Answer:

0.69

Explanation:

Sum of the forces on the sled in the y direction:

∑F = ma

Fn - 52 N = 0

Fn = 52 N

Sum of the forces on the sled in the x direction:

∑F = ma

36 N - Fn μ = 0

Fn μ = 36 N

μ = 36 N / Fn

Substitute:

μ = 36 N / 52 N

μ = 0.69

Answer:

cofficient of kinetic friction is 0.6923

Explanation:

Given Data

Coefficient of kinetic friction  μk = f_{k}/N where fk is force of kinetic friction and N is normal reaction;

we have N = 52 N, and fk = 36 N ;

                μk = f_{k}/N

                      = 36/52

                      = 0.6923

    cofficient of kinetic friction is 0.6923.

The vertical force f acts downward at A on the two membered frames. Determine the magnitude of the two components of F directed
galben [10]

Answer:

The magnitude will be "353.5 N". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values is:

F = 500 N

According to the question,

In ΔABC,

⇒ \angle BCA = (90-30)

⇒             =60^{\circ}

then,

⇒ \angle BAC=(180-45-60)

⇒             =75^{\circ}

Now,

The corresponding angle will be:

⇒ \angle FAC=60^{\circ}

⇒ \angle FAB=70+60

⇒             =135^{\circ}

Aspect of F across the AC arm will be:

= F\times cos(60)

On putting the values of F, we get

= 500\times (.5)

= 200 \ Newton

Component F along the AC (in magnitude) will be:

= F\times cos(135)

= 500\times (-.707)

= -353.5 \ N \

A 120 W lightbulb and a 90 W lightbulb each operate at a voltage of 120 V. Part A Which bulb carries more current? Which bulb ca
uysha [10]

Answer:

120 W lightbulb

Explanation:

Let the two lightbulb be A and B respectively.

Given the following data;

Power A = 120W

Power B = 90W

Voltage = 120V

To find the current flowing through each lightbulb;

a. For lightbulb A

Power = current * voltage

120 = current * 120

Current = 120/120

Current = 1 Ampere.

b. For lightbulb B

Current = power/voltage

Current = 90/120

Current = 0.75 Amperes

Therefore, the lightbulb that carries more current is A with 1 Ampere.

Hipparchus could have warned us that the dates associated with each of the natal astrology sun signs would eventually be wrong.
emmasim [6.3K]

Explanation:

Hipparchus had observed and discovered the precession motion of Earth. Due to the precession the axis of the Earth will gradual shift in a cycle of  25772 years. That means the axis will point towards different stars in the celestial sphere and our pole stars will change.

Because of this change in the axis the apparent position of Sun with respect to the background constellation (sun signs) regresses. Because of which the dates associated with the sun signs will be wrong.
