5. A construction worker on a high-rise building is on a platform suspended between two cables as illustrated below. The constru
Natalka [10]

Answer:

a) Tc = 750 [N]  ;b) See the explanation below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.

b)

The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.

a)

In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:

- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0

Tc = 750 [N]

The magnetic force on a straight wire 0.69 m long is 1.5 x 10-3 N. The current in the wire is 16.9 A. What is the magnitude of t
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Magnitude of magnetic field is 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

Given :

Current flowing through the wire, I = 16.9 A

Length of wire. L = 0.69 m

Magnetic force experienced by the wire, F = 1.5 x 10⁻³ N

Consider B be the applied magnetic field.

The relation to determine the magnetic force experienced by current carrying wire is:

F = ILBsinθ

Here θ is the angle between magnetic field and current carrying wire.

According to the problem, the magnetic field and current carrying wire are perpendicular to each other, that means θ = 90⁰. So, the above equation becomes:

F = ILB

B=\frac{F}{IL}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

B=\frac{1.5\times10^{-3} }{16.9\times0.69}

B = 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T

An atom of sodium has a larger mass than an atom of neon. How is this possible when neon has so many more valence electrons?
jeka94

The electrons contribute just about zero to the mass of an atom.
It takes more than 1,800 electrons to make the mass of one
proton or neutron.

The naturally occurring element with the most complex atom is
Uranium. That's element #92 , so a neutral uranium atom has
92 electrons.  It would take almost exactly 20 times that many
electrons to add the mass of one proton or neutron to the atom!
(And no other element has that many electrons in an atom of it.)

How does the law of inertia relate to how the planets in our solar system revolve around the sun?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The law of inertia relates to revolution of planets round the sun due to constant motion of the planets round the sun.

Explanation:

Law of inertia states that a body at rest or uniform motion will continue to be at rest or uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.

The gravitational force keeps the planets revolving round the sun in a uniform motion, this will continue till infinity unless equal and opposite force acts on our planets.

Therefore, the law of inertia relates to revolution of planets round the sun due to constant motion of the planets round the sun.

The closure temperature represents the point when ________. A. a magma cools to the point where minerals begin to crystallize B.
melomori [17]

The closure temperature represents the point when isotopes are no longer free to move out of a crystal lattice.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The closure temperature can also be termed as blocking temperature. It is mostly used in radiometric dating. As the temperature decreases, below a certain point the isotopes may get freeze in their lattice positions. And there may be slowing of diffusion.

At the closure temperature, that rate of diffusion will be zero as the isotopes will be no longer free to move out of crystal lattice. So, this is termed as closure or blocking temperature. As the isotopes loose their ability to move, their concentration will remain fixed in their position leading to measurement of radiation dating.
