Two forces, F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec and F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec, act at a point. F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec has a magnitude of 9.20 NN and is directed at an a

Answer:

The x component of the resultant force is -7.27N.

Explanation:

To obtain the x component of the resultant force, first we have to know the x components of the other forces. To do this, we just have to do some trigonometry:

$|F_{1x}|=|F_1|\cos\theta_1=9.20N\cos62.0\°=4.31N \\|F_{2x}|=|F_2|\cos\theta_2=5.00N\cos53.6\°=2.96N$

Since both vectors are in the left side of the y-axis, they have a negative x component. So:

$F_{1x}=-4.31N;\\F_{2x}=-2.96N$

Finally, we sum both components to obtain the component of the resultant force:

$F_{Rx}=-4.31N-2.96N=-7.27N$

In words, the x component of the resultant force is -7.27N.

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 60.0 W/m² is incident on three polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and cente

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers is $I_3 =41.31 W/m^2$

Explanation:

According to Malu's law the intensity of a polarized light having an initial intensity $I_0$ is mathematically represented as

$I = I_0cos^2 \theta$

Now considering the polarizer(The polarizing disk) the equation above becomes

$I = I_0 (cos^2 \theta)^n$

Where n is the number of polarizers

Substituting $60.0W/m^2$ for the initial intensity 3 for the n and 20° for the angle of rotation

$I_3 = 60 (cos^220)^3$

$=41.31 W/m^2$

A moving van travels 10km North, then 4 km east, drops off some furniture and then drives 8 km south. (a) Sketch the path of the

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

4.47 km

Explanation:

If we draw the path of the van then we get a shape with two exposed points A and D. If we draw a line from point D perpendicular to BA we get point E. This gives us a right angled triangle ADE.

From Pythagoras theorem

AD² = AE² + ED²

$AD=\sqrt{AE^2+ED^2}\\\Rightarrow AD=\sqrt{2^2+4^2}\\\Rightarrow AD=\sqrt{20}\\\Rightarrow AD=4.47\ km$
