Triangles. An example would be bridges. Every bridge has compression and tension in the bridge that the triangles disperse throughout the trusses.

Who discovered the basic laws of planetary orbits?.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

kepler

Explanation:

While Copernicus rightly observed that the planets revolve around the Sun, it was Kepler who correctly defined their orbits. At the age of 27, Kepler became the assistant of a wealthy astronomer, Tycho Brahe, who asked him to define the orbital mars

Unpolarized light passes through two ideal Polaroid sheets. The axis of the first is vertical and the axis of the second is at 3
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

63.78%

Explanation:

The equation that relates the angle of the polarization and the intensity of ligth transmitted is I=Io*cos²(x), where I is the intensity of the incident light, Io is the intensity of the transmitted light, and x is the angle of polarization. The fraction of incident light will be I/Io, so the answer in given by cos²(37) = 0.6378

Ted lifts a 10N weight at a height of 1.5 m in 1
masha68 [24]

Answer:

D. Ted expanded more power.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

For Ted.

Force = 10N

Height = 1.5m

Time = 1 seconds

To find Ted's power;

Power = workdone/time

But workdone = force * distance

Workdone = 10 * 1.5

Workdone = 15 Nm

Power = 15/1

Power = 15 Watts.

For Johnny.

Force = 10N

Height = 1.5m

Time = 2 seconds

To find Ted's power;

Power = workdone/time

But workdone = force * distance

Workdone = 10 * 1.5

Workdone = 15 Nm

Power = 15/2

Power = 7.5 Watts

Therefore, from the calculations we can deduce and conclude that Ted expanded more power.

A 20 g ball of clay traveling east at 4.5 m/s collides with a 45 g ball of clay traveling north at 2.0 m/s. You may want to revi
german

Answer:

The ball travels with a speed of 1.96 m/s in a North East direction

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of linear momentum, we have that

m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})v

Since this problem involves motion in both the x and y coordinates, we will solve it in the separate coordinates, and then find the resultant as our answer.

Momentum in the x- direction

in the x direction, v_{2}= 0. this makes m_{2}v_{2}=0

hence we have

20\times4.5=65v_{x}

v_{x}=1.385m/s

Momentum in the y- direction

in the y direction, v_{1}= 0. this makes m_{1}v_{1}=0

hence we have

45\times2.0=65v_{y}

v_{y}=1.385m/s

The resultant of the two vectors can be found using Pythagoras' theorem

v=\sqrt{1.385^{2}+1.385^{2}} =1.959

The direction of the resultant vector is found as

Tan^{-1}(\frac{1.385}{1.385})=45degrees

Hence the ball moves with a velocity of 1.96m/s in a North East direction
