Bathroom scales read the normal force that is exerted against the floor. What would a scale read when a 100 kg man is in an elevator accelerating upward at 1.2 m/s2? What would it read when the man is accelerated downward at 1.8 m/s2?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

When the lift is moving upward   [tex]F = 1120 \ N[/tex]

b

When the lift is moving downward   [tex]F = 820 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The mass of the man is [tex]m = 100 \ kg[/tex]

     The upward acceleration is  [tex]a_u = 1.2 \ m/s^ 2[/tex]

     The downward acceleration is  [tex]a_d = 1.80 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Generally the force which the scale will read  when the man is moving downward is according to Newton second law represented as  

      [tex]F + mg = ma[/tex]

        [tex]F = m (g - a_d)[/tex]

Here [tex]g = 10 m/s^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]F = 100 (10 - 1.8)[/tex]

=>     [tex]F = 820 \ N[/tex]

Generally the force which the scale will read  when the man is moving upward  is according to Newton second law represented as  

       [tex]F - mg = ma[/tex]

        [tex]F = m (g + a_u)[/tex]

Here [tex]g = 10 m/s^2[/tex]

=>     [tex]F = 100 (10 + 1.2)[/tex]

=>     [tex]F = 1120 \ N[/tex]

Complete Question

A baseball is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stop watch measures the ball's time in the air until it hits the ground to be 4.3 s. How far does the baseball travel horizontally?

Answer:

The distance covered horizontally is  [tex]d = 43 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The initial horizontal velocity is  [tex]u = 10 \ m/s[/tex]

     The time taken by the ball in the air is  [tex]t = 4.3 \ s[/tex]

Generally the distance traveled by the ball is  

       [tex]d = u * t[/tex]

=>     [tex]d = 10 * 4.3[/tex]

=>     [tex]d = 43 \ m[/tex]

A weight lifter is trying to lift a 1,500 N weight but can apply a force of only 1,200 N on the weight. One of his friends helps him lift it at a constant velocity. What force was applied to the rope

Answers

Answer:

400N is applied to the rope

Answer:

300N

Explanation:

Assuming his friend didn't throw the box, they would need a total of 1,500N to lift it, if the first person is already applying 1,200N, the only other amount of force needed is 300N to make a total of 1,500N! Simple math problem :)

A motor with a resistance of 320 is connected to a voltage source. Four amps of current flows
in the circuit. What is the voltage of the source?
I

Answers

Answer:

V = 1280 [V]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the resistance by the current.

Therefore we have:

V = I*R

where:

V =  voltage [V] (Units of volts)

I = current = 4 [amp]

R = resistance = 320 [ohms]

V = 4*320

V = 1280 [V]

A methodology for designing mechanical non-uniform motion generators is presented. The basic requirements for four-bar and six-bar linkages are established and it is shown how the performance can be evaluated by harmonic analysis applied to the output angular velocity function. A means of creating and searching a library of mechanisms based on normalized output functions is presented. B-spline curves are used as a means of defining a desired performance and it is shown how minimum acceleration can be achieved with continuity in the derivatives. Finally, a means of increasing the quality of motion transmission in the selected mechanisms is given. The techniques are used to synthesize a six-bar linkage.

unknown size). Francisco the penguin hits the same turtle with a force of magnitude three times

greater than Ramona's force (3F). What will the resulting acceleration of the turtle be? Answer in

terms of a. Support your answer with reasoning and reference to Newton's Second Law.

Answers

Answer:

a' = 3a

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law gives the magnitude of the unbalanced force applied to an object as follows:

F = ma

where,

F = Force Applied

m = Mass of Object

a = acceleration

FOR RAMONA'S PUSH:

F = F

m = m

a = a

Therefore,

F = ma  

a = F/m   ---------------- equation (1)

FOR FRANSICO'S PUSH:

F = 3F

m = m  (mass of turtle will be same)

a = a'

Therefore,

3F = ma'  

a' = 3F/m

using equation 1

a' = 3a

A 200 g blob of clay moves with a speed of 10 m/s towards a 300 g cart that is initially at rest.

a. What is the momentum of the system before the blob of clay strikes the cart?

b. What must be the momentum of the system after they come together?

c. If the blob of clay sticks to the cart, with what speed will the clay and cart move after they come together?

Answers

Answer:

a. 2 kg*m/s

b. [tex]p_{T_{f}} = 0.5v_{f} = 2 kg*m/s[/tex]

c. 4 m/s

Explanation:

a. The momentum of the system ([tex]p_{Ti}[/tex]) before the blob of clay strikes the cart is:

[tex] p_{Ti} = p_{b} + p_{c} [/tex]

Where:

[tex]p_{b}[/tex] is the momentum of the blob clay

[tex]p_{c}[/tex] is the momentum of the car      

[tex] p_{Ti} = m_{b}v_{b} + m_{c}v_{c} [/tex]

Since the car is initially at rest, [tex]v_{c}[/tex] = 0

[tex] p_{Ti} = 200 g*\frac{1 kg}{1000 g}*10 m/s + 0 = 2 kg*m/s [/tex]

b. The momentum of the system after they come together:

[tex]p_{T_{f}} = m_{b}v_{b} + m_{c}v_{c}[/tex]

Since they come together, [tex]v_{b}[/tex] =

[tex]p_{T_{f}} = v_{f}(m_{b} + m_{c}) = v_{f}(0.2 kg + 0.3 kg) = 0.5v_{f}[/tex]   (1)

Because we do not have the final speed we can not calculate the final momentum.

