Answer:
F = 3.6 kN, direction is 9.6º to the North - East
Explanation:
The force is a vector, so one method to find the solution is to work with the components of the vector as scalars and then construct the resulting vector.
Let's use trigonometry to find the component of the forces, let's use a reference frame where the x-axis coincides with the East and the y-axis coincides with the North.
Wind
X axis
F₁ = 2.50 kN
Tide
cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂
sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂
F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30
F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30
F₂ₓ = 1.20cos 30 = 1.039 kN
F_{2y} = 1.20 sin 30 = 0.600 kN
the resultant force is
X axis
Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ
Fₓ = 2.50 +1.039
Fₓ = 3,539 kN
F_y = F_{2y}
F_y = 0.600
to find the vector we use the Pythagorean theorem
F =
F =
F = 3,589 kN
the address is
tan θ = F_y / Fₓ
θ = tan⁻¹
θ = tan⁻¹ 0.6 / 3.539
θ = 9.6º
the resultant force to two significant figures is
F = 3.6 kN
the direction is 9.6º to the North - East
Answer:
the work done by the 30N force is 4156.92 J.
For this problem, they don´t ask you to determine the work of the total force applied in the block. They only want the work done for the force of 30N, with an angle of 30º respectively of the displacement and a traveled distance of 160m. So:
W=F·s·cos(α)=30N·160m·cos(30º)=4156.92J
Answer:
The minimum compression is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the block is
The spring constant is
The coefficient of static friction is
For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis
Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as
And the force acting on the horizontal axis is force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as
where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping
Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject
substituting values we have
The solution for this problem is:
If they feel 50% of their weight that means that the
centripetal force is also 50% of their weight 1g - 0.5g = 0.5g
Then 0.5* 9.8m/s² * 18m = 88.2 would be v²
Then get the square root, the answer would be:
and v = 9.391 m/s is the answer.
