- A fire helicopter carries a 690-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20,0-mg long cable. Flying back from a fire at constant speed of 40.0 m/s, the cable makes an angle of 38.0 degrees with respect to the vertical. Determine the force exerted by air resistance on the bucket?A woman's car is stuck in the mud, so she uses a rope to connect the front bumper to a pole, and applies a perpendicular force f on the middle of the rope. The two halves of the rope are displaced through a small angle from the straight line between the ends of the rope. (a) Find an expression for the magnitude of the force acting on the car. (Use f and 8 as necessary.) F = (b) Evaluate the tension (in N) in the rope when 8 = 6.95° and f = 110 N. N6. An object with mass 2 kg is suspended from two points on the ceiling 15cm apart by two strings of length 8cm and 10cm. Find the tension in the string labeled t... 15 cm 8 cm 10 cm 2 kg
- A 2.75 kg block (mass 1) and a 5.00 kg block (mass 2) are connected by a light string as shown; the inclination of the ramp is 40.0°. Friction is negligible. 1 2 40° (a) What is the acceleration (in m/s) of each block? (Enter the magnitude.) -1.59 X m/s? (b) What is the tension (in N) in the string? NLegend has it that Archimedes was asked by King Hiero of Syracuse to determine whether a crown was pure gold or had been adulterated with a less valuable metal by an unscrupulous goldsmith. It was this problem that led Archimedes to the principle that bears his name. In a modern version of his method, a crown weighing 8.30 N is suspended underwater from a string.The tension in the string is measured to be 7.81 N. Is the crown pure gold?A 117 kg crate is sitting at the top of a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 28 degrees with respect to the horizontal. What is the magnitude of the normal force (in Newtons) acting on the box?
- The forces on an aircraft flying at altitude are shown in the picture. An F35 fighter jet has a mass m = 14,000 kg and its engines are capable of a maximum thrust TMAX = 190,000 N. (a) At a cruising speed of 250 m/s the air drag is 40,000 N. What is the maximum forward acceleration that the F35 can achieve? (b) This aircraft’s wings have a total cross-sectional area of 43 m2. What is the pressure difference between the upper and lower side of the wings required for the aircraft to fly at constant altitude? (Hint: the vertical forces must cancel.)A 10 kg mass is suspended from a ceiling and wall by three cords as shown. Find the tension T1 and T2 in cords 1 and 2.Two vehicles are on a level parking lot. The vehicle with a greater mass has a greater normal force. Why is that?
