Chapter 7: Q. 17 (page 177)

What is the tension in the rope of FIGURE EX7.17?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The tension in the rope=588N

Step by step solution

01

Given information 

Weight applied to the rope=60kg

02

Explanation

The tension in the rope is equal to the weight applied by the human on the rope. Therefore the tension in the rope is

T=mgm=60kgg=9.8m/s2T=60kg9.8m/s2=588N

The tension in the rope is588.6N

A 50-cm-diameter, 400gbeach ball is dropped with a 4.0mgant riding on the top. The ball experiences air resistance, but the ant does not. What is the magnitude of the normal force exerted on the ant when the ball鈥檚 speed is 2.0m/s?

A 4.0kgbox is on a frictionless 35掳slope and is connected via a massless string over a massless, frictionless pulley to a hanging 2.0kgweight. The picture for this situation is similar to FIGURE P7.39.

a. What is the tension in the string if the 4.0kgbox is held in place, so that it cannot move?

b. If the box is then released, which way will it move on the slope?

c. What is the tension in the string once the box begins to move?

Your forehead can withstand a force of about 6.0kNbefore fracturing, while your cheekbone can withstand only about 1.3kN. Suppose a 140gbaseball traveling at 30m/sstrikes your head and stops in 1.5ms

a. What is the magnitude of the force that stops the baseball?

b. What force does the baseball exert on your head? Explain.

c. Are you in danger of a fracture if the ball hits you in the forehead? On the cheek?

While driving to work last year, I was holding my coffee mug in my left hand while changing the CD with my right hand. Then the cell phone rang, so I placed the mug on the flat part of my dashboard. Then, believe it or not, a deer ran out of the woods and on to the road right in front of me. Fortunately, my reaction time was zero, and I was able to stop from a speed of 20m/s in a mere 50m, just barely avoiding the deer. Later tests revealed that the static and kinetic coefficients of friction of the coffee mug on the dash are 0.50 and 0.30, respectively; the coffee and mug had a mass of 0.50kg; and the mass of the deer was 120kg. Did my coffee mug slide?
