Find the magnitude of this vector: 174 m N 188.4 m HELP FAST

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

$195.168\approx195.168$

A person is lifting a heavy box using a lever. What is the purpose of the lever in this situation?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force

Explanation:

1. "A lever consists of a rigid bar that is able to pivot at one point. This point of rotation is known as the fulcrum. A force is applied at some point away from the fulcrum (typically called the effort)."

By this definition, we know that force is needed to lift an object using a lever.

2. "When the input and output forces are on opposite sides of the fulcrum, the lever changes the direction of the applied force. This occurs only with first-class levers. When both the input and output forces are on the same side of the fulcrum, the direction of the applied force does not change"

For example, on a sew saw, if a force is applied on one end, you on the other side/end would go up, meaning a change in direction.

3. Lastly, we know a lever is typically used to reduce work, in other words, the force needed to move something.

Basically, if we were to put a lever into an equation:

reduced force + change in direction = lever

(the expection) unless load and force are on the same side, there will be no change in direction.

For example, if you and your friend sit on the same side of a sew saw, the sew saw would not go up or down, meaning no change in direction.

So if not stated otherwise you can assume the load and force are on opposite sides. The purpose of a lever in that situation would be to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force.

*While reading my explanation, it may be helpful to look up a diagram containing a lever, with a load, fulcrum, and applied force.

620 J of heat is added to the cylinder of an engine, which causes the gas inside to expand. As a result, the piston of the engin

Maru [420]

Answer:

400 J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is 620 J

Explanation:

The given information are;

The heat added to the cylinder = 620 J

The force applied by the piston of the engine = 8.0 kN = 8,000 N

The distance over which the force moves (the piston) = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m

The work done (by the engine) = Force × Distance = 8,000 N × 0.05 m = 400 J

The internal energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the system

Therefore, given that the internal energy, U, is the sum total of the energy in the system

∴ U = The heat supplied to the system = 620 J

Which gives;

400 J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is 620 J.

leva [86]

Answer:

B ) Ascend using my buddy alternative air source / make an emergency Ascent

Explanation:

From the description it can be seen his buddy is close by of which he can easily use the alternative air source. Also we can see that he is closer to the water surface than his buddy, of which controlled emergency swimming ascent is highly favourable in this condition.
