Your neighbor Paul has rented a truck with a loading ramp. The ramp is tilted upward at 35 ∘,and Paul is pulling a large crate u

p the ramp with a rope that angles 10 ∘ above the ramp. Paul pulls with a force of 350 N. (Force is measured innewtons, abbreviated N.)

Answer:

The magnitude of the horizontal component of his force is 345 N.

The magnitude of the vertical component of his force is 60.8 N.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

To find the horizontal and vertical component (Fx and Fy respectively) of Paul´s force (F), we have to use the trigonometry of right triangles.

Notice that Fx and Fy are respectively the adjacent and opposite sides  of the triangle formed by F, Fy and Fx (see figure).

F is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

We can apply the following trigonometric rules to obtain Fx and Fy:

cos angle = adjacent side / hypotenuse

sin angle = opposite side / hypotenuse

In our case:

cos 10° = Fx / F

F · cos 10° =Fx

350 N · cos 10° = Fx

Fx = 345 N

The magnitude of the horizontal component of his force is 345 N.

sin 10° = Fy/F

F · sin 10° = Fy

350 N · sin 10° = Fy

Fy = 60.8 N

The magnitude of the vertical component of his force is 60.8 N.

How do I find frictional force with force applied?
lions [1.4K]

Answer: Choose the normal force acting between the object and the ground. Let's assume a normal force of 250 N.

Determine the friction coefficient.

Multiply these values by each other: 250 N * 0.13 = 32.5 N .

You just found the force of friction!

True or false: Balanced forces can change an object's direction?
slava [35]

The statement is false.  Balanced forces can NOT change the speed OR direction of an object's motion.  (See Newton's #1 law of motion.)

Before being engulfed, matter that is pulled into a black hole should become very hot and emit _____.
miss Akunina [59]
A black hole is a cosmological object that is created when a massive star comes to the end of its life and collapses under its own gravity. Black holes have massive gravitational fields  that even light cannot escape beyond a certain distance. Before being engulfed, matter that is pulled into a black hole should become very hot and emit electromagnetic radiation.

PLEASE HELP FAST The object distance for a convex lens is 15.0 cm, and the image distance is 5.0 cm. The height of the object is
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The image height is 3.0 cm

Explanation:

Given;

object distance, d_o = 15.0 cm

image distance, d_i = 5.0 cm

height of the object, h_o = 9.0 cm

height of the image, h_i = ?

Apply lens equation;

\frac{h_i}{h_o} = -\frac{d_i}{d_o}\\\\ h_i = h_o(-\frac{d_i}{d_o})\\\\h_i = -9(\frac{5}{15} )\\\\h_i = -3 \ cm

Therefore, the image height is 3.0 cm. The negative values for image height indicate that the image is an inverted image.
