A uniform 41.0 kg scaffold of length 6.6 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below. A 74.0 kg painter stands 1.0 m from the left end of the scaffold, and his painting equipment is 1.4 m from the right end. If the tension in the left cable is twice that in the right cable, find the tensions in the cables (in N) and the mass of the equipment (in kg). (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations—including answers submitted in WebAssign.)

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

[tex]m_p[/tex] = mass of the painter

[tex]m_s[/tex] = mass of the scaffold

[tex]m_e[/tex] = mass of the equipment

[tex]T[/tex] = tension in the cables

In order for this scaffold to remain in equilibrium, the net force and torque on it must be zero. The net force acting on the scaffold can be written as

[tex]3T = (m_p + m_s + m_e)g\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)[/tex]

Set this aside and let's look at the net torque on the scaffold. Assume the counterclockwise direction to be the positive direction for the rotation. The pivot point is chosen so that one of the unknown quantities is eliminated. Let's choose our pivot point to be the location of [tex]m_e[/tex]. The net torque on the scaffold is then

[tex]T(1.4\:\text{m}) + m_sg(1.9\:\text{m}) + m_pg(4.2\:\text{m}) - 2T(5.2\:\text{m}) = 0[/tex]

Solving for T,

[tex]9T = m_sg(1.9\:\text{m}) + m_pg(4.2\:\text{m})[/tex]

or

[tex]T = \frac{1}{9}[m_sg(1.9\:\text{m}) + m_pg(4.2\:\text{m})][/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:= 423.3\:\text{N}[/tex]

To solve for the the mass of the equipment [tex]m_e[/tex], use the value for T into Eqn(1):

[tex]m_e = \dfrac{3T - (m_p + m_s)g}{g} = 14.6\:\text{kg}[/tex]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (3, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in any problem solving is to look at the problem. Here, we see that the first equation can be reduced to standard form by dividing it by 2. This would give both terms a coefficient of 1.

We see that the second equation already has a variable with a coefficient of 1.

When solving a system by substitution, it can save some effort if you start by finding a variable with a coefficient of 1 or -1. Since we see that in the second equation, we choose to solve the second equation for y:

  y = 4x . . . . . . . add 4x to both sides of the second equation

Now, we have an expression for y that we can substitute into the first equation.

  2x +2(4x) = 30 . . . . substitute for y

  10x = 30 . . . . . . . . simplify

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . divde by 10

  y = 4(3) = 12 . . . . . find y using y=4x

The solution is (x, y) = (3, 12).

__

Additional comment

I doesn't matter what variable gets substituted. The purpose of the exercise is to reduce the number of variables in the equation. Here, we start with an equation that has 2 variables. Substituting for one of them gives an equation with only one variable, a lot easier to solve.

You don't have to find an expression for the "bare" variable. We could solve the second equation for 2x, for example: 2x = y/2, then substitute for 2x in the first equation: y/2 +2y = 30   ⇒   y = (2/5)(30) = 12. Or, we could solve the first equation for 2x and substitute into the second: 2x=30-2y, y-2(2x) = 0 ⇒ y-2(30-2y) = 0 ⇒ y = 60/5 = 12.

The substitution property of equality says you can make any substitution of equal values anywhere. "butter = margarine" means you can substitute butter for margarine, or vice versa, wherever you may wish.

How much wrapping is needed to cover a cubed gift box that is 9 inches high? (Include the bow which takes 115 sq. inches.)

Answers

Answer:

601 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the amount of wrapping needed to cover the cube shaped gift box, including the bow

Area of bow = 115 in²

Surface area of cube shaped box = 6a²

a = side length of cube = 9

Hence,

Surface area of gift box = 6 * 9²

Surface area = 6 * 81 = 486 in²

Total wrapping required = area of gift box + area of bow = (486 in² + 115 in²) = 601 in²

Speed of canoe in still water we will denote it CS and water itself has a speed we denote it WS. Downstream will be (CS + WS)*45 = 2, Upstream will be (CS - WS)*90 = 2. Solve the system you will find canoe speed in still water and the water speed as well. 90CS = 90WS +2, CS = WS+ 1/45 put it in the first function 90WS +1 = 2, WS = 1/90 miles per minute, CS =1/30 miles per minute.

Answer:

 (36°, 67°, 77°)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement lets us write the equations ...

  x + y + z = 180 . . . . sum of angles in a triangle

  y + z = 4x . . . . . 2nd and 3rd total 4 times the first

  z = y +10 . . . . . . 3rd is 10 more than 2nd

__

Substituting for z in the second equation, we have ...

  y +(y +10) = 4x

  y +5 = 2x . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = 2x -5 . . . . . . rearranged

  z = 2x +5 . . . . . . substitute for y in the last equation

Now, we can write the first equation entirely in terms of x:

  x +(2x -5) +(2x +5) = 180

  5x = 180

  x = 36

  y = 2(36) -5 = 67

  z = 67 +10 = 77

The three angles are (x, y, z) = (36°, 67°, 77°).

Answer:

g(x)

because it is a quadratic equation it is mirrored the other one isn’t even a function

The true statement is The functions f and g have the same axis of symmetry, and the maximum value of f is greater than the maximum value of g.

What is Function?

A function is a relation from a set A to a set B where the elements in set A only maps to one and only one image in set B. No elements in set A has more than one image in set B.

The function g has the axis of symmetry as x = 2, since the values of the function below and above x = 2 changes in the same way.

The function f is a parabola.

The axis of symmetry is also x = 2, since the graph is the same before and after the line x = 2.

So the both the functions have same axis of symmetry.

Maximum value of the function f = 4 at x = 2. Since no other values of f is greater than 4.

At x = 2, the value of g = 3

Maximum value of g = 3

So, maximum value of f is greater than the maximum value of g.

Hence the correct option is B.

Answers

Answer:

C- 35 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angle adjacent to 90° angle = 90° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Interior angle adjacent to 125° angle = 55° (supplementary angles of a line segment).

Sum of two interior angles of the triangle = 55+90 = 145°

∠p = 180° - 145° = 35°

C. 35° if you take the adjacent angle of 125° and subtract this from 180° you are left with 55°. Add this to the other 90° and you get 145°. You can then take 180°-145° to get 35°.
