X, Y and Z are the weights of three objects
suspended by pulleys as shown.
Assuming the pulleys in this system are frictionless
and weightless and that Z= 12 N, what are the
values of X and Y?
24°
50°
Х
Y
Z

Answers

Answer:

The weight of the object X is approximately 3.262 N (Acting downwards)

The weight of the object Y is approximately 8.733 N (Acting downwards)

Explanation:

The question can be answered based on the principle of equilibrium of forces  

The given parameters are;

The weight of Z = 12 N (Acting downwards)

The weight of the pulleys = Negligible

From the diagram;

The tension in the in the string attached to object Z = The weight of object Z = 12 N

The tension in the in the string attached to object X = The weight of the object X  

The tension in the in the string attached to object Y = The weight of the object Y

Given that the forces are in equilibrium, we have;

The sum of vertical forces acting at a point, [tex]\Sigma F_y[/tex] = 0

Therefore;

[tex]T_{1y} + T_{2y} + T_{3y} = 0[/tex]

[tex]T_{1y} = -( T_{2y} + T_{3y} )[/tex]

Where;

[tex]T_{1y}[/tex]  = The weight of object Z = 12 N

[tex]T_{1y}[/tex]  = 12 N

[tex]T_{2y}[/tex] = The vertical component of tension, T₂ = T₂ × sin(24°)

∴  [tex]T_{2y}[/tex] = T₂ × sin(156°)

Similarly;

[tex]T_{3y}[/tex] = T₃ × sin(50°)

From [tex]T_{1y} = -( T_{2y} + T_{3y} )[/tex], and [tex]T_{1y}[/tex]  = 12 N, we have;

12 N = -(T₂ × sin(156°) + T₃ × sin(50°))...(1)

Given that the forces are in equilibrium, we also have that the sum of vertical forces acting at a point, ∑Fₓ = 0

Therefore at point B, we have;

T₁ₓ + T₂ₓ + T₃ₓ = 0

The tension force, T₁, only has a vertical component, therefore;

∴ T₁ₓ = 0

∴ T₂ₓ + T₃ₓ = 0

T₂ₓ = -T₃ₓ

T₂ₓ =  T₂ × cos(156°)

T₃ₓ = T₃ × cos(50°)

From T₂ₓ = -T₃ₓ, we have;

T₂ × cos(156°) = - T₃ × cos(50°)...(2)

Making T₃ the subject of equation (1) and (2) gives;

Making T₃ the subject of equation in equation (1), we get;

12 = -(T₂ × sin(156°) + T₃ × sin(50°))

∴ T₃ = (-12 - T₂ × sin(156°))/(sin(50°))

Making T₃ the subject of equation in equation (2), we get;

T₂ × cos(156°) = - T₃ × cos(50°)

∴ T₃ = T₂ × cos(156°)/(-cos(50°))

Equating both values of T₃ gives;

(-12 - T₂ × sin(156°))/(sin(50°)) = T₂ × cos(156°)/(-cos(50°))

-12/(sin(50°)) = T₂ × cos(156°)/(-cos(50°)) + T₂ × sin(156°)/(sin(50°))

∴ T₂ = -12/(sin(50°))/((cos(156°)/(-cos(50°)) + sin(156°)/(sin(50°))) ≈ -8.02429905283

∴ T₂ ≈ -8.02 N

From T₃ = T₂ × cos(156°)/(-cos(50°)), we have;

T₃ = -8.02× cos(156°)/(-cos(50°)) = -11.3982199717

∴ T₃ ≈ -11.4 N

The weight of the object X = -T₂ × sin(156°)

∴ The weight of the object X ≈ -(-8.02 × sin(156°)) = 3.262 N

The weight of the object X ≈ 3.262 N (Acting downwards)

The weight of the object Y = -(T₃ × sin(50°))

∴ The weight of the object Y = -(-11.4 × sin(50°)) ≈ 8.733 N

The weight of the object Y ≈ 8.733 N (Acting downwards)

Answers

I’m pretty sure the answer is 622.751 Newton’s

Answer:

623.6N

Explanation:

There are 2.2 pounds in one kilogram, so you must divide 140 lb by 2.2 to convert the units to kilograms.

140/2.2 = 63.6 kg

The gravitational force also known as weight would equal mass times acceleration due to gravity.

Fg = (63.6 kg)(9.8 m/s^2) = 623.6N

Force = 125 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Area = 2.5 m²

To find the force applied;

Force = pressure * area

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Force = 50 * 2.5

Force = 125 Newton

What is the acceleration of a 24 kg mass pushed by an 8 N force?

