Here is the correct answer of the given problem above.
Given that the basket has a mass of 5.5kg, the magnitude of the normal force if the basket is at rest on a ramp inclined above the horizontal is at 12 degrees. The solution is simple: 
<span>Fn at rest = lmgl </span>
<span>= 5.5kg (9.80N/kg) 
=</span><span> mgCos12degrees 
Hope this answer helps. </span>

Answer:

(a) 53.9 N

(b) 52.72 N

(c) 48.85 N

(d) 38.11 N

Explanation:

The normal force is always perpendicular to the surface.

(a) the normal force = m x g = 5.5 x 9.8 = 53.9 N

(b) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 12 = 52.72 N

(c) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 25 = 48.85 N

(d) Normal force = m x g x CosФ = 5.5 x 9.8 x Cos 45 = 38.11 N

A baseball has a mass of 0.45 kg and is thrown with a speed of 25 m/s. what is the momentum of the baseball?
amm1812
The momentum<span> of a particle is defined as the product of its mass times its velocity. It is a vector quantity. Therefore, the momentum of the baseball would be as follows:

Momentum = mass x velocity
Momentum = 0.45 kg (25 m/s)
Momentum = 11.25 kg m/s</span>

What is the linear speed of a point on the equator, due to the earth's rotation?
kvv77 [185]
The equatorial radius of the earth is
r = 6378 km = 6378 x 10³ m

The earth makes 1 revolution in 24 hours.
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(24*3600 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The tangential velocity (linear velocity) at a point on the equator is
v = rω
   = (6378 x 10³ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
   = 463.8 m/s

Answer: 463.8 m/s

An electric motor does 900j of work for 8 hours. Calculate the power used​
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

0.031 W

Explanation:

The power used is equal to the rate of work done:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

P is the power

W is the work done

t is the time taken to do the work W

In this problem, we have:

W = 900 J is the work done by the motor

t = 8 h is the time taken

We have to convert the time into SI units; keeping in mind that

1 hour = 3600 s

We have

t=8\cdot 3600 =28,800 s

And therefore, the power used is

W=\frac{900}{28800}=0.031 W

polet [3.4K]
Here is the answer to the given question above. If Angela has been feeling fatigued and a test is used to check the basal metabolic rate and revealed that she has a low metabolic rate, therefore, the possible diagnosis for Angela would be HYPOTHYROIDISM. <span>The BMR test works by precisely measuring the amount of oxygen that you consume when your body is basal, or completely at rest. Hope this answers your question.</span>
