A sledge is pulled in a straight line by dogs, as shown. The dogs produce a total horizontal driving force of 600 N. The frictional force between the sledge and the surface is 150 N and the air resistance on the sledge is 450 N. What is the resultant force acting on the sledge

Answers

Answer:

F = 0 N

Explanation:

The direction of air resistance and frictional force will be same and opposite to the direction of the driving fore of dogs. Therefore, the resultant force can be given as follows:

[tex]resultant\ Force = F = Driving\ Force\ of\ Dogs - Frictional\ Force - Air\ Resistive\ Force[/tex]here,

driving force of dogs = 600 N

Frictional Force = 150 N

Resultant Force = 450 N

Therefore,

[tex]F = 600\ N - 150\ N- 450\ N[/tex]

F = 0 N

Applying the Law of Conservation of Energy. If a car was released down the track from a height what happens to the potential energy and Kinetic energy as the car goes down the ramp?

Answers

Answer:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed,  although it can be changed from one form to another.    KE + PE = constant. A simple example involves a stationary car at the top of a hill.  As the car coasts down the hill, it moves faster and so it’s kinetic energy increases and it’s potential energy decreases.  On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy.  In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started.

This law had to be combined with the law of conservation of mass when it was determined that mass can be inter-converted with energy.

One can also imagine the energy transformation in a pendulum.  When the ball is at the top of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is potential energy.   When the ball is at the bottom of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is kinetic energy.   The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms

The tree branch in the preceding problem sags, and the child's feet rest on the ground. If the tension in the rope is reduced to 220 N, what is the value of the normal force being exerted on the child's feet?

Answers

The complete question is

A 45-kg child sits on a 3.2-kg tire swing. The tension on the rope is 470 N. The tree branch sags and the child's feet rest on the ground. If the tension in the rope is reduced to 220 N, what is the value of the normal force being exerted on the child's feet?

Answer:

Therefore the Normal force is being exerted on the child's feet is 252.36( 250N).

Explanation:

We are given

mass of child = 45kg

mass of the tire = 3.2kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

We have the first case in which the tire is in swing so tension in that case will be which is the resultant force.

Fr = Resultant force

Ft =  Tension force

Fg= Gravitational force

Fr = Fg + Ft

0 = -mg + Ft

Ft = mg

   = (45+3.2)*9.8

   = 48.2 * 9.8

Ft = 472.36N  ( which is close to 470)

In the second case the child is in the rest position, The resultant force will be zero.

Fr = Ft + Fn + Fg  ( Normal force is denoted by Fn )

0 = Ft + Fn + Fg

Fn =  -Fg -Ft

Fn = mg -Ft

    = 472.36 - 220

Fn  = 252.36N  ( close to 250N)

Therefore the Normal force being exerted on the child's feet will be 252.36N.

How far from the base of the platform does she land? Answer and units of m.​

Answers

Answer:

(a) Let the height of the platform is h meter,

=>By s = ut + 1/2gt^2

=>h = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8 x (2.3)^2

=>h = 25.92 m

(b) By R = [Ux] x t

=>R = 2.47 x 2.3

=>R = 5.68 m

A. One skater must remain at rest.
B. Nothing is known about the final total momentum.
C. The final total momentum must equal zero.
D. Since they are on ice, this will not work. Neither can move.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps

Two ice skaters are at rest and facing each other. In order to move, they push off each other, then their net final total momentum must equal zero, therefore the correct answer is option C.

What is momentum?

It can be defined as the product of the mass and the speed of the particle, it represents the combined effect of mass and the speed of any particle, and the momentum of any particle is expressed in Kg m/s unit.

As given in the problem statement two ice skaters are at rest and facing each other. In order to move, they push off each other,  

By using the conservation of the momentum,

The initial total momentum of two skaters = the final total momentum of the skaters

Since, initially, they are at rest and their initial total momentum is zero  therefore the correct answer is option B

A baseball on the Moon and an identical baseball on the Earth are thrown vertically upward with the same initial velocity of 12 m/s. The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1/6 that of Earth. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon? What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth? What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

Answers

Answer:

a. 3.68 m b. 0.61 m c. 3.07 m

Explanation:

a. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon?

Using v² = u² - 2g'h where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height), g' = acceleration due to gravity on moon = g/6 where g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s², so g' = 9.8 m/s²/6 = 1.63 m/s² and h = maximum height of ball on moon.

So, making h subject of the formula, we have

h = -(v² - u²)/2g'

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(1.63 m/s²)

= 3.68 m

b. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth?

Using the same equation for the maximum height the baseball travels on the moon for that on the earth, the maximum height h' the baseball travels on the earth is given by  

h' = -(v² - u²)/2g where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height),  g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²and h' = maximum height of ball on moon.

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

= 0.61 m

c. What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

The difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth is d = h - h' = 3.68 m - 0.61 m = 3.07 m

(b) Calculate the sound level in dB at a seat that is 32 meters from the stage, given that the intensity decreases with the square of the distance from the source.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

[tex]0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]I_1[/tex] = Intensity of sound at 2 m away

Sound level = 120 dB

[tex]r_1[/tex] = 2 m

[tex]r_2[/tex] = 32 m

[tex]I_0[/tex] = Threshold of sound = [tex]10^{-12}\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

Sound level is given by

[tex]dB=10\log (\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})\\\Rightarrow I_1=10^{\dfrac{dB}{10}}I_0\\\Rightarrow I_1=10^{\dfrac{120}{10}}\times 10^{-12}\\\Rightarrow I_1=1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

The intensity of sound at 2 m away is [tex]1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

[tex]I_1=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}[/tex]

[tex]I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{I_1r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{1\times 2^2}{32^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

The intensity of the sound 32 m away is [tex]0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The Earth's rotation which produces Coriolis force is the responsing factor for the formation and movement of different global winds.

The cause of the global winds is due to the rotation of the earth that produces the Coriolis force factor for the formation and movement of global winds.

What are global wind patterns?

The global wind pattern is formed by the movement of the earth and they are polar easterlies, prevailing westerlies and the trade winds.

Each of them occurs at about 30 degrees of latitude. Hence they form wind belts. The Coriolis effect that is created due to the rotation of the earth is a fact that leads to the movement of global winds.

Sunlight used by plants in photosynthesis
Ceiling fan
Lightning striking the ground

Answers

Answer:

Ceiling fan

Explanation:

A ceiling fan is an example of electrical energy being converted to mechanical energy.

The blades of the fan are driven by motor within the system.

Energy in a system is converted from one form to the other. Energy is neither created nor destroyed as we know from the law of conservation of energy. In this regard, the electrical energy from the outlet powers the motor. As the motor inside the fan spins, the blade in turn begins to rotate. The motion of the blade is the expression of mechanical energy.
