Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls directly ahead of the donkey with a force of 61.3 N, Jill pull

s with 83.9 N in a direction 45° to the left, and Jane pulls in a direction 45° to the right with 137 N. (Since the donkey is involved with such uncoordinated people, who can blame it for being stubborn?) Find the magnitude of the net force the people exert on the donkey.

Answer:

F_{net} = 220.8 N

Explanation:

It is pulled by three forces as given below

1. Jack pulls directly ahead of the donkey with a force of 61.3 N,

2. Jill pulls with 83.9 N in a direction 45° to the left, and

3. Jane pulls in a direction 45° to the right with 137 N.

Now net force directly in forward direction given as

F_x = 61.3 N + 83.9 cos45 + 137cos45

F_x = 217.5 N

Now similarly in perpendicular to this we have

F_y = 137 sin45 - 83 sin45

F_y = 38.2 N

Now net force is given by them

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}

F_{net} = \sqrt{217.5^2 + 38.2^2}

F_{net} = 220.8 N

Define second class lever​
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Please find detailed explanation of second class levers below

Explanation:

Levers are one of the classes of machine that possesses three levels namely: first class, second class and third claas. A second class lever is the level of levers in which the load (L) is in between the pivot (F) and the effort (E).

Examples of second class levers include; wheelbarrow, a bottle opener etc. In the bottle opener for example, the bottle lid (load) is in between the pivot of the opener and the hand opening it (effort).

A distance of 1.0 meter separates the centers of
professor190 [17]
Neither set of choices is correct.

If the distance is tripled, then the forces decrease to

1/9 Fg. and. 1/9 Fe.

Note. When the objects are charged, the gravitational force Fg can almost always be ignored, since Fe is like 10^40 greater when the quantities of mass and charge are similar.

How is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave related to energy
aivan3 [116]

Answer: The energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is proportional to the frequency of the wave.  

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves that are of higher energy than visible light (higher frequency, shorter wavelength) include ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays.

If a 0.50-kg block initially at rest on a frictionless, horizontal surface is acted upon by a force of 3.7 N for a distance of 6
mel-nik [20]

The block's velocity is determined as 10.03 m/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to work energy theorem, the work done on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object.

So, work done = Kinetic energy

\text {Force } \times \text { displacement }=\frac{1}{2} \times m \times v^{2}

Thus, the velocity can be determined as

\text {velocity}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times \text {Force} \times \text {displacement}}{m}}

\text {velocity}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 3.7 \times 6.8}{0.50}}=\sqrt{\frac{50.32}{0.50}}=\sqrt{100.64}

Velocity = 10.03 m/s.

So the block's velocity is determined as 10.03 m/s.
