snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m upwards        

Explanation:

Torque is the vector cross product of the force and radial distance.

\tau = rF sin \theta

\tau = (1.0\times 10^6 \times 10^3) m \times 250 N\times sin 90^o \\\Rightarrow \tau= 2.5 \times 10^{11} N-m

The direction of the torque would be perpendicular to the direction of the force and radial distance. The direction of the force is counter-clockwise. The direction of the torque would be upwards.

Two wires are used to suspend a sign that weighs 500 N. The two wires make an angle of 100° between each other. If each wire is
vaieri [72.5K]
1) draw a diagram.
2) label diagram. (split the 100 degrees into 50, (which is right down the middle)  to make a right angle triangle.)
3) since its a free body diagram, the forces known must be labelled. (force of gravity). this shows that the straight vertical line of the right angle triangle is Fg (force gravity). label it.
4) use trigonometry. rearrange the equation to solve for what needs to be known.
 
angles known: 50 (split 100 in half to make a right angle triangle), 90 (since its right angle), and 40 (180-90-50 = 40)

sides known: vertical lined up with the 90 degree angle. Fg. --> fg=mg=500N x 9.81m/s^2 = 4905N

use formula: sin or cos 

i used sin. sin(40) = 4905 / ?
- times '?' on both sides. :  sin(40) x '?' = 4905
-divide both sides by sin(40):  '?' = 4905/ sin(40)
--> Solve.

A rabbit is moving in the positive x-direction at 1.10 m/s when it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of 10.9 m/s al
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

aₓ = 0 ,       ay = -6.8125 m / s²

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve with kinematics equations.

Initially the rabbit moves on the x axis with a speed of 1.10 m / s and after seeing the predator acceleration on the y axis, therefore its speed on the x axis remains constant.

x axis

          vₓ = v₀ₓ = 1.10 m / s

          aₓ = 0

y axis

initially it has no speed, so v₀_y = 0 and when I see the predator it accelerates, until it reaches the speed of 10.6 m / s in a time of t = 1.60 s. let's calculate the acceleration

         v_{y}= v_{oy} -ay t

          ay = (v_{oy} -v_{y}) / t

          ay = (0 -10.9) / 1.6

          ay = -6.8125 m / s²

the sign indicates that the acceleration goes in the negative direction of the y axis

In at least 150 words, discuss how Chang's use of personification, metaphor, or connotation express one his themes in "Garden of
Kay [80]
<span>Poet Kuangchi Chang did not remain in China long enough to be "re-educated." Following the Communist takeover he fled to the United States. His poem "Garden of My Childhood" describes China before the revolution as a peaceful, idyllic garden with a violent horde rapidly approaching. A vine, the wind, and the sea are each personified, and each beckons for him to run. It is not until "eons later," when he is "worlds away," that his "running is all done," and he finds himself at his destination: another garden, just like the one he had left behind.</span>

What makes some collisions elastic and others inelastic?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
A perfect elastic collision is defined as one in which there is no loss of kinetic energy in the collision. An inelastic collision is one in which part of the kinetic energy is changed into another form of energy in the collision. Well hope this answers your question :)
