- The heaviest invertebrate is the giant squid, which is estimated to have a weight of about 0.20 tons spread out over its length of 36 feet. What is its weight in newtons? Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Your response differs significantly from the correct aarrow_forwardKrystal's cat, Charlie, had an unfortunate experience this morning. Charlie climbed the curtain and was afraid to come back down. Krystal heard the meowing and came to help him down. She decided this was a good opportunity to calculate the tension force Charlie exerted on the curtains. She placed him on a scale and used his mass to calculate the tension force on the curtains. If the cat caused 37N of tension on the curtain, what is Charlie's mass?arrow_forwardJason is pulling a box across the room. He is pulling with a force of 21 newtons and his arm is making a 45 angle with the horizontal, what is the vertical component of the force he is pulling with?arrow_forward
- The heaviest invertebrate is the giant squid, which is estimated to have a weight of about 0.36 tons spread out over its length of 37 feet. What is its weight in newtons? Narrow_forwardA mountain climber practices his technique in a mountain climbing school by balancing while suspended by two ropes attached to the ceiling. As shown by the figure, the left rope makes an angle of 60 degrees with the horizontal ceiling and the right rope makes an angle of 30 degrees with the horizontal ceiling. If the right rope has tension T1=322 N, what is the weight of the mountain climber?arrow_forwardA bucket that has a mass of 25 kg when filled with sand need to be lifted to the top of a 10 meter tall building. You have a rope that has a mass of 0.4 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 14 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building. Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.arrow_forward
- Jason is pulling a box across the room. He is pulling with a force of 24 newtons and his arm is making a 69 angle with the horizontal, what is the horizontal component of the force he is pulling with?arrow_forwardJason is pulling a box across the room. He is pulling with a force of 24 newtons and his arm is making a 63 angle with the horizontal, if the box weighs 23 newtons what is the net force on the box in the vertical direction? Treat up as the positive direction, and down as the negative direction. Answer valuearrow_forwardIf the tension in rope 1 is 220 N , what is the tension in rope 2? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.arrow_forward
- Create a slope, with the graph presented. What does the slope represent? How close is your slope to the expected value?arrow_forwardA woman exerts a horizontal force of 145 N on a box with a mass of 37.2 kg If the box doesn't move, what's the magnitude of the static friction force (in N)?arrow_forwardYour friend, who dislikes doing pushups, begins to do a pushup from her knees. You estimate your friend weights about 62.41 kg. Use g=9.8 m/s2. What is the supporting force from EACH of her hands in unit of N?arrow_forward
