Two forces of magnitudes 4.0 Newtons and 3.0 Newtons pull on a box. The forces make an angle of 40° with each other. What is the
leonid [27]

Answer:

6.6 N

Explanation:

Let's take the direction of the force of 4.0 N as positive x-direction. This means that the force of 3.0 N is at 40 degrees above it. So the components of the two forces along the x- and y-directions are:

F_{1x} = 4.0 N\\F_{1y} = 0

F_{2x} = 3.0 N cos 40^{\circ}=2.3 N\\F_{2y} = 3.0 N sin 40^{\circ} = 1.9 N

So the resultant has components

F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=4.0 N +2.3 N = 6.3 N\\F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y} = 0 + 1.9 N = 1.9 N

So the magnitude of the resultant is

F=\sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}=\sqrt{(6.3)^2+(1.9)^2}=6.6 N

And in order for the body to be balanced, the third force must be equal and opposite (in direction) to this force: so, the magnitude of the third force must be 6.6 N.

The human ear canal is about 2.3 cm long. If it is regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum, what is the fun
mariarad [96]

Answer:

For the given conditions the fundamental frequency is 3728.26 Hertz

Explanation:

We know that for a pipe open at one end and closed at other end the fundamental frequency is given by

f=\frac{V_{s}}{4L}

where

f is the fundamental frequency

V_{s} is the speed of sound in air in the surrounding conditions.

L = Length of the pipe

Applying values we get and using speed of sound as 343m/s we get

f=\frac{343}{4\times 2.3\times 10^{-2}}=3728.26Hz

1. Why should you use scientific notation when writing big numbers?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.

Explanation:

Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.