Answers

Answer:

0.25 m/s squared

Explanation:

Mass of the body (m)= 24kg

Applied force on the body(F)= 6N

Acceleration of the body (a)= ?

Solution

F = ma

a = F/m

a = 6N/24kg

a = 0.25m/s^2

Answer: The acceleration of the body is 0.25m/s^2

I hope this helps

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf a=\frac {1}{3} \ m/s^2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Force is the product of mass and acceleration.

[tex]F=ma[/tex]

The mass is 24 kilograms and the force is 8 Newtons. Let's convert the Newtons to make the problem easier.

1 Newton is equal to 1 kilogram meter per square second. The force of 8 N equals 8 kg*m/s²

Substitute the known values into the formula.

[tex]8 \ kg*m/s^2= (24 \ kg )*a[/tex]

Since we are solving for a, we must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 24 kilograms.

[tex]\frac {8 \ kg*m/s^2}{24 \ kg}= \frac{(24 \ kg )*a}{24 \ kg}[/tex]

The kilograms will cancel, hence our earlier unit conversion.

[tex]\frac {8 \ m/s^2}{24 }= a[/tex]

[tex]\frac {1}{3} \ m/s^2=a[/tex]

The acceleration is 1/3 meter per square second.

How would the force of gravity between two objects change if the mass of
each object were doubled?
A. The force between them would be 2 times larger than with the
initial masses.
B. The force between them would be 1/4 the force with the initial
separation.
C. The force between them would be 4 times larger than with the
initial masses.
D. The force between them would be 1/2 the force with the initial
separation

Answers

Answer:

Option C. The force between them would be 4 times larger than with the

initial masses.

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall determine the force of attraction between the two masses when their masses are doubled. This can be obtained as follow:

From:

F = GMₐM₆/ r²

Keeping G/r² constant, we have

F₁ = MₐM₆

Let the initial mass of both objects to be m

F₁ = MₐM₆

F₁ = m × m

F₁ = m²

Next, let the masses of both objects doubles i.e 2m

F₂ = MₐM₆

F₂ = 2m × 2m

F₂ = 4m²

Compare the initial and final force

Initial force (F₁) = m²

Final (F₂) = 4m²

F₂ / F₁ = 4m² / m²

F₂ / F₁ = 4

F₂ = 4F₁ = 4m²

From the above illustrations, we can see that when the mass of both objects doubles, the force between them would be 4 times larger than with the

initial masses.

Thus, option C gives the correct answer to the question.

Two objects have a gravitational force of 800 N. If they are moved twice as far apart and the mass of one object doubles, what is the new gravitational force?

Answers

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

From the question,

F = kmm'/r²........................ Equation 1

Where F = gravitation force, m and m' = mass 1 and mass 2 respectively, r = distance between the masses.

Given; F = 800 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

800 = kmm'/r².............. Equation 2

If the distance is doubled (2r), and one of the mass is doubled (2m), The new force is

F' = k(2m)(m')/(2r)²

F' = 2kmm'/4r²

F' = kmm'/2r²................. Equation 3

Comparing equation 2 and equation 3

F' = F/2............................ Equation 4

Substitute the value of F into equation 4

F' = 800/2

F' = 400 N

It forms part of the Continental Divide. On Triple Divide Peak, the Continental Divide meets the Northern Divide. Here, water can flow to the Atlantic, Pacific, or Arctic Oceans. Fortunately, people have left the park almost unchanged. The different plants, rare and endangered species, and vast water resources of Glacier National Park make its protection a top priority. In 1932, Rotary Clubs from Canada and the United States worked together to protect Glacier National Park and Canada's Waterton Lakes National Park. Combined, the parks form the first international peace park in the world. Glacier is also designated by UNESCO as a biosphere reserve and world heritage site.Glacier National Park experiences extreme weather changes. Conditions alter as the elevation increases. The warm air of the Pacific Ocean brings precipitation to the western part of the park. In contrast, the Arctic Ocean's cold air makes the northeastern side drier. The air from the Pacific Ocean and Arctic Ocean can collide on the Continental Divide. A blizzard can develop. As a result, these mountains can have 100 inches of annual snowfall. The clashing winds also contribute to extreme temperature changes. A nearby town holds the world record for temperature change. In 1916, Browning's temperature decreased by 100 degrees Fahrenheit in one day! Glacier National Park is indeed a place of contrasts.Glacier National Park's unique combination of lush vegetation, endangered wildlife, and splendid natural landscapes attracts diverse people. Scientists research the impact of global warming on the shrinking glaciers. Interested people learn about Native American traditions. Many visitors drive the popular Going-to-the-Sun Road or take a boat tour to experience a land carved by glaciers.
