Answer:

43.58 m

Explanation:

If you travel 500 m on a straight road that slopes upward at a constant angle of 5 degrees

Using trigonometry ratio

Sin 5 = opposite/hypothenus

Where the hypothenus = 500m

Opposite = height h

Sin 5 = h/500

Cross multiply

500 × sin 5 = h

h = 500 × 0.08715

h = 43.58m

Therefore, the height above the starting point is equal to 43.58m

List an example of each of the four classes polymers that living things make and use
slamgirl [31]


The four classes of polymers are:

1. Nucleic acids.  Examples are DNA and RNA

2. Protein. Examples are enzymes and hemoglobin

3. Carbohydrates. Examples as starch and glycogen

4. Lipids. Examples are triglycerides and phospholipids

The building blocks of nucleic acids are called bases and there are four types known as Guanine, Adenine, Thymine and Cytosine.

The building blocks of carbohydrates are glucose molecules.

The building blocks of protein are amino acids.

The building blocks of lipids are a combination of fatty acids and glycerol.

Varg sees a spring that has a spring constant of 4 N/m that is stretched 5 m. He stretches the spring an additional 5 m. Conside
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Elastic potential energy, E = 200 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant, K = 4 N/m

initial stretching in the spring, x = 5 m

Finally, it is stretched an additional 5 m i.e. x' = 5 m        

Let E is the elastic energy in the spring after Varg stretches the spring. it is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}k(x+x')^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (10)^2

E = 200 J

So, the elastic energy in the spring after Varg stretches the spring is 200 J. hence, this is the required solution.

2. A solenoid. Suppose the south end of a bar magnet was introduced to the right end of this solenoid at a constant velocity. Wh
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

2) deflection must be towards the negative side of the voltage.

4) the correct statements are: b and c

Explanation:

2) This question is based on Faraday's law of induction, when we introduce a magnet in a solenoid an induced current is produced that generates a voltage that is given by

           E = - N d \phi_{B} / dt

where \phi_{B} = B. A

The bold are vectors

Therefore, when applying this formula to our case, the induction lines of the magnetic field increase as we approach the solenoid, as the South pole approaches the lines are in the direction of the magnet, therefore the normal to the solenoid that has an outgoing direction and the magnetic field has 180º between them and the cos 180 = -1; consequently the deflection must be towards the negative side of the voltage.

4) From the Faraday equation we can see that the inductive electromotive force depends

* The magnitude of B that changes over time

* The area of ​​the loop that changes over time

* The angle between B and the area that changes over time

* A combination of the above

With this analysis we will review the different alternatives given

a) False. It takes a temporary change and an absolute value of B

b) True. As the speed decreases, the change in B decreases, that is, dB / dt decreases

c) True. The current is induced in each turn, if there is a smaller number the total current will be smaller

d) False. A temporary change of area is needed, in addition to increasing the area the current increases

We can see that the correct statements are: b and c

A large refrigerator (mass 80kg) sits at rest inside a house. The homeowner wants to move the refrigerator across the room, so s
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

By the law of friction,

F=\mu R

F is the maximum frictional force, \mu is the coefficient of friction and R is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.

R=mg

F=\mu mg

While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So, \mu=0.65

F=0.65 \times80\times9.8=509.6 \text{ N}

This is the maximum frictional force and is more than the applied horizontal force of 400 N. Frictional force cannot be more than the applied force, else it would actually pull the refrigerator backwards (a strange thing, if it were to happen). It is equal to the extent of the applied force because the applied force is not enough to overcome the maximum.

Hence the frictional force is 400 N.

PS: Note that we do not use the coefficient of kinetic friction because applied force could not overcome the static friction.
