- Running on a treadmill is slightly easier than running outside because there is no drag force to work against. Suppose a 60 kg runner completes a 5.0 km race in 15 minutes. Determine the drag force on the runner during the race. Suppose that the cross-section area of the runner is 0.72 m2. What is this force as a fraction of the runner's weight?arrow_forwardA laborer wants to move crates containing bottles of olive oil from a truck to the ground by sliding them along a ramp. The ramp is 6 m long and is at an angle of 25°. There is friction on the ramp for the first crate. The laborer doesn’t know that there is a small leak in one of the bottles. The leak leaves a layer of oil on the ramp. The oil creates a frictionless surface for the second crate Wayne sends down the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, the speed of the second crate (without friction) is 2.5 the speed of the first crate (with friction). Find the coefficient of kinetic friction. Hint: this is a multistep problem that is be solved using only energy equations. Do not use kinematics . Use conservation of energy and start with the frictionless case.arrow_forward30 ft _6 ft- 5 ft B ft The boy pulls on the rope with a force of 80 lb.arrow_forward

(Figure 1) shows a 1100 kg wind turbine mounted on the end of a 24-m-long, 500 kg tower that connects to a support column at a pivot. A piston connected 3.0 m from the pivot applies the force needed to raise or lower the tower. At the instant shown, the wind turbine is being raised at a very slow, constant speed.What magnitude force is the piston applying?arrow_forward6.

- Charlie assembles a team of 5 persons to steal 350 pcs of 1 kg gold bar, which are stored in a safety deposit box from a vault. In their plan, they need to create a rectangular hole at the vault so that the safety deposit box can fall down to the bottom of canal. Charlie’s team members will drive the boat with a fake safety deposit box covered by cloths to buy some time for the master of Charlie to open up the safety deposit box at the bottom of canal. After successfully open the safety deposit box, the 350 pcs of 1 kg gold bar will be loaded and transported by an underwater vehicle. 1)Figure out the possibility of the actor (Charlie) to open the safety deposit box at the bottom of canal. 2)Suggest any safety box with the only requirement that the safety box able to store all 350 pcs of 1 kg gold bar.

MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER A baby elephant is stuck in a mud hole. To help pull it out, game keepers use a rope to apply a force FA, as part a of the drawing shows. By itself, however, force FA is insufficient. Therefore, two additional forces Fg and Fc are applied, as in part b of the drawing. Each of these additional forces has the same magnitude F. The magnitude of the resultant force acting on the elephant in part b of the drawing isk times larger than that in part a. Find the ratio F when k = 1.60. (Take FA 0 = 25.0°.)
