Answer:

The wire meet the ground at an angle of 56.4 degrees

Explanation:

It is given that,

To support a tree damaged in a storm, a 12-foot wire is secured from the ground to the tree at a point 10 feet off the ground.

The hypotenuse is, H = 12 foot

The perpendicular distance is, P = 10 feet

The angle between the tree and the ground is 90 degrees

Using Pythagoras theorem as :

sin\theta=\dfrac{P}{H}

sin\theta=\dfrac{10}{12}

\theta=56.4^{\circ}

So, the wire meet the ground at an angle of 56.4 degrees. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Cylinder A is moving downward with a velocity of 3 m/s when the brake is suddenly applied to the drum. Knowing that the cylinder
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Incomplete question

Check attachment for the given diagram

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial Velocity of drum

u=3m/s

Distance travelled before coming to rest is 6m

Since it comes to rest, then, the final velocity is 0m/s

v=3m/s

Using equation of motion to calculate the linear acceleration or tangential acceleration

v²=u²+2as

0²=3²+2×a×6

0=9+12a

12a=-9

Then, a=-9/12

a=-0.75m/s²

The negative sign shows that the cylinder is decelerating.

Then, a=0.75m/s²

So, using the relationship between linear acceleration and angular acceleration.

a=αr

Where

a is linear acceleration

α is angular acceleration

And r is radius

α=a/r

From the diagram r=250mm=0.25m

Then,

α=0.75/0.25

α =3rad/sec²

The angular acceleration is =3rad/s²

b. Time take to come to rest

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

0=3-0.75t

0.75t=3

Then, t=3/0.75

t=4 secs

The time take to come to rest is 4s

Which description best matches the image below of a hand that is using the right-hand palm rule?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

When reviewing the results, the correct one is C

Explanation:

The right hand rule is widely useful in knowing the direction of force in a maganto field,

The ruler sets the thumb in the direction of the positive particle, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, and the palm in the direction of the force.

Let's apply this to our exercise.

The thumb that is the speed goes in the negative direction of the axis,

The two extended that the magnetic field look negative x,

The span points entered the dear sheet the negative the Z axis

When reviewing the results, the correct one is C

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can
gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.

Suppose that a rectangular toroid has 2,000 windings and a self-inductance of 0.060 H. If the height of the rectangular toroid i
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

0.01154 A

Explanation:

We have given the energy in the magnetic field U=4\times 10^{-6}J

Value of inductance L =0.060 H

Energy stored in magnetic field is given by U=\frac{1}{2}Li^2

i=\sqrt{\frac{2U}{L}}

i=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{0.06}}=0.01154\ A

So the current flowing through rectangular toroid will be 0.01154 A
