A rope is attached to a block. The rope pulls on the block with a force of 240 N, at an angle of 40 degrees to the horizontal (t

his force is equal to the tension in the rope). What is the x-component of the force on the block due to the rope?

Answer:

X Component is 183.85N

Explanation:

The x component of the force on the block due to the rope;

X = F cos @ where if is the force, @ is the angle mad with the block.

X = F cos @

X = 240 cos 40

Cos 40= 0.7660, so

X = 240 × 0.7660

X component= 183.85N// rounded to two decimal places.

Answer:

The x-component of the force on the block due to the rope is 183.8 newtons

Explanation:

See the picture attached.

Because the force F on the block due the rope is applied at an angle of 40 degrees respect the horizontal, it has a component on x (Fx) and a component on y (Fy) we should find the x component. We should use trigonometric relations for right tringle. We need the equation that relates hypotenuse (F) and adjacent side (Fx), this relation is:

cos 40 =\frac{F_x}{F}

solving for Fx:

F_x = F*cos 40 = 240*cos(40)

F_x = 183.8 N

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Amplitude, A = 0.049 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a function of time according to the equation :

y = 0.049 \cos(7t) .......(1)

The general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\cos(\omega t) .......(2)

A is amplitude of wave

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :

A = 0.049 meters

So, the amplitude of the wave is 0.049 meters.

Stacy measures two quantities: the mass of each washer and the force that the washers exert on the force meter. In general, how
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

When she adds more washers to the meter, the magnitude of force that is shown on the force meter increases.

Explanation:

The force that the washers exert on the force meter is actually the weight of the washers. Weight is actually a force with gravitation acceleration.

                       F = W = mg

Where g is gravitational acceleration and its value is 9.81 m/s² and m is the mass of any object. As she adds more washers to the meter so the total mass of the washers increases. As the mass of the washers increases, magnitude of the force (Weight) shown on the force meter increases.

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards
