Answer:

d_{2}=0.585m

Explanation:

The torque is the force by the distance so to determinate that both torque are the same magnitude so

T_{1}-T_{2}=0

T_{1}=T_{2}

F_{1}*d_{1}=F_{2}*d_{2}

43N*0.30m=21N*d_{2}

Solve to d2

d_{2}=\frac{41N*0.30m}{21N}

d_{2}=0.585m

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

W ≅ 292.97 J

Explanation:

1)What is the work done by tension before the block goes up the incline? (On the horizontal surface.)

Workdone by the tension before the block goes up the incline on the horizontal surface can be calculated using the expression;

W = (Fcosθ)d

Given that:

Tension of the force = 62 N

angle of incline θ =  34°

distance d =5.7 m.

Then;

W = 62 × cos(34) × 5.7

W = 353.4 cos(34)

W = 353.4 × 0.8290

W = 292.9686 J

W ≅ 292.97 J

Hence,  the work done by tension before the block goes up the incline = 292.97 J

Un the way to the moon, the Apollo astro-
kherson [118]

Answer:

Distance =  345719139.4[m]; acceleration = 3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's universal gravitation law.

In the attached image we can find a schematic of the locations of the Earth and the moon and that the sum of the distances re plus rm will be equal to the distance given as initial data in the problem rt = 3.84 × 108 m

r_{e} = distance earth to the astronaut [m].\\r_{m} = distance moon to the astronaut [m]\\r_{t} = total distance = 3.84*10^8[m]

Now the key to solving this problem is to establish a point of equalisation of both forces, i.e. the point where the Earth pulls the astronaut with the same force as the moon pulls the astronaut.

Mathematically this equals:

F_{e} = F_{m}\\F_{e} =G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a}}{r_{e}^{2}  } \\

F_{m} =G*\frac{m_{m}*m_{a}  }{r_{m} ^{2} } \\where:\\G = gravity constant = 6.67*10^{-11}[\frac{N*m^{2} }{kg^{2} } ] \\m_{e}= earth's mass = 5.98*10^{24}[kg]\\ m_{a}= astronaut mass = 100[kg]\\m_{m}= moon's mass = 7.36*10^{22}[kg]

When we match these equations the masses cancel out as the universal gravitational constant

G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = G*\frac{m_{m} *m_{a} }{r_{m}^{2}  }\\\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2}  }

To solve this equation we have to replace the first equation of related with the distances.

\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2}  } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2} } \\\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(3.84*10^{8}-r_{m}  )^{2}  } = \frac{7.36*10^{22}  }{r_{m}^{2} }\\81.25*r_{m}^{2}=r_{m}^{2}-768*10^{6}* r_{m}+1.47*10^{17}  \\80.25*r_{m}^{2}+768*10^{6}* r_{m}-1.47*10^{17} =0

Now, we have a second-degree equation, the only way to solve it is by using the formula of the quadratic equation.

r_{m1,2}=\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c }  }{2*a}\\  where:\\a=80.25\\b=768*10^{6} \\c = -1.47*10^{17} \\replacing:\\r_{m1,2}=\frac{-768*10^{6}+- \sqrt{(768*10^{6})^{2}-4*80.25*(-1.47*10^{17}) }  }{2*80.25}\\\\r_{m1}= 38280860.6[m] \\r_{m2}=-2.97*10^{17} [m]

We work with positive value

rm = 38280860.6[m] = 38280.86[km]

<u>Second part</u>

<u />

The distance between the Earth and this point is calculated as follows:

re = 3.84 108 - 38280860.6 = 345719139.4[m]

Now the acceleration can be found as follows:

a = G*\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e} ^{2} } \\a = 6.67*10^{11} *\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(345.72*10^{6})^{2}  } \\a=3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]

In the park, there are 25 pigeons, 15 squirrels, 5 rabbits, and 5 stray cats. Why
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Line graph should be used to show how one variable changes over time not to show multiple categories or variables are at one specific point in time.

Explanation:

In maths, statistics, and related fields, graphs are used to visually display variables and their values. In the case of line graphs, these are mainly used to display evolution or change of a variable over time. For example, a line graph can show how the number of divorces changed from 1920 to 2010.

In this context, the number of different animals in the park cannot be represented through a line graph because this situation does not imply a variable changing over time. Moreover, this situation includes multiple variables or categories of animals and the data shows only one specific point in time, which can be better represented through a bar graph.
