- Hooke’s Law In Exercises 65-68, use Hooke’s Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length varies directly as the applied force on the spring. A force of 265 newtons stretches a spring 0.15 meter. (a) What force stretches the spring 0.1 meter? (b) How far does a force of 90 newtons stretch the spring?arrow_forwardHooke’s Law In Exercises 65-68, use Hooke’s Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length varies directly as the applied force on the spring. A force of 220 newtons stretches a spring 0.12 meter. What force stretches the spring 0.16 meter?arrow_forwardHooke’s Law In Exercises 65-68, use Hooke’s Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length varies directly as the applied force on the spring. The coiled spring of a toy supports the weight of a child. The weight of a 25-pound child compresses the spring a distance of 1.9 inches. The toy does not work properly when a weight compresses the spring more than 3 inches. What is the maximum weight for which the toy works properly?arrow_forward
- The end of the boom in the figure shown is subjected to three concurrent and coplanar forces. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. The slope triangle for F2 is 3 for vertical and 4 for horizontal.arrow_forwardA sealed barrel of oil (weighing 48 pounds per cubic foot) is floating in seawater (weighing 64 pounds per cubic foot), as shown. (The barrel is not completely full of oil. With the barrel lying on its side, the top 0.2 foot of the barrel is empty.) Compare the fluid forces against one end of the barrel from the inside and from the outside. (Assume the radius of the barrel is 1 foot and, with the barrel lying on its side, the top 0.6 foot of the barrel is above the water.)arrow_forwardDetermine the work done by the constant force. The locomotive of a freight train pulls its cars with a constant force of 7 tons for a distance of one-quarter mile.arrow_forward
- onsider the tetrahedron (a 4-sided pyramid whose faces are all triangles) with vertices atA = (1, 0, 0), B = (0, 2, 0), C = (0, 1, 3), and D = (2, 2, 0). Calculate the surface area and the volumeof the tetrahedron.(Hint: You may use the fact that the volume a tetrahedron is exactly one-sixth ofthe volume of the parallelepiped generated by the same vectors.) Surface Area = Volume =arrow_forwardWork One of the events in a strength competition isto pull a cement block 100 feet. One competitor pullsthe block by exerting a constant force of 250 poundson a rope attached to the block at an angle of 30° withthe horizontal (see figure). Determine the work done inpulling the block.arrow_forwardCable AC is 70 ft long, and the tension in that cable is 5250 lb. Determine (a) the x, y, and z components of the force exerted by the cable on the anchor C, (b) the angles θx, θy, and θz defining the direction of that force.arrow_forward
- Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 42 pounds per cubic foot. A cylindrical gasoline tank 3 feet in diameter and 4 feet long is carried on the back of a truck and is used to fuel tractors. The axis of the tank is horizontal. The opening on the tractor tank is 5 feet above the top of the tank in the truck. Find the work done in pumping the entire contents of the fuel tank into the tractorarrow_forwardHow to interpret/describe the measure of shape (skewness and kurtosis)? A. Give a template or format B. Example Note: it should be the advanced way. Not just basic structure, i.e., interpreting in in-depth manner.
