Answer:
Mass, m = 26.54kg
Explanation:
Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.
Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;
Where;
- Fapp is the applied force
- Fg is the force due to gravitation
<u>Given the following data;</u>
Net force, Fnet = 345
Acceleration, a = 3.2m/s²
<u>To find mass;</u>
Fnet = Fapp + Fg
Fnet = ma + mg
Fnet = m(a+g)
m = Fnet/(a+g)
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8m/s²
Substituting into the equation, we have;
m = 345/(3.2 + 9.8)
m = 345/13
Mass, m = 26.54kg
<span>A gymnast with mass m1 = 43 kg is on a balance beam that sits on (but is not attached to) two supports. The beam has a mass m2 = 115 kg and length L = 5 m. Each support is 1/3 of the way from each end. Initially the gymnast stands at the left end of the beam.
1)What is the force the left support exerts on the beam?
2)What is the force the right support exerts on the beam?
3)How much extra mass could the gymnast hold before the beam begins to tip?
Now the gymnast (not holding any additional mass) walks directly above the right support.
4)What is the force the left support exerts on the beam?
5)What is the force the right support exerts on the beam?</span>
Answer:
(a) 61.25 N
(b) 6.25 kg
(c) 6.25 Kg
Explanation:
Weight on moon = 10 N
Acceleration due to gravity on moon = 1.6 m/s^2
Acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s^2
Let m be the mass of the package.
(a) Weight on earth = mass x acceleration due to gravity on earth
Weight on earth = 6.25 x 9.8 = 61.25 N
(b) Weight on moon = mass x acceleration due to gravity on moon
10 = m x 1.6
m = 6.25 kg
(c) Mass of the package remains same as mass does not change, so the mass of package on earth is 6.25 kg.
Answer:
Explanation:
Since work done is in the form of potential energy, we will use the formula of potential energy here.
We know that,
<h3>P.E. = mgh </h3>
Where,
m = mass = 20 kg
g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²
h = vertical height = 20 m
So,
<h3>Work done = mgh</h3>
Work done = (20)(10)(20)
Work done = 4000 joules
Work done = 4 kJ
Answer:
C
Explanation:
b is 55 miles per hour south or 55mph[South]
the important part to understand is that velocity is a vector meaning it also has to have a direction, in this case south. That is why a (2m/s) is not a velocity, however 2m/s is a speed.
