Answer:

option D.

Explanation:

The correct choice is option D.

For an object in equilibrium, the torque measured at any point will be zero.

An object is deemed to be in equilibrium when the net moment acting on it equals zero.

If the object experiences a net moment not equal to zero, it will rotate and will not remain stable.

Answer:

The answer to the specified question will be "\mu_{s}=\frac{T_{m}Cos\theta}{M_{g}-T_{m}Sin\theta}".

Explanation:

Referring to the question,

\sum F_{x}

⇒  TCos \theta-F_{s}=0

⇒  T_{m}Cos \theta =F_{s}...(equation 1)

\sum F_{y}

⇒  TSin \theta+F_{N}=m_{g}

⇒  M_{g}-TSin \theta=F_{N}...(equation 2)

Now,

From equation 1 and equation 2, we conclude

⇒  T_{m} Cos \theta = \mu_{s}F_{N}

By substituting the value of F_{N}, we derive

⇒  T_{m} Cos\theta = \mu_{s}(M_{g}-T_{m}Sin \theta)

⇒  \mu_{s}=\frac{T_{m}Cos\theta}{M_{g}-T_{m}Sin\theta}

kicyunya [3294]
The resulting motion can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem, as the two components (north and east) are at right angles. To find the direction, trigonometry is applied, yielding Ф=arctan(3.8/12)=17.57° north of east.

Yuliya22 [3333]
Objects will stay in a stationary position if the total force acting on them amounts to zero; this occurs when equal forces are applied in opposite directions. According to Newton's second law, if the net force on an object is zero, it will not move.

A ski lift is used to transport people from the base of a hill to the top. If the lift leaves the base at a velocity of 15.5 m/s
Yuliya22 [3333]
This can be determined using the principle of energy conservation. The ski lift begins with a velocity of v= 15.5 m/s, and all of its kinetic energy Ek converts into potential energy Ep, thus we set Ep equal to Ek.
Because Ek is given by (1/2)*m*v², where m denotes mass and v represents speed, while Ep equals m*g*h, where m is mass, g is 9.81 m/s², and h is height. Now:

Ek=Ep 

(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, canceling out the mass,

(1/2)*v²=g*h, rearranging for height by dividing by g,

(1/2*g)*v²=h and substituting the values:

h=12.245 m. The hill's height rounded to the nearest tenth is h=12.25 m.
