A 331 N stoplight is hanging in equilibrium from cables as shown. The tension in the right cable is 550 N, and it makes an angle

of 12 degrees with the horizontal.
What is the force of tension exerted by the cable on the left side?

<u>The correct answer is 580.

</u>The upward force the right tension cord exerts on the traffic light is equal to about 114.35 N. Because the stoplight is being help upright the natural force (upward force) provided by both tension cords must be equal to the gravitational (downward) force of the traffic light which is 331.
If 114 is the upward force on the right side then 216 N must be the force provided by the left side.
You then have a right triangle with the length opposite theta = about 216 and theta = 22. So sin(22)* X = 216, where X is the length of the hypotenuse, or the force found in the left cord.
with sig figs added to the mix the answer is 580 N

I believe the answer is true to the E dgenuity physics course

An student writes a bird that is divining for prey has speed of _ 10m/s what is wrong with the statement.
Anika [276]

Answer:

The description including its issue is summarized throughout the clarification portion below.

Explanation:

  • Speed would be a measurement of size. Which has only significance and therefore no path or guidance. Student says acceleration of -10m/s, therefore this assumption is incorrect because this same negative correlation indicates the path.
  • In reality, this same participant defined the speed (which seems to have two very different motion of an object).

The average density of living matter on earthâs land areas is 0.10 g/cm2 . what mass of living matter in kilograms would occupy
Margaret [11]
<span>Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume or area. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of a certain substance per unit volume or unit area. From the problem statement, we are given the density of the living matter in a particular area and the area. To calculate mass, we simply multiply the area to the density. However, we should remember that the units should be homogeneous or the same and if not, we convert.

Mass = density x area
Mass = 0.10 g / cm^2 (0.125 ha) ( 1x10^8 cm^2 / 1 ha )
Mass = 1250000 g or 1250 kg</span>

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The velocity of an object refers to the rate at which the object's position changes. For any given motion, it is possible that an object could move very fast yet have an abnormally small

Formula:

velocity = distance travelled in a straight line/ time taken
