Answer:

The answer is 18 N.

Explanation:

A force can be divided into components x and y components. The component along the x-axis is called the horizontal component and along the y-axis is called the vertical component. In this case, as the force is in a horizontal direction and is also known as x-component of force. The x- component of force is  

Fx = Fcosθ

Fx = 22(cos 35°)

Fx = 22 x 0.819

Fx =  18 N

Child's horizontal pull forces are equal to that of frictional resistance force on the wagon.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Torque τ =w ×0 = 0

Explanation:

We know that the torque is given by the product of the force and perpendicular distance between the force and the axis.

Here the gravity force act at the center and the rotational axis is also passing through the center.

Therefore the perpendicular distance between the force and the rotational axis would be zero.

Hence the torque will be

Torque = Force × Perpendicular distance

Torque = mg×0 = 0

Therefore the torque would be zero.

Two very large parallel metal plates, separated by 0.20 m, are connected across a 12-V source of potential. An electron is relea
Semmy [17]

Answer:

{\rm K} = 2.4\times 10^{-19}~J

Explanation:

The electric field inside a parallel plate capacitor is

E = \frac{Q}{2\epsilon_0 A}

where A is the area of one of the plates, and Q is the charge on the capacitor.

The electric force on the electron is

F = qE = \frac{qQ}{2\epsilon_0 A}

where q is the charge of the electron.

By definition the capacitance of the capacitor is given by

C = \epsilon_0\frac{A}{d} = \frac{Q}{V}\\\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0 A} = \frac{V}{d} = \frac{12}{0.20} = 60

Plugging this identity into the force equation above gives

F = \frac{qQ}{2\epsilon_0 A} = \frac{q}{2}(\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0 A}) = \frac{q}{2}60 = 30q

The work done by this force is equal to change in kinetic energy.

W = Fx = (30q)(0.05) = 1.5q = K

The charge of the electron is 1.6 \times 10^{-19}

Therefore, the kinetic energy is 2.4\times 10^{-19}

Some plants disperse their seeds when the fruit splits and contracts, propelling the seeds through the air. The trajectory of th
Anton [14]

Answer:

Option B, 93 cm

Explanation:

An diagram of the seed's motion is attached to this solution.

This is very close to a projectile motion question. And the quantity to be calculated, how far along the grant a seed released would travel is called the Range.

And this would be obtained from the equations of motion,

First of, the height of the plant is related to some quantities of the motion with this relation.

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s, H = height at which motion began, = 20cm = 0.2 m

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t + 0.5g(t^2) = u(x) t (the second part of the equation goes to zero as the vertical component of the acceleration of this motion is 0)

(substituting the t = √(2H/g) derived from above

R = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = maximum initial speed, that is, 4.6 m/s, H = vertical height at which the seed was released = 20 cm = 0.2 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 4.6 √(2×0.2/9.8) = 0.929 m = 0.93 m = 93 cm. Option B.

How much energy does a 50 kg rock have if it is sitting on the edge of a 15 m cliff?
noname [10]

Answer:

7350 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the rock sitting on the edge of the cliff is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the rock

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the cliff

In this problem, we have

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 15 m

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find:

U=(50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(15 m)=7350 J
