The moon has a small amount of gravity. Low tides mean the moon is not pulling on the water. High tides mean that the moon is pulling on the water.

Explanation:

PRIMERO ENCUENTRAS EL PESO DEL PARACAIDISTA

$F_{peso}$ = 65 kg( $9.80 m/s^{2}$ ) = 637 N

CON LA FÓRMULA DE LA ENERGÍA POTENCIAL

U = 637 N(6000 m - 3500 m) = 1592500 J

If the density of a substance is 5g/cm3 and the volume is 10cm3, determine the mass.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(5g/cm³)*(10cm³) = 50g

Explanation:

This is just a conversion formula. Easy to find using dimensional analysis.

(5g/cm³)*(10cm³) = 50g

Question 23

If the gymnast mass were doubled, her height (h) from the top of the board would be as follows,

с Stay the same

Explanation:

The Mass of an object or body does not affect the acceleration due to gravity in any kind of way.
Light weight objects accelerate more slowly than the heavy objects because when the forces other than the gravity also plays a major role.
Mass increases of a body when an object has higher velocity or the speed.
The greater the force of gravity, it would give a direct impact on the object's acceleration; thus considering only a force, the heavier the object is, it would accelerate faster. But an acceleration depends upon the two factors which are force and mass.
Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the two factors which are, the net force of an object and the mass of the object.

Which type of stress causes deformation that leads to earthquakes at converging plate boundaries?

ki77a [65]

The answer is Compressional Stress

In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. ... This is called confining stress. Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.

I hope this helped!! Have a great day :D

The angle between the two force of magnitude 20N and 15N is 60 degrees (20N force being horizontal) determine the resultant in m

BARSIC [14]

A) The resultant force is 30.4 N at $25.3^{\circ}$

B) The resultant force is 18.7 N at $43.9^{\circ}$

Explanation:

In order to find the resultant of the two forces, we must resolve each force along the x- and y- direction, and then add the components along each direction to find the components of the resultant.

The two forces are:

$F_1 = 20 N$ at $0^{\circ}$ above x-axis

$F_2 = 15 N$ at $60^{\circ}$ above y-axis

Resolving each force:

$F_{1x}=F_1 cos \theta = (20)(cos 0)=20 N\\F_{1y}=F_1 sin \theta =(20)(sin 0)=0 N$

$F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 60)=7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 60)=13.0 N$

So, the components of the resultant are:

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20+7.5 = 27.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N$

And the magnitude of the resultant is:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{27.5^2+13.0^2}=30.4 N$

And the direction is:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{27.5})=25.3^{\circ}$

In this case, the 15 N is applied in the opposite direction to the 20 N force. Therefore we need to re-calculate its components, keeping in mind that the angle of the 15 N force this time is

$\theta=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}=120^{\circ}$
