Two people are carrying a uniform wooden board that is 4.00 m long and weighs 180N. If one person applies an upward force equal to 80 N at one end, at what point does the other person lift?
m (distance from point of application of 80 N force)
I am thinking because of the the fact that...
m and M are both mass one will lose potential energy the other will gain, but that really doesn't help me. As I can't visualize that, maybe if you helped me by putting in an equation or formula I would understand. As simply writing a one sentence response does not seem to work and is quite...
Two blocks with different mass are attached to either end of a light rope that passes over a light, frictionless pulley that is suspended from the ceiling. The masses are released from rest, and the more massive one starts to descend. After this block has descended 1.24 m, its speed is 3.27 m/s...
In an experiment, one of the forces exerted on a proton is F = −αx^2i , where α = 14.4 N/m2.
(a) How much work does F do when the proton moves along the straight-line path from the point (0.10 m, 0) to the point (0.10 m, 0.5 m)?
(b) Along the straight-line path from the point (0.09 m, 0) to...
A 23.5-kg rock is sliding on a rough, horizontal surface at 9.15 m/s and eventually stops due to friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the rock and the surface is 0.180. What average power is produced by friction as the rock stops?
I think that the way to solve it is use...
Hello all I have a question I was hoping someone could answer for my homework.
A 78.0-kg boulder is rolling horizontally at the top of a vertical cliff that is h1 = 16 m above the surface of a lake, as shown in the figure below. The top of the vertical face of a dam is located d = 110 m from...
