Answer:

195.168 m

Explanation:

To find the magnitude of the vector you can use the Pythagorean Theorem since you have the height and base and the vector is really just the hypotenuse

Pythagorean Theorem:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

Plug values in

$88.4^2+174^2=c^2$

Simplify

$7814.56+30276=c^2$

Add the two values

$38090.56=c^2$

Take the square root of both sides

$195.168\approx195.168$

Josh has a toy car of mass 3 kg tied to a string of length 2 m. He ties the string to a pole and has the toy car drive in a circ

gulaghasi [49]

Part a)

Centripetal acceleration is defined as

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}$

now here we know that

$v = 3m/s$

$R = 2 m$

m = 3 kg

now from above formula we have

$a_c = \frac{3^2}{2}$

$a_c = 4.5 m/s^2$

Part b)

Maximum possible tension in the string is given as

$T = 50 N$

now by force equation we have

$F = ma$

$50 = 3 a$

$a = \frac{50}{3} m/s^2$

now again by above formula

$\frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{50}{3}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{50 \times 2}{3}}$

$v = 5.77 m/s$

. A student claims that if lighting strikes a metal flagpole, the force exerted by the Earth’s magnetic field on the current in

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, current generated from lightning range from

10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A

We know that,

The magnetic force is given as

F = iLB

The magnetic field on the earth surface is

B = 10^-5 T

So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole

L = 15m

Then,

F = iLB

F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5

F = 15 N

Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.

Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.

noname [10]

Your weight would change but not your mass, the moon has less gravity so therefore you are going to be lighter :-)