                   

c. We can find the speed of the clay and car by conservation of the momentum:

[tex] p_{i} = p_{f} [/tex]

The initial momentum of the system was founded in part "a" (p = 2 kg*m/s), so we have:

[tex] 2 kg*m/s = m_{b}v_{b_{f}} + m_{c}v_{c_{f}} [/tex]

Again, when they come together, the final speed is the same:

[tex] 2 kg*m/s = v_{f}(m_{b} + m_{c}) [/tex]                

[tex] v_{f} = \frac{2 kg*m/s}{0.2 kg + 0.3 kg} = 4 m/s [/tex]

Now, since we found the final speed we can calculate the momentum of the system after they come together (equation 1):        

[tex] p_{T} = 0.5v_{f} = 0.5 kg*4m/s = 2 kg*m/s [/tex]

I hope it helps you!

Abdul of mass 50 kg is standing in an elevator of his building. The elevator is moving
upwards and is slowing down at a rate of 2.0 m/s? What is Abdul's apparent weight?
Use g = 10 m/s

Answers

Answer:

Abdul has an apparent weight of 600 newtons.

Explanation:

The statement is incorrectly written. Its correct form is:

Abdul of mass 50 kg is standing in an elevator of his building. The elevator is moving upwards and is slowing down at a rate of 2.0 m/s2. What is Abdul's apparent weight? Use g = 10 m/s2.

According to the statement, we know that elevator and Abdul himself are moving upwards and decelerating, which means that Abdul feels a force from elevator is the same direction of his weight. From 2nd Newton's Law we find the following equation of equilibrium:

[tex]\Sigma F = F-m\cdot g = m\cdot a[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]F[/tex] - Apparent weight, measured in newtons.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of Abdul, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]a[/tex] - Net acceleration of the elevator-Abdul system, measured in meters per square second.

In (1) we clear the apparent weight:

[tex]F = m \cdot (a+g)[/tex]

If we know that [tex]m = 50\,kg[/tex], [tex]a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]g = 10\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex], we find that the apparent weight of Abdul is:

[tex]F = (50\,kg)\cdot \left(2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}+10\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]F = 600\,N[/tex]

Abdul has an apparent weight of 600 newtons.

Un delfín nada en el mar, a una profundidad tal que experimenta es de 2,22 x 10⁵ PA. Si la densidad del agua del mar es de 1030kg/m³, ¿A qué profundidad nada el delfín?

Answers

Answer:

El delfín nada a una profundidad de 22 m

Explanation:

El principio fundamental de la hidrostática establece que la presión en un punto del interior de un fluido (presión hidrostática) es directamente proporcional a su densidad, a la profundidad que se encuentre dicho punto y a la gravedad del sitio en el que se encuentre el fluido.

Esto se expresa como:

P=ρ⋅g⋅h

donde:

P es la presión en un punto del fluido. ρ es la densidad del fluido .g es la gravedad del lugar donde se encuentre el fluido. h es la profundidad.

En este caso:

P= 2.22*10⁵ Paρ= 1,030 [tex]\frac{kg}{m^{3} }[/tex]g= 9.8 [tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]h= ?

Reemplazando:

2.22*10⁵ Pa= 1,030 [tex]\frac{kg}{m^{3} }[/tex] * 9.8 [tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex] * h

Resolviendo:

[tex]h=\frac{2.22*10^{5} Pa}{1,030\frac{kg}{m^{3} }*9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }}[/tex]

h= 21.993 m ≅ 22 m

A satellite is orbiting the Earth in a circular orbit of radius r. Its frequency is independent of its height above the surface of the Earth. a. TRUE b. FALSE

Answers

Answer:

a. TRUE

Explanation:

When a satellite is launched to orbit around earth, it has to produce its own artificial gravity by performing rotations. The frequency of this rotation is given by the following formula:

f = √[ac/4πR²]

where,

f = frequency

ac = centripetal acceleration

R = Radius of the satellite

Therefore, it is clear from this formula that the frequency of rotation of the satellite is independent of its height above the surface of earth. So, the correct option is:

a. TRUE

A 25 N force is used to push a box across a floor against a frictional force of 14 N. The box
accelerates from rest to a speed of 4 m/s in 16 s. What is the mass of the box?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m = 44~Kg[/tex]

Explanation:

Net Force

Newton's second law explains the dynamics principles when a number of forces are applied to an object.

The net force vector is the sum of the individual vector forces applied. The magnitude of the net force is related to the magnitude of the acceleration of the body as follows:

[tex]Fn=m.a[/tex]

Furthermore, the acceleration can be calculated if we know the kinematic behavior of the body:

[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}[/tex]

Where vf, vo, and t are the final speed, initial speed, and time, respectively.

The box is pushed across the floor with a force of 25 N against a frictional force of 14 N.

The net force applied to the box is:

[tex]Fn = 25 N - 14 N = 11 N[/tex]

We also know the box is accelerated from rest (vo=0) to vf=4 m/s in t=16 seconds, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{4-0}{16}[/tex]

[tex]a = 0.25~m/s^2[/tex]

From the equation:

[tex]Fn=m.a[/tex]

We solve for m:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{Fn}{a}=\frac{11~N}{0.25~m/s^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{m = 44~Kg}[/tex]

Parker (73.2 kg) is being dragged down the hall with an applied force of 123 N. If the frictional force is 27.4 N, what is the coefficient of friction in the hall?

Answers

Answer:

The coefficient of friction in the hall is 0.038

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the Parker, m = 73.2 kg

applied force on the parker, F = 123 N

frictional force, Fs = 27.4 N

the coefficient of friction in the hall = ?

frictional force is given by;

Fs = μN

Where;

μ is the coefficient of friction

N is normal reaction = mg

Fs = μmg

μ = Fs / mg

μ = (27.4) / (73.2 x 9.8)

μ = 0.038

Therefore, the coefficient of friction in the hall is 0.038
