The sketch of the system is: two strings, 1 and 2, are attached to the ceiling and to a third string, 3.The third string holds the bag of cement. 

The free body diagram of the weight with the string 3, drives to the tension T3 = weihgt => T3 = 325 N

The other free body diagram is around the joint of the three strings.

In this case, you can do the horizontal forces equilibrium equation as:

T1* cos(60) - T2*cos(40) = 0

And the vertical forces equilibrium equation:

Ti sin(60) + T2 sin(40) = T3 = 325 N

Then you have two equations with two unknown variables, T1 and T2

0.5 T1 - 0.766 T2 = 0

 0.866 T1 + 0.643T2 = 325

When you solve it you get, T1 = 252.8 N and T2 = 165 N

Answer: T1 = 252.8 N, T2 = 165N, and T3 = 325N

An object is pulled northward with a force of 10 n and southward with a force of 15 n. the magnitude of the net force on the obj
Anastaziya [24]

The correct option is (b) 5n

As a result, there is a net downward force of 5N operating on the object.

The resultant force is the force that results from adding the vector sums of all the forces operating on an item. The combined action of all the acting forces on the object produces the same effect as the resulting force. When determining the resulting force, the direction of the forces must be taken into account.

Given;

The northward force is Fn = 10N

The southward force is Fs = 15N

Required;

The net force on the mobile phone is Fnet = ?N

The object's weight exerts downward pressure, and upward resistance exerts upward pressure. The vector sum of these two forces will be the net force.

Fnet = Fs - Fn (Considering the direction downward as positive)

Fnet= 15N - 10N

Fnet = 5N

As a result, there is a net downward force of 5 N operating on the object.

An analog signal carries information by copying an original sound
When we speak through the microphone, it turns our sound into some sort of electronic wave.
This electronic wave is caught by a recording device and later could be replicated into Mp3 file that we usually listen to

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.159 kg slides over the ice. The puck initially slides with a speed of 4.75 m/s, but it comes to a
Anton [14]

Answer:

The energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is 1.355 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the hockey puck, m = 0.159 kg

initial speed of the puck, u = 4.75 m/s

final speed of the puck, v = 2.35 m/s

The energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is given by;

ΔE = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

ΔE = ¹/₂ x 0.159 (2.35² - 4.75²)

ΔE = -1.355 J

the lost energy is 1.355 J

Therefore, the energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is 1.355 J
