Calculate the tension force in the cord
How long will it take the block to get to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table.
What will the velocity be as soon as it gets to the edge?

1) Please find attached, created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord is 0.147 N

4) The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is approximately 18.07 s

5) The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is 0.042 m/s

Explanation:

1) Please find attached, the required free body diagram, showing the tension, weight and frictional (zero friction) forces acting on the cart and the mass created with Microsoft Visio

2) The acceleration of the masses connected by the light string is given as follows;

F = Mass, m × Acceleration, a

The mass of the truck, M = 20.0 kg

The mass attached to the string, hanging rom the pulley, m = 0.0150 kg

The force, F acting on the system = The pulling force on the cart = The tension on the cable = The weight of the hanging mass = 0.0150 × 9.8 = 0.147 N

The pulling force acting on the cart, F = M × a

∴ F = 0.147 N = 20.0 kg × a

a = 0.147 N/(20.0 kg) = 0.00735 m/s²

The acceleration of the truck = a = 0.00735 m/s²

3) The tension in the cord = F = 0.147 N

4) The time, t, it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

s = The distance to the edge of the table = 1.2 m

u = The initial velocity = 0 m/s (The cart is assumed to be initially at rest)

a = The acceleration of the cart = 0.00735 m/s²

t = The time taken

Substituting the known values, gives;

s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

1.2 = 0 × t + 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

1.2 = 1/2 ×0.00735 × t²

t² = 1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735) ≈ 326.5306

t = √(1.2/(1/2 ×0.00735)) ≈ 18.07

The time it would take the block to go 1.2 m to the edge of the table = t ≈ 18.07 s

5) The velocity, v, of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table is given by the kinematic equation, v² = u² + 2·a·s as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

u = 0 m/s

v² = 0² + 2 × 0.00735 × 1.2 = 0.001764

v = √(0.001764) = 0.042

The velocity of the cart as soon as it gets to the edge of the table = v = 0.042 m/s.

the answer is d. 4

also the more points you give the faster your questions get answered

-first use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago in north america by american paleo-indians

-the first industrial use of geothermal energy began near pisa, italy in late 18th century

-in 1904, italian scientist piero ginori conti invented the first geothermal electric power plant in which steam was used to generate the power

-with the above experiment, the first geothermal plant in usa started in 1922 with a capacity of 250 kilowatts

-however, in 1946 first ground-source geothermal heat pump installed at commonwealth building in portland, oregon

-during the 1960’s, pacific gas and electric began operation of first large scale geothermal power plant in san francisco, producing 11 megawatts

-in 1973, when oil crisis began many countries began looking for renewable energy sources and by 1980’s geothermal heat pumps (ghp) started gaining popularity in order to reduce heating and cooling costs

-as effect of climate change started showing results, governments of various countries joined hands to fight against it, for which kyoto protocol was signed in japan in 1997, laid out emission targets for rich countries and required that they transfer funds and technology to developing countries, 184 countries have ratified it
