A 225 kg block is pulled by two horizontal forces. The first force is 178 N at a 41.7-degree angle and the second is 259 N at a

108-degree angle. What is the x and y component of the total force acting on the block?

Answer:

52.9 N, 364.7 N

Explanation:

First of all, we need to resolve both forces along the x- and y- direction. We have:

- Force A (178 N)

$A_x = (178 N)(cos 41.7^{\circ})=132.9 N\\A_y = (178 N)(sin 41.7^{\circ})=118.4 N$

- Force B (259 N)

$B_x = (259 N)(cos 108^{\circ})=-80.0 N\\B_y = (259 N)(sin 108^{\circ})=246.3 N$

So the x- and y- component of the total force acting on the block are:

$R_x = A_x + B_x = 132.9 N - 80.0 N =52.9 N\\R_y = A_y + B_y = 118.4 N +246.3 N = 364.7 N$

M Q|C An electric heater is rated at 1.50×10³W, a toaster at 750 W , and an electric grill at 1.00×10³ W . The three appliances

Luba_88 [7]

The circuit breaker will tripped. Details below

<h3>What is power? </h3>

This is defined as the rate in which energy is consumed. Electrical power is expressed mathematically as:

Power (P) = voltage (V) × current (I)

P = IV

<h3>How to determine the total power</h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

Power of heater = 1.50×10³ W
Power of toaster = 750 W
Power of grill = 1×10³W
Total power = ?

Total power = power of heat + power of toaster + power of grill

Total power = 1.50×10³ + 750 + 1×10³

Total power = 3250 W

<h3>How to determine whether or not the circuit breaker will tripped</h3>

To determine if the circuit breaker will tripped or not, we shall determine the current used by the appliances. Detail below:

Total power (P) = 3250 W
Voltage (V)= 120 V
Current (I) =?

P = IV

Divide both side by V

I = P / V

I = 3250 / 120

I = 27.08 A

Since the current used by the three appliances (i.e 27.08 A) is greater than the current the circuit breaker (i.e 25 A), can with stand,thus, the circuit breaker will tripped

What are the similarities and differences between meiosis and mitosis?

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: They both produce new cells, and start both with a single parent cell for similarities. For differences, Meiosis has only 8 stages in total, while mitosis is 4 stages in total. And for the Meiosis, it produces 4 haploid cells, and mitosis, only produces 2 haploid cells. These are the similarities and differences.

Hope this helped!

A bowling ball with a circumference of 27 in. weighs 14.8 lb and has a radius of gyration of 3.43 in. If the ball is released wi

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Distance covered is 37.63 ft

Solution:

As per the question:

Circumference of the bowling ball, C = 27 in

Weight of the bowling ball, w = 14.8 lb

Radius of gyration, k = 3.43 in

Velocity of release of the ball, v' = 23 ft/s = 276 in/s

Coefficient of friction, $\mu = 0.19$

Now,

We know that the circumference of the circle is given by:

C = $2\pi R$

27 = $2\pi R$

$R = \frac{27}{2\pi } = 4.29\ in$

Also, in case of rolling, we know that:

Angular velocity, $\omega = \frac{v}{R}$

$v = \omega R$

Now, applying the conservation of angular momentum along the floor:

Initial angular momentum = Final angular momentum

$m\omega' = m\omega + I\omega$

Moment of Inertia, I = $\frac{2}{5}mR^{2} = mk^{2}$

$mv'R = mvR + mk^{2}\times \frac{v}{R}$

$v'R = vR + k^{2}\times \frac{v}{R}$

$276\times 4.29 = 4.29v + 3.43^{2}\times \frac{276}{4.29}$

$1184.04 - 756.903 = 4.29v$

v = 99.56 in/s

Now,

Friction force, f = $\mu mg$

Also, acceleration of the ball can be computed as:

$\mu mg = - ma$

$a = - \mu g = - 0.19\times 386.09 = - 73.357\ in/s^{2}$

Now, the distance, d covered by the ball before rolling without slipping:

$v^{2} = v'^{2} + 2ad$

$99.56^{2} = 276^{2} + 2\times (- 73.357)d$

$99.56^{2} - 276^{2} = 2\times (- 73.357)d$

d = 451.65 in = 37.53 ft

You tie the loose end of a 0.1 kg yo-yo string to your finger and then release the yo-yo so that it spins down toward the ground

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The answer is " $5.06 \times 10^{-6} \ kg \ m^2$ "

Explanation:

$\to E_1=0..............(i)\\\\\to E_2= \frac{mV^2}{2} +\frac{Iw^2}{2} - mgh.............(ii)\\\\ \Delta E=0\\\\\to mgh= \frac{mV^2}{2} +\frac{Iw^2}{2} \\\\ \to 2 \ mgh= mV^2 +Iw^2\\\\ \to 2 \ mgh- mV^2 =Iw^2\\\\ \to m(2gh- V^2) =Iw^2\\\\ \to I= \frac{m(2gh- V^2)}{w^2}$

$= 5.06 \times 10^{-6} \ kg \ m^2$
