The car hoist allows the car to be driven onto the platform, after which the rear wheels are raised. if the loading from both rear wheels is 1380 lb, determine the force in the hydraulic cylinder ab. neglect the weight of the platform itself. member bcd is a right-angle bell crank pinned to the ramp at c. the force is positive if in tension, negative if in compression.

Will give brainliest! jay rides his 2.0-kg skateboard. he is moving at speed 5.8 m/s when he pushes off the board and continues to move forward in the air at 5.4 m/s. the board now goes forward at 13 m/s. a. determine jay’s mass. b. determine the change in the internal energy of the system during this process.(express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.)

When considering gravity acceleration and the force of acceleration, what must be true? a. the direction of acceleration must be perpendicular to the direction of the force. b. the direction of the force and the direction of acceleration must be the same as each other. c. the direction of the force and the direction of acceleration must be opposite of each other. d. the mass of the body must be the same as the acceleration of the body.
