A 1.55-kg object hangs in equilibrium at the end of a rope (taken as massless) while a wind pushes the object with a 13.3-n hori

zontal force. find the magnitude of the tension in the rope, and the rope\'s angle from the vertical. the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2.

<span>To answer this problem, we use balancing of forces: x and y components to determine the tension of the rope.


First, the vertical component of tension (Tsin theta) is equal to the weight of the object. 
 T * sin θ = mg =</span> 1.55 * 9.81 <span>
 T * sin θ = 15.2055

Second, the horizontal component of tension (t cos theta) is equal to the force of the wind. 
 T * cos θ =  13.3 

Tan θ = sin  </span>θ / cos θ = 15.2055/13.3 = 1.143
we can find θ that is equal to 48.82. 

T then is equal to 20.20 N

What is the half-life of this radioactive isotope that decreases to one-fourth its original amount in 18 months?
o-na [289]
The half-life of this radioactive isotope is 9 months for it decreases to one-fourth its original amount in 18 months. Half-life means a certain length of time after which half of the amount of radioactive element has decayed.
Therefore, the half-life of this particular isotope is 18 months. After 18 months the isotope was at one-half, then another 18 months, the isotope was at one-fourth, which is 9 months where one-fourth is one-half of one half.

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of
schepotkina [342]
If speed = distance/time , then time = speed/distance.

So...

Speed of light = 3*10^8(m/s)
Average distance from Earth to Sun = 149.6*10^9(m)

Therefore, t=(3*10^8(m/s))/(149.6*10^9(m))

I hope this was a helpful explanation, please reply if you have further questions about the problem.

Good luck!
