Answer:

86.6 lbs

Explanation:

Let the force is X.

Resultant force, R = 100 lbs

Other force is Y. Angle between resultant force and force X is 30°.

According to the diagram

Cos30=\frac{X}{R}

0.866=\frac{X}{100}

X = 86.6 lbs

Other force Y

Sin30=\frac{X}{R}

0.5=\frac{Y}{100}

Y = 50 lbs

A 0.500-nm x-ray photon is deected through 134 in a Compton scattering event. At what angle (with respect to the incident beam)
natita [175]

Answer:

The angle of recoil electron with respect to incident beam of photon is 22.90°.

Explanation:

Compton Scattering is the process of scattering of X-rays by a charge particle like electron.

The angle of the recoiling electron with respect to the incident beam is determine by the relation :

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{hf}{m_{e}c^{2}  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}      ....(1)

Here ∅ is angle of recoil electron, θ is the scattered angle, h is Planck's constant, m_{e} is mass of electron, c is speed of light and f is the frequency of the x-ray photon.

We know that, f = c/λ      ......(2)

Here λ is wavelength of x-ray photon.

Rearrange equation (1) with the help of equation (1) in terms of  λ .

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{h}{m_{e}c\lambda  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}

Substitute 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ m² kg s⁻¹ for h, 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for m_{e}, 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c, 0.500 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ  and 134° for θ in the above equation.

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{6.6\times10^{-34} }{9.1\times10^{-31}\times3\times10^{8}\times0.5\times10^{-9}  })\tan\frac{134 }{2}

\cot\phi=2.37

\phi = 22.90°

balu736 [363]

Answer:

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

Explanation:

<u>Displacement Vector</u>

Suppose an object is located at a position  

\displaystyle P_1(x_1,y_1)

and then moves at another position at

\displaystyle P_2(x_2,y_2)

The displacement vector is directed from the first to the second position and can be found as

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

If the position is given as magnitude-angle data ( z , α), we can compute its rectangular components as

\displaystyle x=z\ cos\alpha

\displaystyle y=z\ sin\alpha

The question describes the situation where the initial point is the base of the mountain, where both components are zero

\displaystyle P_1(0,0)

The final point is given as a 520 m distance and a 32-degree angle, so  

\displaystyle x_2=520\ cos32^o= 440.99\ m

\displaystyle y_2=520\ sin32^o=275.6\ m

The displacement is

\displaystyle \vec{d}=
