Explanation:

It is given that,

Force, F=(-8\ N)i+(6\ N)j

Position vector, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The torque on the particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r\\\\\tau=(-8i+6j)\times (3i+4j)\\\\\tau=(-50k)\ N-m

(b) To find the angle between r and F use dot product formula as :

F{\cdot} r=|F||r|\ \cos\theta\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{F{\cdot} r}{|F| |r|}\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{(-8i+6j){\cdot} (3i+4j)}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{-24+24}{\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2} \times \sqrt{3^2+4^2} }\\\\\cos\theta=0\\\\\theta=90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

\overrightarrow{F}=-8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{r}=3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}

(a) the formula for the torque is given by

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\overrightarrow{r} \times \overrightarrow{F}

\overrightarrow{\tau }=\left (3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}  \right )\times \left (-8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j}  \right )

\overrightarrow{\tau }=50\widehat{k}

(b) Let the angle between r and F is θ.

Using the formula

Cos\theta =\frac{\overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{r}}{\mid \overrightarrow{r}\mid .\mid \overrightarrow{F}\mid }

\mid \overrightarrow{r}\mid = \sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}}=5

\mid \overrightarrow{F}\mid = \sqrt{8^{2}+6^{2}}=10

\overrightarrow{F}.\overrightarrow{r} = \left ( -8\widehat{i}+6\widehat{j} \right ).\left ( 3\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j} \right )=-24+24=0

So, Cos θ = 0

θ = 90°

Thus, the angle between f and r is 90°.

The diagram shows a ball resting at the top of a hill.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

Explanation:

Let be X the point where a ball rests at the top of a hill. By applying the Principle of Energy Conservation, the total energy in the physical system remains constant and gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill is equal to the sum of kinetic energy, a lower gravitational energy and dissipated work due to nonconservative forces (friction, dragging).

U_{grav, X} = U_{grav, Y} + K_{Y} + \Delta W_{X \rightarrow Y} = U_{grav,Z}+\Delta W_{X \rightarrow Z}

Conclusions are showed as follows:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

b) The kinetic energy is the lowest at X and Z.

c) Total energy remains constant as the ball moves from X to Y.

Hence, the correct answer is A.

Big Al stands on a skateboard at a rest and throws a 0.5-kilogram rock at a velocity of 10.0 m /sec. Big Al moves back at 0.05 m
Vlada [557]
Let
his and skateboard's combined mass is x
we know
F1=-F2
0.5kg*10m/s=-0.05m/s xkg
5=0.05x(minus cancel with the m/s as it represented the opposite direction of velocity and now there is no velocity in this equation.. so minus is avoidable. and the kgs cancel out)
x=10
so their combined mass is a 100 kg.. (I hope I didn't mess thing up for you)

SOUND IS A FORM OF WAVE.LIST AT LEAST 3 REASONS TO SUPPORT IDEA THAT SOUND IS A WAVE.
algol [13]
1 The question asks for a certain quantity of examples in a list (Name 6 factors that contributed to the start of World War I, What 3 subatomic particles constitute an atom? etc).
2 The question is academically precise and, therefore, indecisive in the wording (What are the 2 kinds of loading most professional engineers and academics in the field of engineering today generally consider to be relevant in most cases when considering typical types of structure usually made of common materials using well-understand methods?)
3 The question challenges the answerer to defend a position as opposed to merely rattling off a list based on knowledge alone, thereby invoking higher levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. (What are 4 arguments that could be used to defend arguments made by the physicists of the day that electromagnetic waves must move through an illusive substance called 'the ether?)
