Concept explainers
Force on a building A large building shaped like a box is 50 m high with a face that is 80 m wide. A strong wind blows directly at the face of the building, exerting a pressure of 150 N/m2 at the ground and increasing with height according to P(y) = 150 + 2y, where y is the height above the ground. Calculate the total force on the building, which is a measure of the resistance that must be included in the design of the building.

- A force of 62,125 pounds pulls on a steel rod that has a diameter of 1800 inches. Find the force pulling on 1 square inch of the cross-sectional area. Round the answer to the nearest pound.arrow_forwardA cylindrical container has a volume of 84 cubic inches and a radius of 3 inches. Find the height of the container.arrow_forwarda winch lifts a bag of sand of mass 12kg from the ground with a constant force of 240N until it reaches a speed of 10m/s. Then the winch provides a force to keep the bag moving at constant speed. Find the time taken to reach the height of 40m.arrow_forward
- Kaminksy bronze sculpture is 5 feet in diameter, which is approximately 1.524 meters. if the sculpture was made of solid bronze, it's weight could be approximated using the density of bronze (d=7700 kg/m^3), the volume V in cubic meters, the mass, M, in kilograms and applying the formula d= m/v. Approximately, how many pounds would the sculpture weigh if it was made of solid bronze. (1 kg ≈ 2.205lb)arrow_forwardA raindrop falls with acceleration 9.8 m/sec² , where "v" is its velocity. What is the raindrop's velocity? 29.4(1 – e3) m/sec 29.4(e- 1) m/sec 29.4(1 – e5) m/sec 32.2 (e- 1) m/secarrow_forwardAn anvil weighing 100kg falls a distance of 4.5 meters. What is the gravitational potential energy of the anvil?arrow_forward
- A component that provides resistance to the current flowing through an electrical circuit.arrow_forwardDuring a hockey match a forward shoots at goal and the ball is caught by the goalkeeper. When the ball hits the goalkeeper's glove it has a velocity of 42 m s-1. During the catch by the goalkeeper the force of the ball hitting the glove displaces the glove backwards by 22 cm after the ball has stopped moving. The mass of the hockey ball is 1 kg. Calculate: How much kinetic energy the ball posses immediately before it hits the glove. The work done by the goalkeeper when catching the ball. The impact force exerted by the goalkeeper's glove on the ball.arrow_forwardWhen jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 75-kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 6.4 m/s. (a) In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a halt in 2.0 ms. Find the average net force that acts on him during this time. (b) When he bends his knees, he comes to a halt in 0.10 s. Find the average net force now. (c) During the landing, the force of the ground on the man points upward, while the force due to gravity points downward. The average net force acting on the man includes both of these forces. Taking into account the directions of the forces, find the force of the ground on the man in parts (a) and (b).arrow_forward
- Number 6arrow_forwardPart E: Vectors MindBook decides to diversify their portfolio and invest in the "RoboMap" technology which is a robot that maps different types of territories. The new CEO is trying to make some drastic changes to some of the software and hardware systems in the new version of the robot. You have been hired by the opposing faction in the board to lead an investigation on how the performance of the robot is affected by the new proposed changes. a) The first system that you will test is the navigation system. The robot maps the territory by calculating distances and angles whilst moving between various locations. It then stores on its system the shortest direct path from initial location to the intended target. During the test the robot navigates around a muddy surface in the following path: 55cm [NW] and then moves 45cm [S30°W]. The robot sends back to the server the following overall shortest path: 70cm [W10°S]. Use triangle or parallelogram method to verify the precision of the…arrow_forward
