Referencing the diagram below, we can deduce from the geometry that x = 2.5 - 0.55 = 1.95 m, leading to cos θ = 1.95/2.5 = 0.78. Therefore, θ = cos⁻¹ 0.78 = 38.74°. According to the free body diagram, the tension in the chain measures 450 N. Here, F denotes the centripetal force and W signifies Dee's weight. The tension's components are as follows: Horizontal component = 450 sin(38.74°) = 281.6 N, directed to the left, and Vertical component = 450 cos(38.74°) = 351.0 N, directed upward. Answers: Horizontal: 281.6, directed left. Vertical: 351.0 N, directed upward.

An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0 km/hour is blowing southward.
Softa [2943]

Answer:

The plane's speed in relation to the ground is 300.79 km/h.

Explanation:

Provided details include:

Wind speed = 75.0 km/hr

Plane's airspeed = 310 km/hr

Next, we must find the ground speed of the plane

Calculating the angle

Using the angle formula

\sin\theta=\dfrac{v'}{v}

Where v' represents the wind speed

v represents the plane's speed

We will substitute the values into the formula

\sin\theta=\dfrac{75}{310}

\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{75}{310})

\theta=14.0^{\circ}

Now, we must find the resultant speed

Using the resultant speed formula

\cos\theta=\dfrac{v''}{v}

Insert the values into the formula

\cos14=\dfrac{v''}{310}

v''=\cos14\times310

v''=300.79\ km/h

Consequently, the plane's speed in relation to the ground equals 300.79 km/h.

ValentinkaMS [3354]
In this scenario, the principles of momentum conservation can be applied since there are no external forces acting on the system. Consequently, the conservation of momentum principle is applicable here. After the bird lands on it, both the bird and the bark will have a unified final speed. Thus, this final speed will be 1 m/s.

Use the formula t = (0.25) s1/2 to find the time t in seconds it will take a stone to drop a distance s of 200 feet. Round your
inna [2995]

Answer:

The duration, t = 3.53 seconds

Explanation:

The following information is provided:

The equation to calculate the time t is expressed as:

t=(0.25)s^{1/2}...... (1)

Where

s denotes the distance in feet

We are to determine the duration taken by the stone to fall a distance of 200 feet, where s = 200 feet

Substituting the value of s into equation (1) yields:

t=(0.25)\times (200)^{1/2}

t = 3.53 seconds

Thus, the time taken by the object is 3.53 seconds, which provides the required answer.

A hot air balloon of total mass M (including passengers and luggage) is moving with a downward acceleration of magnitude a. As i
inna [2995]

Answer:

The ratio of mass that is discarded is determined by this equation:

M - m = (3a/2)/(g²- (a²/2) - (ag/2))

Explanation:

The force acting on an object in motion is defined by the equation:

F = ma

Additionally, there is a gravitational force consistently acting downwards on the object, defined as g = 9.8 ms⁻²

For convenience, we will utilize a positive notation for downward acceleration and a negative notation for upward acceleration.

Case 1:

The hot air balloon has mass = M

Acceleration = a

Upward thrust from hot air = F = constant

Gravitational force acting downward = Mg

The net force on the balloon can be expressed as:

Ma = Gravitational force - Upward Force                              

Ma = Mg - F                      (since the balloon moves downward, that means Mg > F)

F = Mg - Ma

F = M (g-a)

M = F/(g-a)

Case 2:

After releasing the ballast, the new mass becomes m. The new upward acceleration is -a/2:

The net force is expressed as:

-m(a/2) = mg - F        (The balloon is moving upwards, hence F > mg)

F = mg + m(a/2)

F = m(g + (a/2))

m = F/(g + (a/2))

Determining the fraction of the mass initially dropped:

M-m = \frac{F}{g-a} - \frac{F}{g+\frac{a}{2} }\\M-m = F*[\frac{1}{g-a} - \frac{1}{g+\frac{a}{2} }]\\M-m = F*[\frac{(g+(a/2)) - (g-a)}{(g-a)(g+(a/2))} ]\\M-m = F*[\frac{g+(a/2) - g + a)}{(g-a)(g+(a/2))} ]\\M-m = F*[\frac{(3a/2)}{g^{2}-\frac{a^{2}}{2}-\frac{ag}{2}} ]
