Answer:

Magnitude = 39.64units

Direction = 54.65°

Explanation:

The magnitude of the component vectors is the a single force that replaces all the forces acting in space and this single vector is known as the resultant.

Answer: 39.6 units

Explanation:

F1:

x-component: 40cos35 = 32.7

y-component: 40sin35 = 22.9

F1 = (32.7)i + (22.9)j

F2:

x-component: -65cos0= -65

y-component: -65sin0 = 0

F2 = (-65)i

Now add the forces using their components.

F1 + F2 = (32.7)i + (22.9)j + (-65)i = (-32.3)i + (22.9)j

To find the magnitude of the vector, r, use the Pythagorean theorem.

r = √((-32.3)^2 + (22.9)^2) = 39.6 units

To find the angle, use the inverse tangent function (arctan).

θ = arctan(22.9 / -32.3) = -35°

90 + 35 = 125°

The -35 depicts a triangle in the fourth quadrant of the unit circle. Using vertical angles, you'd see that the angle of the vector is 90-35=55° north of west. Relative to the positive x-axis, this would be a 125° angle.

A bowling ball of mass m=1.7kg is launched from a spring compressed by a distance d=0.31m at an angle of theta=37 measured from
vodomira [7]

Answer:

k = 1 700.7 N/m

v0 = 9.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

Hello!

We can answer this question using conservation of energy.

The potential energy of the spring (PS) will transform to kinetic energy (KE) of the ball, and eventually, when the velocity of the ball is zero, all that energy will be potential gravitational (PG) energy.

When the kinetic energy of the ball is zero, that is, when it has reached its maximum heigh, all the potential energy of the spring will be equal to the potential energy of the gravitational field.

PS = (1/2) k x^2  <em>where x is the compresion or elongation of the spring</em>

PG = mgh

a)

Since energy must be conserved and we are neglecting any energy loss:

PS = PG

Solving for k

k = (2mgh)/(x^2) = ( 2 * 1.7 * 9.81 * 4.9 Nm)/(0.31^2 m^2)

k = 1 700.7 N/m

b)

Since the potential energy of the spring transfors to kinetic energy of the ball we have that:

PS = KE

that is:

(1/2) k x^2 = (1/2) m v0^2

Solving for v0

v0 = x √(k/m) = (0.31 m ) √( 1 700.7 N/m / 1.7kg)

v0 = 9.8 m/s^2

A 25.0 kg bag of peat moss sits in the back of a flatbed truck, driving up a hill. The bag experiences a 225N normal force. The
malfutka [58]

Answer:

a

   \theta  =  23.32^o

b

  \mu_s =  0.27

c

s =  0.948 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the bag is m_b  =  25.0 \  kg

The normal force experienced is F_n  =  225 \ N

The maximum acceleration of the bag is a =  2.40 \  m/s^2

Generally this normal force experience by the bag is mathematically represented as

F_n  =  mg cos \theta

=> 225  =  (25 * 9.8) cos \theta

=> 0.9183  =   cos \theta

=> \theta  = cos^{-1}[0.9183]

=> \theta  =  23.32^o

Generally for the bag not to slip , it means that the frictional force is equal to the sliding force

F_f =  F_s

Hence F_f is mathematically represented as

F_f   =  \mu_s  *  F_n

While F_s is mathematically represented as

F_s   =  m * a

So

\mu_s  *  F_n = m * a

=> \mu_s  *  225 = 25 * 2.40

=> \mu_s =  0.27

Generally from the workdone equation we have that

KE_f - KE_i =  W_f

Here W_f is the work done by friction which is mathematically represented as

W_f  =  m * g * \mu_k * s

Here s is the distance covered by the bag

KE_f is zero given that velocity at rest is zero

and

KE_i = \frac{1}{2}  *  m* v_i^2

so

   \frac{1}{2}  *  m* v_i^2 = m * g * \mu_k * s

=>  \frac{1}{2}  *  v_i^2 =   g * \mu_k * s

substituting  2.55 m/s for v_i and 0.350 for  \mu_k  we have that

     \frac{1}{2}  *  2.55^2 =   9.8 * 0.350 * s

=> s =  0.948 \  m

To measure moderately low pressures, oil with a density of 9.0 x 102 kg/m3 is used in place of mercury in a barometer. A change
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Δ P =  13.24 Pa

Explanation:

Given that

Density of oil ,ρ₁ = 9 x 10² kg/m³

We know that density for mercury ,ρ₂  = 13.6 x 10³ kg/m³

The change in the height of column ,Δh = 1.5 mm

The pressure given as

P = ρ g h

Change in the pressure

Δ P =  ρ₁ g Δh

Now by putting the values

Δ P =  9 x 10² x 9.81 x 1.5 x 10⁻³    Pa

Δ P =  13.24 Pa

Therefor the change in the pressure will be 13.24 Pa.

A metal spoon becomes hot after being left in a pan of boiling water. this is an example of _____. conduction reflection radiati
IRISSAK [1]
Two methods of transfer of heat are involved in this process: conduction and convection.

In fact, the metal spoon is heated by conduction because the molecules of the boiling water collide with the molecules of the spoon, releasing heat to it; and also by convection, because in the pot of boiling water masses of hot water goes upward and they give their heat to the spoon, then these masses become cooler and they go down, replaced by other masses of hot water.
