I've been working on this question for quite a while and I've tried several methods with no success. I am no where near confident in my method and I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. The question is:
A 16.5 cm diameter circular cover is placed over a 8.0 cm...
If one person pulls harder, the other person would most likely move. I would think that the tension in the rope would be the larger pull, but that doesn't really make sense either.
I know that if two people are pulling on a rope with the same force, the tension in the rope is the force that one of them is pulling at because the rope is pulling back or something like that. I don't really understand how this concept works. What happens if they are pulling on the rope with...
1. Jimmy has caught two fish in Yellow Creek. He has tied the line holding the 3.40 kg steelhead trout to the tail of the 2.34 kg carp. To show the fish to a friend, he lifts upward on the carp with a force of 77.4 N. What is the tension of the ropes connecting the steel trout and carp?
I...
The program that I am imputing the answers into still tells me that I don't have the correct answer, so I think that it might be missing something still.
That makes sense, but following the same steps using net force as applied-gravity (net force= 2.712N), I get d to be 24.4 m, which is still not the correct answer.
Hi, I've been working on my homework assignment, and there are a couple tricky questions that I hope someone can give me a few pointers on.
Question:
Compressed air is used to fire a 60 g ball vertically upward from a 5.3 m tall tube. The air exerts an upward force of 3.3 N on the ball as...
