial velocity to lift = 0.500 m/s

increase in the tension = 150 N

lift of crate = 1.15 m                  

work done by the tension = ?        

work done  = force x displacement

W = F s cos θ                                

θ = 0°                                    

W = F s x cos 0                                  

W = 150 x 1.15 x 1                

W = 172.5 J                                      

Work done on the crate by the tension force = W = 172.5 J

A 1000-kg car is slowly picking up speed as it goes around a horizontal curve whose radius is 100 m. The coefficient of static f
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

18.5 m/s

Explanation:

On a horizontal curve, the frictional force provides the centripetal force that keeps the car in circular motion:

\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

\mu is the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

g is the gravitational acceleration

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

Re-arranging the equation,

v=\sqrt{\mu gr}

And by substituting the data of the problem, we find the speed at which the car begins to skid:

v=\sqrt{(0.350)(9.8 m/s^2)(100 m)}=18.5 m/s

A quarterback throws a football at 40km/hr to a receiver 50yd away. How much time does it take the ball to reach the receiver
Akimi4 [234]

Given:

Distance = 50 yard = 45.72 meter

Speed = 40 km/hr = 11.11 m/s

To find:

Time required by ball to reach the receiver = ?

Formula used:

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Solution:

The speed of the ball is given by,

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

Thus,

Time = \frac{distance}{speed}

Distance = 50 yard = 45.72 meter

Speed = 40 km/hr = 11.11 m/s

Time = 4.12 second

Hence, ball reaches the receiver in 4.12 second.

An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's
ivolga24 [154]
1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i} (1)
where 
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, d_o = 18 cm, while d_i=-4 cm (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}
from which we find
f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm

How much power does it take to lift a 24 kg gift box 6m above the floor in 4 s?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

<h2>5.6kW</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

mass m= 24kg

distance moved= 6m

time taken= 4seconds

Step two:

Required

power

but work done is the force applied at a distance, and the power is the work done time the time taken

Work done= F*D

F=mg

W= mg*D

W=24*9.81*6

W=1412.6J

Power P= work * time

P=1412.6*4

p=5650.5W

P=5.6kW

Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: a=gsinθ−μkgcosθ, where g=9.80meter/
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Analysis of structure gives

a=gsinθ−μkgcosθ

Notice that all the expression are right but we want to know of we can simplify the expression further.

We want to analyse if we can still further simplify the expression,

Inspecting the Right hand side of the equation, we notice that the acceleration due to gravity is common to both side, so we can bring it out i.e.

So option a is wrong because the expression can be simplified further to

a=g(sinθ−μkcosθ)

Option b is right and the best option.

Since we are given that, g=9.8m/s²

We can as well substitute that to option a

So we will have

a=9.8metre/second²(sinθ−μkcosθ)

Also option C is correct but it is not best inserting the values of g directly without simplifying the expression first

So it will have been the best option if it was written as

a=9.8metre/second²(sinθ−μkcosθ)

So the best option is B.
