The curator of a scie iron weighs 1260 N and is too big for her to lift by herself, she is using a hand cart (see figure at right). While passi Fortunately, the iron didn't hit a dolphin, but it quickly sinks to the bottom. Unfortunately, the meted t and be cut when they rub against it. She wants to get it up out of the pool as quickly as possible. Fortunately, the meteorite has lots of holes in it and there are ropes with hooks on one end lying around. If she could get a hook into one of the holes, she might be able to pull it up to the top. Unfortunately, she remembers that the meteorite is too heavy for her to lift. (a) Will the fact that the meteorite is in the pool under water make it feel heavier or lighter to lift (slowly) with the rope? O Heavier O Lighter O The same (b) The meteorite is sitting on the concrete bottom of the pool. Is the force the meteorite exerts on the bottom bigger or smaller than the force it would exert if the pool had no water in it? O Bigger O Smaller O The same c) The pool is 3.7 m deep, the density of the meteorite is about 7800 kg/m , and the density of water is 1000 kg/m". What is the buoyant force on the meteorite while it's fully submerged in the pool? B = 160 VN (d) Before the curator attaches the rope to the meteorite, what is the normal force of the bottom of the pool on the meteorite? n = 1100 (e) After managing to get the hook into one of the meteorite's holes, what is the minimum force the curator would need to apply with the rope to lift the meteorite? minimum force = 1100 (f) Assuming the curator can apply a maximum force of 450 N, will she be able to lift the meteorite? O Yes O No O Cannot be determined (9) The curator applies her maximum force to the m with the rope. What is t zorite as she's pulling the rope? n = 1100 X N (h) Instead of pulling on the rope by hand, the curator attaches rope to a crane for transferring dolphins in and out of the pool. The crane is able to apply the force necessary to lift the meteorite at constant speed. What is the tension in the rope? (Ignore the drag force from the water.) T = 1100 (1) When the meteorite is halfway to the surface, however, the rope breaks. What is the accel torite as it sinks back to the bottom of the pool? (Ignore the drag force from the water.) a = 1100 * m/s/s (j) With a new rope, the curator again uses the crane to lift the meteorite, but now the crane gets stuck when the meteorite is half submerged at the surface of the pool. What is the tension in the rope at this point? T = 1100
