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

Maria throws an apple vertically upward from a height of 1.3 m with an initial velocity of +2.8 m/s. Will the apple reach a frie
evablogger [386]

Answer:

No, the apple will reach 4.20041 m below the tree house.

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 2.8 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s² = a (negative as it is going up)

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-2.8^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=0.39959\ m

The height to which the apple above the point of release will reach is 0.39959 m

From the ground the distance will be 1.3+0.39959 = 1.69959 m

Distance from the tree house = 5.9-1.69959 = 4.20041 m

No, the apple will reach 4.20041 m below the tree house.

The values in the option do not reflect the answer.

Natali [406]

Answer:

Vectors have both magnitude and direction

Explanation:

Vectors show how strong the force in because the bigger the arrow, the stronger the force.  Also, it obviously shows direction because its an arrow.

A strip 1.2 mm wide is moving at a speed of 25 cm/s through a uniform magnetic field of 5.6 t. what is the maximum hall voltage
Alex787 [66]
The equation for Hall voltage Vh is:

Vh=v*B*w, where v is the velocity of the strip, B is the magnitude of the magnetic field, and w is the width of the strip. 

v=25 cm/s = 0.25 m/s
B=5.6 T
w= 1.2 mm = 0.0012 m

We input the numbers into the equation and get:

Vh= 0.25*5.6*0.0012 = 0.00168 V

The maximum Hall voltage is Vh= 0.00168 V.

The speed of sound in air changes with the temperature. When the temperature T is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the speed S of sound is
dezoksy [38]

Answer and Explanation:

A. We have temperature t = 32

Speed of sound, s = 1087.5

As t increases by 1⁰f speed increases by 1.2

So that

S = 1088.6

T= 33⁰f

We have 2 equations

1087.5 = k(32) + c

1088.6 = k(33) + c

Subtracting both equations

(33-32)k = 1088.6-1087.5

K = 1.1

b.). S = kT + c

1087.5 = 32(1.1) + c

Such that

C = 1052.3

Therefore

S = 1.1(t) + 1052.3

C.). S = 1.1t + 1052.3

We make t subject of the formula

T = s/1.1 - 1052.3/1.1

T = 0.90(s) - 956.3

D. This means that We have temperature to rise by 0.90 whenever speed is increased
