Geological evidence based on several radiometric techniques has provided a scientifically well-accepted age for the Earth. Repre

sent that age of the Earth as the 100-yard length of a football field, and any time interval can be represented as some distance on the field. (So something that lasted one-tenth of the age of the Earth would be ten yards, and something that lasted one-half of the age of the Earth would be fifty yards.) On this scale, the time from when dinosaur extinction made space for large mammals, until today, would be represented by how far on the football field?
a. A little over 1 yard.
b. Over 90 yards.
c. 60 yards.
d. Over 80 yards.
e. 50 yards.

A 10N force pulls to the right and friction opposes 2N. If the object is 20kg,find the acceleraton.
zmey [24]

Force = mass * acceleration

10 N - 2 N = 20 kg * acceleration

8 N = 20 kg * acceleration

8 / 20 = acceleration

2/5 m/s^2 = acceleration

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Horizontal component: F_x = 58\ N

Vertical component: F_y = 33.5\ N

Explanation:

To find the horizontal and vertical components of the force, we just need to multiply the magnitude of the force by the cosine and sine of the angle with the horizontal, respectively.

Therefore, for the horizontal component, we have:

F_x = F * cos(angle)

F_x = 67 * cos(30)

F_x = 58\ N

For the vertical component, we have:

F_y = F * sin(angle)

F_y = 67 * sin(30)

F_y = 33.5\ N

So the horizontal component of the tension force is 58 N and the vertical component is 33.5 N.

Astronomers have discovered a new planet called "Xandar" beyond the orbit of Pluto (No, not really but I need a fake planet for
Burka [1]

Answer:

m = 1.82E+23 kg

Explanation:

G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67E-11 N·m²/kg²

r = radius of orbit = 72,600 km = 7.26E+07 m

C = circumference of orbit = 2πr = 4.56E+08 m

P = period of orbit = 12.9 d = 1,114,560 s

v = orbital velocity of satellite Jim = C/P = 409 m/s

m = mass of Xandar = to be determined

v = √(Gm/r)

v² = [√(Gm/r)]²

v² = Gm/r

rv² = Gm

rv²/G = m

m = rv²/G

mG = universal gravitational constant = 6.67E-11 N·m²/kg²

r = radius of orbit = 72,600 km = 7.26E+07 m

C = circumference of orbit = 2πr = 4.56E+08 m

P = period of orbit = 12.9 d = 1,114,560 s

v = orbital velocity of satellite Jim = C/P = 409 m/s

m = mass of Xandar = to be determined

v = √(Gm/r)

v² = [√(Gm/r)]²

v² = Gm/r

rv² = Gm

rv²/G = m

m = rv²/G

m = 1.82E+23 kg

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,
Alex Ar [27]
Ans: 
1.  τbiceps = +(Positive)
2.  τforearm = -(Negative)
3.  τball = -(Negative)

Explanation:

The figure is attached down below.

1. T<span>orque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
</span>Where r is the vector from elbow to the biceps.
<span>
We can see in the figure that F(biceps) is in upward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the counterclockwise direction. The torque in counterclockwise direction is positive(+). Therefore, the sign would be +.

2. </span>Torque about the the weight of the forearm, τforearm:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the forearm.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(forearm) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

3. Torque about the the weight of the ball, τball:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the ball.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(ball) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

A 16-Ω loudspeaker, an 8.0-Ω loudspeaker, and a 4.0-Ω loudspeaker are connected in parallel across the terminals of an amplifier
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

2.286 ohm

Explanation:

R1 = 16 ohm

R2 = 8 ohm

R3 = 4 ohm

They all are connected in parallel combination

Let the equivalent resistance is R.

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/R = 1/16 + 1/8 + 1/4

1/R = (1 + 2 + 4) / 16

1/R = 7 / 16

R = 16/7 = 2.286 ohm
